The red '99 v70r in queens, ny. you were on the fence on buying it. Some 19yo kid name Zach bought it. He posted here and at SwedeSpeed a half dozen times under the name Bagman1995. About a week and a half after buying it, he posted viscous coupler or propeller shaft problems. And didn't know if the car was worth fixing.

Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

Well, that's a shame...
He bought it for 4500 4 years ago in near mint shape and mechanically 100%. Now it's a filthy wreck. He removed the propshaft because the transfer case stopped working a month after he bought it. "Interior in fair condition"?? on what planet? Looks like somebody pissed in it. Doesn't look like he took any care of it at all.
I don't see him getting more than a grand from a regular person. I'm involved in a 1-800 Cash-for-Cars company now. $200, maybe 300 tops. It's too bad. At 170k on a relatively rare care, it's way under mileage. But it's shot.
