Lohit,

All Fiat lovers love the Adventure.

A 2002 Adventure with only 38k seems hard to believe. I think you should very this claim first.

Spares: It will be more very difficult than the Palio spares since the vehicle is out of production and only a handful were ever sold here.

Price: If the vehicle is in mint condition, then 2.75L is a good deal.

To Verify:
01. FE: A badly maintained one can give in the range of 7kmpl. A well maintained one should be able to average about 10kmpl.

02. Check for the tyre ware. Since it has run only 38k, I assume the original tyres should still be on. Check for the date of manufacture on the tyre. If its a new one one find out the date.

03. Remember to check out the spare wheel as well.

04. If possible check for insurance claims.

05. Get it tested by a Fiat mechanic.

Though I love the Adventure very much, I would still stay away from a 2002 Adventure.
