    Kennan, the car you want is a dirt-cheap vehicle just for your commute, thus saving needless wear on your BMW (or worrying about it getting up to temperature).
    Even a Nissan Leaf would be a good buy. Yes, it's a garbage car, but not if you're only using it for a short, daily commute in traffic. (And you'll appreciate an automatic in this instance.)

    Great job Kennan. Thumbs up. Thank you for keying on seller honesty. I'm glad I bought on Cars & Bids, but I bought from the wrong seller--an unscrupulous dealer.
    I was a victim of the lack of honesty from a seller. I asked about an obvious dent on the driver's side door. The seller answered that "it looks like somebody hit it with their butt." I wound up buying the 4Runner and upon delivery, I found a very obvious bent and rusted B pillar. When I contacted the seller, I was told that nothing about any accidents was on the Carfax. What a loser. If I could see the rusted & bent B pillar, so could a car dealer. Conveniently, the photos taken by the seller just barely excluded this part of the vehicle. What a rat. I also found after purchasing the vehicle that there was about 1/4 of a broken rear window in the hollow of the rear hatch of the 4Runner. The vehicle had been hit from behind and not reported to Carfax. I found the broken glass in the hollow of the rear hatch because each time I closed the hatch I could hear something jostling around inside the hatch. And to make matters worse, the plastic vapor barrier which keeps the mechanism of the rear hatch dry, was removed and nowhere to be found. Another clue the truck had been hit from the rear. Please be careful when buying.

    • @Bzt3819
      @Bzt3819 29 днів тому

      Not all accidents or services are reported to CarFax, it should never be used solely as 100% credible history for a car. Also, Cars&Bids is just a marketplace, a handshake if you will. They haven’t seen 99% of the cars on their site, bids are not legally binding, and you should do due diligence and get a PPI when buying a car sight unseen. I’m sorry for your bad experience

    It’s amazing how few people clean the engine bay before selling - or even loaning to Doug for a review! It’s hilarious how many times he reviews a car, pops the hood, and there are leaves and other debris in the engine bay. I mean, you don’t need to do a full detailing, but at least clean debris out and give a wipe-down with a wet rag!

    A detailed engine bay masks oil leaks, extreme grease & grime, etc. that may have been there before the cleaning, eliminating any insight you may have had into how the owner cared for the car or any potential issues that may have otherwise been obvious. I much prefer cars where the owner was simply wiping down the top of the engine, with the rest of the engine bay in its natural condition that I can compare against the age & mileage of the car.
