BY the description on e-mail including pictures supplied by the dealer, europa-online, this was a 1 owner 47,000 mile car in perfit condition, when delivered I had to drive 3 miles to pickup as trucker could not get up my street, the car had no gas, my house was closer than gas station,I ran out of gas before I got home,
the pictures on line showed no dents, but when car arrived there was a dent that clearly was not in pictures on line; also the piece on molding was broken off the rear bumper that was not on car pictures on line; the dealer new this because they provided the repair piece with car BUT I have no clue how to install, must take to a body shop & pay to install!
also the ad in ebay said that car had passed inspection, that was not true, the car would not pass inspection in NH, the rear tires were almost bald & the top front left ball joint was in very bad shape, I had 10 days to get inspection after registration, I drove about 350 miles before it was noticed, the mechanic said If I had gone couple of hundred miles more, the wheel would have fallen off. I have had to but (4) brand new tires + replace ball joint.
I sent e-mail to dealer with no response, I did send it only 1 time;
I actually probably paid more than auction price cause I had them stop auction & paid $8000 + 475.00 shiping, add another $700-800 for repairs SO FAR!
I had choice of 2 cars at time, the 1 I purchased from dealer in PA vs Dealer in FL, Fl dealer was cheaper, miles approx same, both 1 owner cars, but PA dealer was closer so shipping was less. I should have bought from FL dealer
