Opinions please

Ok, so I went to look at a wagon for sale near me. Guy wants 1k firm. car has 170k miles.
Seams to run ok, guy says it has a problem starting now and then.

the good:
low-ish miles
yr88 paint(needs a clay bar and a wax stat)
clean-ish interior
excellent mechanical records
new tires
clutch done 40k miles ago
passes smog (important in california)


Bad:
pulls to the right. Guy says he took it for an alignment and the shop "couldn't bring it into spec"?
maybe more dents than I want to deal with
was bumped on the drivers door bad enough to push the door jamb tensioner into the body. door is sagging a little and there fore leaks at the top. guy tryed using silicone caulk to seal the top up. made a mess and did not work.
AC works but doesn't blow cold air. took it to a honda specialist and they quoted him 900 to get it working again.

What to do...

  • you should have posted some pixxx...

    thats what it is...

    I like horror...
    I think...
    :mrgreen:
  • Well, i told the guy if he still has it next month I'll take it. In the mean time I think I'll leave a note on this white wagon that is a mile or so from my house. I've never seen it move. Maybe owner needs a little money before christmas? =)

    As for the yr88 wagon. Also has no roof rack or passenger mirror. are these common to find elsewhere?
  • assuming
    are these common to find elsewhere?

  • Yes that's the one. The reason I didn't post pics is because the car looks alittle more beat up in person. Dent wise I mean.
    And as for common to find, I was refering to the stock roof rack and passenger mirror.
