So I stumbled upon this Alero that has 40kms, test drove it the other day runs smooth as hell. Mechanic is selling it for 2,500 CAD with Safety. Only problem for is that the exterior of the car has quite a bit of rust.
Is it worth it?
The rust is a concern. Have a mechanic inspect it especially the undercarriage. The car is 23 years old. 2500.00 CD is not bad for used car in running condition. Just remember you get what you pay for.
If it has been well maintained maybe it could be ok. Definitely find out the real reason he’s selling it and get an inspection from a third party mechanic.
Just be aware, you’re talking about a 23 year old Alero. Wouldn’t take much to have a problem that costs more than the car is worth.
It scares me when I see one with that low miles. Has it been sitting or something?
