i am looking into buying a 200 suzuki grand vitara; it has 72000 miles and they are asking $2000. The seller says it needs a new timing belt andnd he just recently took the engine out to fix oil leaks and did o rings in the block (idk what that means), i am just wondering if this car is worth it or should i just walk away?

If you like the car, for a small fee most mechanics will give it a good look over, the owner should not mind if they have nothing to hide.
