You guys do a great job!May 13th, 2022 at 6:20pm ESTCICBarkeep (37) 0@hows I checked your profile and saw you were a dealer. Watching the auction was all for naught anyway, the boss said NO! Enjoy the car!!May 13th, 2022 at 6:07pm ESTbatto513 (1) 0@howS Yeah I was hoping to stay under $10,000 with some of the extra work it still needs and the fees plus flying out to get the car it got to high. Enjoy it!May 13th, 2022 at 6:06pm ESThowS (78) 0@CICBarkeep naaa I am a dealer, I have sold cars here and hundreds on BAT too. I just needed a wagon to replace one of our family cars and I couldn't find what I wanted in other markets. I am also a sucker for green cars. May 13th, 2022 at 6:05pm ESTCICBarkeep (37) 0@batto513 Too funny. I'm in the exact same boat. May 13th, 2022 at 6:05pm ESTMasondixoncraig (6) Seller 0Thanks for bidding on my car, everyone. May 13th, 2022 at 6:05pm ESThowS (78) 0@batto513 that was my last bid and I almost posted that in case you wanted it more than me. I think the price was a grand more than I wanted to pay plus the fee but I need a wagon and I like green. A fair bit of the heavy lifting in service has been done. I am sure it needs more. May 13th, 2022 at 6:03pm ESTbatto513 (1) 1@howS Yeah I was finnaly going to give the boot to my minivan with this ride. On to the next one.May 13th, 2022 at 6:03pm ESTCICBarkeep (37) 1I'm going to tell my wife she broke my heart although something tells me @howS wasn't going to let this one go. May 13th, 2022 at 6:02pm ESThowS (78) 2well, I paid more than I should have. But I am a sucker for green cars and I need a wagon.

This one appears very tidy and well serviced. Thanks for the answer.May 12th, 2022 at 12:33pm ESTMasondixoncraig (6) Seller 0@howS . . . interesting and excellent idea. I don't have a paint meter handy to take any pics of the readings, but this a good idea for the MB Market to consider adding to their tips and recommendations for auction photos in the future. To the point this observation brings up, there are clearly one or two places on the car where minor paint work has been done. There is some minor road rash on the nose that has been covered, and I detect some slight changes in the paint shading on the left rear fender panel. Appears to be nothing serious, and pre-dates my ownership of the car by some time. Wasn't at all a concern to me with a vehicle from 2008, but worth knowing about.May 12th, 2022 at 12:29pm ESTMasondixoncraig (6) Seller 0@howS . . . great question. Two keys. Both working.May 12th, 2022 at 12:27pm ESThowS (78) 0Sorry if I missed it..... How many keys?May 12th, 2022 at 12:25pm ESThowS (78) 0I would love to see some paint meter shots.

I have not attempted to remove them myself, but yes I agree. Since they are aftermarket installation, they should not be difficult to remove.May 5th, 2022 at 10:49am ESTCICBarkeep (37) 0I'm assuming the "entertainment centers" can be removed?May 5th, 2022 at 10:05am ESTthembmarket (691) 0A startup/idling video and a video of the underbody have been added to the listing. May 4th, 2022 at 11:35pm ESTMasondixoncraig (6) Seller 1@KingKitty Thanks for sharing your expertise here! This may help explain why the other two mechanics said nothing. Based on your comment here, you have deep expertise and are probably right about the bushings. May 4th, 2022 at 11:16pm ESTKingKitty (69) 1@Masondixoncraig - Just to clarify (again): Was the damage they reported to the guide itself, or were they talking about it needing bushings? For what it's worth, picture #150 is the transverse control arm (front), not the rear suspension. I've been under hundreds of these cars, and from what I can see in the picture (146) without the cover off, nothing is amiss with either rear guide (they're not called "swing arms"). I suspect the suggestion regarding wear pertaine
