I sell used cars for a living. Here is my opinion: Not knowing the mileage and other info, I can only go by appearance. If I had to judge how the car was maintained by looks only, I would assume they took no pride of ownership on this vehicle. That would leave me to believe that the engine, trans, etc. have been neglected also. I would pass on this vehicle. If you do decide to buy it, my suggestion would to make no repairs at all! Just give it an oil change and put gas in it. Don’t fill it up… The junk yard won’t give you any extra money for a full tank when you junk it. Sorry to be so brutal… Offer the guy $700 and drive it till she dies. Anything that can drive away on its own power is worth $500-$1000. Good luck!
