Could anyone please lend a hand in the Carfax department?

My dad needs a car desperately but is short on funds so our selection is pretty narrow. He's found what looks to be a good deal but I thought a Carfax would be good insurance.

Thanks in advance to anyone who could run this VIN 1YVGF22C8W5731734

Thanks again :cool:
