In addition to the 60,000 service, I would also get the brake fluid changed. This is recommended every 2 years. I would also run a few tank fulls of fuel injector cleaner. I like the Chevron brand which you can purchase at any auto supply store. Enjoy the car!

There's a list of maintenance on renntech here: http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?autocom=maint&code=maint_menu_box

That should be a good start.

Without knowing the history of the car or how it was cared for, I would suggest doing everything just to be on the safe side. I am in the same boat with my 2001 box "s", it just turned 60k . Rather than risk it I will just get it over with now.

You bought a car like this that has no maintenance records for the last 50,000 miles? Wow, you've got more guts than I do.

I trust you had a thorough PPI done on it before handing over the cash...
