Default What to check when buying used xB?

Hi, this is my first post. I'd like to know if there is anything specific about the xB that I should make a point of checking when looking at a used xB, any known trouble areas. I've been lurking and searching the web, and so far it seems that these vehicles are so bulletproof that they don't have any frequent issues. Thanks.

Welcome to the site.
Nothing really major to look out for just regular maintanance + repairs. SL people have high mileage up to 100,000 - 315,000 with the same engine.. Looks like its bullet proof. LOL But, On the 1st gen xb, some people have had problems with the rear hatch handle breaking + the door lock actuator/motor needing replacement. Should u have any more questions were all here to help if possible. Another good site for xB info is clubxb.com.

Good Luck........
