Hello, I have the same situation w/ my son.I cant imagin gettin any car w/
270,000km on it.Just think of all the ball joints, ect that will b
necessary to get this car through inspection----wow !!! Currently , we are
accessing a 90 ford ranger that the state has for sale at auction .It
dosent run and hasent for 3 years . 83,000 on the clock. No history either.
I contacted the state department that used it , and they said that it was
just not used much , then the battery went dead, the tires went flat and
about 1 inch of green alge grew all over the truck turning it green.Will I
buy it?Maybe the other bidders will b turned off by the way the truck
appears.I doubt it.It will probably b bid high.Just cant seem to find that
$100 car in good enough shape anymore.I am hoping for this chick magnet for
my son, but not for a high price.I look and look some more
