Hi, I have been the only owner/driver of this car for the past 4 years. I bought it used when it had 16,000 miles on it. It’s been a perfect car for leisure- no complaints after 4 years (55000 miles of driving). If I didn’t have to move to the city, I’d keep driving it. I kept it in a very tidy and clean condition: I have always changed the oil on time and never missed a single maintenance appointment. In the photos, you can see a few minor scratches on the sides, mainly due to the carelessness of other drivers in parking lots, etc.
You might have noticed a relatively low price on this car. However, the car has been perfect, and hasn’t been broken a single time, though it has a “salvaged” stamp on it. I bought it from a car dealer near Washington DC, and he told me this story. The car belonged to one family, and it happened to be on a street that was affected by Sandy Hurricane. Some part of the street got flooded, but the car was not touched by water at all. Previous owners still had a right to return the car to their insurance company, even though it wasn’t damaged. They returned it, and the insurance company sold the car on auction to the dealer with a “salvaged” stamp.
It is up to you whether believe in this story or not, but personally based on car’s performance, I tend to trust the dealer. As I said before, I haven’t had a single problem with it. Over the years, I have only had to worry about regular maintenance like oil change, accumulator replacement (due to the age), inspections, etc. Nothing related to its being “salvaged”. That’s why the price is lower than the other cars like this on the market.
The car is perfect for family, personal, and work travel use. It already passed the NY Salvage Vehicle Examination, and nothing was reported.
If you need more photos, feel free to contact me.
