Up for auction is my personal vehicle, a 2007 Ford Escape XLT 4WD with a V6 engine and 104, 657 miles. Runs great in the snow! Clear title! She's been my personal, daily commuter for years, but I've bought a new vehicle and unfortunately have to sell her to help pay for it. The vehicle is metallic green with a gray, cloth interior. Completely smoke free owner (I'm allergic to tobacco smoke). On the inside, there has been a Sony XPLOD system installed, which allows you to use your cellphone/iPhone hands free with bluetooth through the radio, as well as stream music from your Bluetooth equipped device using an app such as Pandora. You can also use the USB input to attach an MP3 player or iPod. The vehicle is being sold as is, with no warranty. I have been driving the vehicle daily for years with no issue, but there are a few items the bidder should be aware of. First, there is some damage to the left rear door (view picture) - this occurred when another car hit the door at low speed a number of months ago. The damage seems to be entirely cosmetic, and I have been driving with it this way for months with no issue, though it does make the door not close completely. I am told by the body shop that it can likely be easily fixed by simply replacing the door - which can be done quite cheaply by getting the door from a salvage yard (local shops said once I had a door, the cost to actually have it put it on is $100 or less). There are also some dints, dings, and scratches in the vehicle, such as the front bumper and a large dent near the left rear door. The inside has some spots/stains on the carpet. Windshield was fully replaced due to crack. I just had my vehicle at the Ford dealership (I have regular maintenance and oil changes performed at Ford on schedule) and they said the right front wheel bearing needs replaced. To my knowledge, these are the only current issues with the vehicle. She runs and drives great (though there is some noise from the wheel bearing that needs changed), and this is a great chance for someone who has access to a cheap replacement door or garage to get a wonderful vehicle at a steal and fix it up themselves. I really need the money for my new car, so I am letting the bidders completely control the process - I am setting the starting bid far below Kelly Blue Book value with NO RESERVE. That's right - whoever wins this auction, no matter how low the price, will get this great car! Buyer is responsible for any transportation or shipping costs.On Mar-14-13 at 19:07:58 PDT, seller added the following information: To clarify about the door: the cost to have it put on, if you manage to find and purchase a matching door at a scrapyard or on eBay, it is around $100 to put it on according to places I have spoke to. This is just to put one on and hook it up as is. This does not include the cost of getting the door or painting it to match. If the door you purchase does not match, the door will have to be painted to match and that will increase the cost quite a bit (or you can have a non matching door). This is clearly stated in the original description but I want to reclassify so potential bidders knows. Also the $100 is just what my local shop quoted me, your local auto body shop may have different prices. Happy bidding!
