Here's a 2004 Ford Crown Victoria P71 Police Interceptor I purchased in MO a month or so ago. The good: I have not test driven this car much because it doesn't have plates. I have taken it down the road locally a few times and it seems to drive well. The interior is clean overall. The seats are in good condition. Since the car is from Missouri, overall the body is very good with no visible rust. The car got new spark plugs last week. The brakes are 50% in the front and 60% in the rear remaining. The rear doors have all of the lock and latch mechanisms in them. Most cop cars do not. I have a clean MO title in hand. Car has no major oil leaks or serious mechanical problems that I could find. These cars were advertised to get 24mpg highway. Not too bad! These cars are built for long term heavy service. That's why taxi companies drive them. It's got cop shocks, cop brakes, etc... The bad: Car has 124K miles on it, so everything is not "brand new" tight. It has some rattles and squeaks. The paint is not too good. The black is faded and chalky. It is flaked in multiple spots. It has some scratches and areas that are peeling. Cup holder cover is broken off. See pic. The roof has some small dents and holes in it from equipment. The rear door on the driver's side has a dent. See pic. The corner of the trunk lid his a ding and some small dents. The tires are 30-40% remaining. One rear inner door handle is broken. Not the mechanism, just the handle. If you are looking for a cheaper but reliable car to drive, this car is for you. Keep in mind that this is a cheaper car that's 10+ years old. So, it's not perfect. I have described this car to the best of my knowledge and tried to point out any flaws that I could find. Please email with questions before bidding. Thanks for checking it out!!

Sorry I forgot to list that. *** On Mar-29-14 at 12:30:40 PDT, seller added the following information: Inner rear door handle is NOT broken on this car. That was on the listing template and I forgot to get it deleted. ***IMPORTANT!!!*** I sold another car last week and this would be the third time (out of 3 cars sold on eBay) that the person did not read the terms of payment/sale before bidding. I do not want a problem with this car's sale like I have with all 3 of the others. I got the other cars paid for, but 2 of the sales took 2 months to get settled. I'd like to avoid that here.

Balance of car is paid IN CASH when you pick the car up no more than 7 days after the end of the auction (unless you and I make other arrangements PRIOR to you bidding). No personal checks.
