Re: I sold my Civic!
 

I sold my civic. I wrote on there 'as-is' in the bill of sale. The kid (junior in high school) had it for two weeks and blew it up 'driving normally'... whcih he eventually admitted to driving it 'like a boosted car' = beating the ---- out of it. Put a rod through the block. He called me and wanted his money back, which I was not about to buy a broken car back from him.

He kept the car, no legal action or anything happened to me, not that it could have happened.

No matter how shady it seems, if you told him everything and it blows up on him (whether the first day or the second or a year from the sale) you told him exactly what it was and that is a chance you take buying a used car (aka 'someone else's headaches')

Keep the money and don't buy it back. It is not your fault.

I'd feel bad for the guy too, I know how you're feeling, but he bought something with a known engine problem.

Well, what was he expecting?

Re: I sold my Civic!
 

how much did you stress the fact that the car has a fucked engine?

now that i think about it.. if he drops in a engine for 700 bucks.. and he paid 1800 for the car.. so thats 2500 for a running civic sedan?

you couldnt even find one for 2500 :)

tell him that.. and dont give him ---- ;)

also stress the fact that he's a retard :P

---- it, you paid ffor towing. That's more than enough sympathy.

Re: I sold my Civic!
 

remeber when this ---- happened to me.
I ended up payin half of the estimate.

i was kinda forced to. i would have told him its his car, he bought it as-is, he hopped in it and hauled ass after it sat for months :1
I would tell him, you paid for the towing, the rest is on him.
