HnB,

As for the "1 owner" that is easily confirmed by getting a carfax done, which by the way, I would not even begin to buy a car without carfaxing it!! This will also let you know somewhat if the seller is being straightforeward. (a little anyway).

I truly believe a buyer knows what to listen to, look for, etc. for when buying a used car, if you have to ask, then by all means have a mechanic check it out. Not trying to sound rude by any means, but from the vagueness of your description its kinda hard to tell. Now....of course all vx's have the querks, power windows and a few others listed all over the forums.

Assuming nothing negative came back from the carfax and it runs good, it sounds like a good price. Is it all stock?, just curious.

As for the seat height issue, all 3 years are the same, however my drivers seat has been lowered.

Hope that helps a bit
