This is a fully functional scratch and dent vehicle. It has noticeable outward wear from driving in the city for 15 years and the passenger side window won't roll up but otherwise completely functional and has relatively low mileage for its age. I've owned this car for almost it's entire life. I bought it used from the dealership with 1900 miles on it and have been the sole owner of it ever since. It has been inspected by mechanic and pertinent things have been replaced (see mechanical section) except for the window, it likely will require a new motor installed. Car passed an emissions check 4 months ago. Car has a CD player / AM FM radio / Sirius satalite radio and a mini phono jack for an iPod / MP3 Player. Cigarette lighter / power jacks both in front and in back of the cab. Seats in back can be folded down, folded up to the sides, or removed all together resulting in nearly 100 cubic feet of storage space. All interior surfaces are rubber and plastic making them extremely durable, easy to clean and hard to damage. Mechanical: I've kept the car well maintained internally. I changed the oil regularly and had parts replaced along the recommended life cycle. Most recent parts replaced were the front breaks (2 months ago) alternator (1 month ago) battery (1 month ago) serpentine belt (1 year ago) air filters (1 month ago), passenger side mirror (6 months ago). The tires are 1 year old and have plenty of tred left on them. Transmission mount was replaced 2 1/2 years ago. Control arms were replaced 2 years go. The car also has an aftermarket anti-theft "cat clamp" attached to the catalytic converter. The car has never been in a major accident. I've had a few parking lot bumps and so forth but nothing that has ever required mechanical repair. It's never been flooded, totaled or majorly damaged. The only known mechanical issue with the car at this point is that the passenger side window rolled down and then would not roll up again. According to my mechanic this is the window assembly and would cost between 200 and 300 dollars to repair. All the other windows work fine. Exterior: I have been less stringent on fixing issues with its outward appearance. All the glass on the vehicle is unbroken and uncracked. The plastic panels are grayed from their original color by natural sun exposure. Paint color is as it was when I bought it. There is some significant scratching and denting on the body from driving in the city. The most noticable is on the passenger side where there are a few deep scratches across the doors and a 1/2th inch indent on the side cab panel near the passenger door that causes a creaking sound when opening the passanger side door. This damage about 18 months ago when someone sideswiped me in a low speed situation. It has been appraised for mechanical damage was told it was superficial. Some minor dings on driver side door and suicide doors and bumper. One of the plastic panels on the passenger side is loose and dented, I've had it secured with some tape for some time with no issue but can be easily fixed. Car has spent most of its life in Los Angeles stored in doors and has no signs of rust whatsoever. Interior: The driver side seat has an area that is cracking from sun damage and has lost some of the foam inside the cushion from years of use. Otherwise the seats, panels and other parts of the interior are functional and clean. Terms: The car is owned by me, not leased, so I can sign over the title directly.
