Considering purchasing an '89 750iL...

[The Transporter]

Can anyone give a heads-up as to problems I should be aware of with this year, and / or things I should look for when I inspect the car?

Also, are wide grille kits made for this car?


Thanks..and sorry if I don't make sense, hehe. (4:30 AM)

if you cant do your own work.....you may need to sell a kidney to afford it(and not the kidney grill either)

but it will have the wide grill,the 735's had the skinny one and the 750's had the wide grill.

You can buy my 91 750iL, there is a photo in the gallery. She has just over 100k on her, was just tuned up, and has had the transmission serviced, coolant replaced, power steering fluid replaced, brakes, driveshaft and more.

My biggest comcern is something major breaking. The two "drive by wire" electrical motors are about $900.00 each from the dealer. Spark plug wires are $600.00, and there are two rotors and caps. The car has two air filters, two fuel filters and more. I have not had any major problems with mine.
