Default Re: how do you purchase a good vehicle?

I have bought two cars from the REPO Auction. My first car was a 97' Mecury Sable with 60k miles. I bought for 3,800. It was fully loaded. I drove it for a year. Had to make a 1,000 of repairs to the engine (transmission). Then it was totaled in a car accident. The insurance gave me 6700 for it. This is after driving it for 2 years.

I then bought a 95' Nissan Altima GXE with 80k miles for 2,000 I have made no repairs what so ever and have drove it for going on 4 years I believe. It now has 127K and is running strong.

I have had great luck with auctions. You can get the car at a fraction of its worth but there is no gaurentee.
