I would agree that the Foretravel U320 is a tank compared to many others. I have a neighbor with an older 320 and it is still solid after many, many miles.
Unless you think the running gear has really been neglected, just plan on spending about $2,000 on a thorough chassis service; oil, filter, fuel filters, air dryer, air filter, chassis lube, new belts/hoses, coolant drain/flush/refill with long life coolant, tranny service. As you have noted, engine oil and tranny oil analysis can confirm a lot...either good health or neglect/problems.
When we got our new-to-us CC, even though there were service records and evidence of proper maintenance, we still had Cummins Coach Care go over the chassis and do additional maintenance that gave us peace of mind.
