I offered 12k and he accepted. I show up and inspect the van. It’s really clean.
He shows me title and registration and they don’t match. I ask if he has the title and he says he will get the right one. He runs up to an office where we met and gets the correct one. Before he left I asked if the title was clean. He said yes.
He shows up and then tells me the title is salvaged. He lied.
Then he tells me the damage was on slider side. He knew.
I inspect and can’t see anything.
I later had a friend who was also interested call and he told him the damage was on the driver side.
Said he owned for 3 years initially then said 2 later.
Said he was going into military and had to leave that’s why he was selling.
No maintenance records.
No oil on dipstick. Almost appeared dry.
I honestly think he was gonna take my cash, give me the wrong title...(the one that was clear) for me to later find the problem that it was salvaged.
By then too late because he would be out of town and gone...or have spent the money.
It felt really fishy and I’m glad I didn’t buy.
He NEVER mentioned a rental...
His dad has a legit 4x4 Sportsmobile I saw in one of the pics he sent me.
Don’t buy this van unless you’re ready for surprises...
