[quote=Anonymous]We have two cars; one from a guy on Craigslist and one from the neighborhood listserv. Both had +100k miles when we bought them to give you an idea. I didn't take these cars to anyone to check but here's what I could have done: I have my own independent mechanic and I would give him $50 to give it a quick peak on the lift and a drive around the block. There would be an implicit assumption that he would be the one fixing it for the next 5 years and/or listening to me complain about it. I trust him. If that sounds like too much, just pay the extra money to buy from a place where you have some recourse if things go sideways after the sale.[/quote]
