Default Looking to purchase a H3

Hello

I am new to the forum and will be purchasing my first H3 within the next month. I have always loved this vechile and can now get one. So happy . Are there any years I should be concerned with for say common issues or things to look out for? I seen one at a dealership, its a 2007 with 115,000 kms. Sort of thinking of getting it. Any advice would greatly be appreciated.

Cheers

Welcome to the forum.

There were some head/valve issues with the 2006 and early 2007 models.
At 115,000 kms those issues would have shown up by now and if they did they were probably already taken care of.

In general you can tell if you are looking at an early 2007 vs. a later 2007 build by checking out the driver's inside door.
If the window and lock control buttons are on the flat of the armrest (like the 2006 models) then it's an early 2007 build.
If the controls are on the slant of the armrest then it's a later 2007 build.
