Ebay Car

Not sure why this one hasn't been bid higher. Claim is 31000 miles. If mileage is correct, I'm puzzled as to why it hasn't been bid up... Does anyone have a Carfax account to check this out? Curious. Looks like a great buy, but the engine compartment sure looks like a lot more mileage vehicle.

Looks a lot more like 131,000.... If not, that is the worst condition 31k mile car I've ever seen.

The Grand National you are bidding on is NOT as described, I was high bidder before and drove up to pick up the car, and drove it 1 block and that was enough, the power brake booster is shot and trans is ready to go, this is 130,000 mile car at best be cautious!




I do not personally know him, but car is from a car dealer, and has rust on door, (in 30k miles???)
my 2 cents!

Well at least it has a $2000 GNX turbo - "EVERYTHING ON THIS CAR IS THE FACTORY ORIGINAL EXCEPT THE TURBO. THE TURBO ON IT NOW IS A GARRET OFF OF A GNX."

Perfect example of how mileage is not the major factor of how much the car is worth, its the quality of the car that is the major factor.

Odometer looks legit, the numbers dont jump up and down like its rolled over 100K...

Under the hood looks like crap just like this car in ****ings motor news

I called about this car this week, owner says it has 47K on it..
View the picture, look at the aftermarket wiring to the factory fan,corrosion on the upper rad hose from the hose, rust all over the engine bay ect..

Neglect comes to mind..

PS, I dont even know or want to know what the black cable, that goes from the power steering resivior over the alternator to the core support does.
