That's why you pay for the CARFAX before you buy your next used car!

I was just about to say, '
COMING SOON TO A USED CAR DEALER NEAR YOU!'
Carfax is only good IF the car gets 'reported', that means an insurance claim has to be filed and paid first.
I've seen firsthand what happens when drivers pay cash for damage, customer gets a carfax report, all is clear and they buy the car, when I get it on the rack it's another story.
Also, more importantly, there are MANY used car dealers that will make CASH offers for these -and similar- cars, and get them. We have two here in New Rochelle that do that, one is always bragging about how he gets these cars for next to nothing..they look great but they are all junk. He is always bringing us his latest purchase for some work before he does his magic touch up job and sells it, I feel sorry for the sucker who pays money for these wrecks.
Just another reason why I tell all of my customers/friends/family etc to have thier mechanic look at any used car they intend to purchase.
