Vehicle Detail
2002 Mercury Mountaineer - V8 Engine - 4x4 - 155,836 Miles Strong motor and tranny. No engine noises, leaks, misfire or smoking. Tranny is strong - no leaks. Truck goes to the highest bidder in "As Is" condition. No Reserve! No Buy It Now! Please Don't Ask! Front differential is defective and has a small gear oil leak. Truck is driveable (we drove it about 18 - 19 miles mostly at highway speeds) and the front differential makes a horrendous noise - kind of like a "clunk", "bang", "scrunch" noise. Although we drove it (saving the cost of a tow) I strongly recommend shipping. I think we were lucky to make it back. Tires are kind of bald, brakes feel fine. I think the wheels on the truck are Chevy wheels as the center cap emblem indicated. Don't ask me why - I don't know. "Check Engine" light is on (because of the differential) and the windshield has a crack in the lower portion. Body is nice, as you can see, so is the leather interior. Has a 3rd row seat and a working sunroof. There is no warranty or guarantee. TRUCK SHOULD BE SHIPPED AND NOT DRIVEN. Because this vehicle will not pass NY State inspection ... New York residents are unable to bid or buy unless they are a registered car dealer, registering/re-titling the vehicle out of state or are using it for “Parts Only”. When a car is sold as “Parts Only’ or “Salvage” it must pass a NY State “Salvage Inspection”. This is done to keep rebuilt wrecks that are unsafe off the road – especially vehicles with frame damage or airbag deployment. My cars are rarely rebuildable wrecks and therefore will pass this strict inspection process when the problem that is advertised is corrected. There are about 10 to 15 NY State salvage inspection sites in NY State – 2 or 3 are on Long Island and there are a couple in NY City. Call me for further clarification. As a registered NY State dealer I am unable to sell a car that won’t pass inspection to a NY State resident. Anyone else can bid and buy. Sorry, I don’t make the rules but as a used car dealer I must abide by them. Any questions call 516-228-1016 and leave a message if I’m not in. Please don’t wait until the last day or last few hours to contact me. Please speak clearly. I will pick you up at the train or bus station. Winning bidder please leave a $300.00 deposit (of which $50.00 is non-refundable) in PayPal within 48 hours of the auction close. If I don't receive the deposit within the 48 hours I will relist the car. Please plan on picking this vehicle up within 15 days of the auction close unless you have made prior arrangements with me before bidding. If the vehicle is left after 15 days your deposit becomes non-refundable and I will relist the vehicle. All vehicles that run and drive are driven at least 10 to 20 miles and usually 30 to 40 miles. I try to describe these vehicles to the best of my 35 years of experience. Our familiarity with these autos is limited to the miles we drive them. Please be aware of this when bidding. As always, if the winning bidder is not happy after road test and examination, I will cancel the sale and refund $250.00 of your deposit. 60% of my Ebay sales go to “phantom bidders” or “no-show” bidder. Look for the vehicle to be relisted after 48 hours. “A bid on eBay is considered a contract, and you're obligated to purchase the item.” Final sale price is what you pay! (New York residents must pay sales tax and inspection fee when applicable.) There are no extra hidden fees!!! Good luck and thanks for looking!
