Kia ora,

I'm looking at buying this car and I will get an AA inspection done on it. I'm hoping to get a transmission specialist look under the drain plug and take it for a test drive as I'm told these imports could have been driven in the snow. It hasn't done over 55,000 kms. I won't be towing anything heavy so won't need any after market air coolers and I will get an AA service being an import. I have got the Dog & Lemon Guide review on this car but anything else I should be wary of with this car and AWD system?

Thanks.

Hi there,
Just keep in mind that if anything should go wrong with the drive train- there may not be many parts available or they might have to come from Japan as the 4WD Atenza may not be too common here. I wouldn't think there would be much to go wrong with a vehicle like this one.

Thanks for that Cade.
