Peter -- did you ever get a CarFax on it? I would be very careful buying on eBay... but I know you have already been cautioned on that! Good luck, whatever you do... </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

thanks for the advice. Seller does not have a carfax. I was hoping someone here might be willing to help me out with that.

So please.

Sorry I don't have unlimited access to CARFAX neither. But I'd be very very careful buying any used car over ebay or anywhere sight unseen I'm sure you've been warned but I had to warn you again.

For this specific vehicle, I clicked around for you and noticed the seller feedback (3rd one) it had an incomplete transaction but take a look at the closing price. Also, I'd question the fact why on earth would anyone sell this vehicle "no reserve" and the current bidding price is well below the trade in value?

In case you are not familiar with the used car market, you can find a lot of info at the following sites:

http://www.autotrader.com
http://www.edmunds.com
http://www.kbb.com

By looking up the current market value, at least you'd know if something is extraordinary cheap and if it's too good to be true, it probably is
