2011 Toyota RAV4
Is this a good car to purchase. It has the 3.5 V6 engine, 5sp trans w/od, 4 wheel drive, 80,843 on the odometer, in one minor accident to left front corner of car, 2T3DK4DV3BW042122 is the VIN number, made in US, I’m guessing Indiana. Has had 2 owners locally within 60 miles, in the Wilmington, NC, 28403 zip code, and Myrtle Beach, SC areas. For sale at a used car lot. They want 14,480 for it. What do you think? Saw the car on Car Gurus. Have not gone to look at it or test drive or have a mechanic look at yet yet. Waiting to see what you have to say.
So first of all you're saying a used car lot; well it's the worst and least trustworthy place to buy a used car from. I don't like dealerships either but I still prefer them with used over used car lots. If you have to buy this car definitely have a trusted independent mechanic check it. And definitely check to make sure it wasn't in an accident or a salvage title. If you can avoid buying from a used car lot that's the best option.
1) Assuming it is in good condition and a honest mechanic verified this hood condition.
2) The accident was only a fender bender, and did not compromise the structure or the mechanicals of the vehicle.
3) Assuming comps are within the same range in your area.
Yes!
If any of the above are a miss, then no.
