Maybe all you need to do is ask "what has been repainted/repaired on this car" and you will get an answer.

Talked to owner yesterday, he’s selling as he prefers his e46 m3, he said front and rear bumper are repainted but no claims on car. The front bumper doesn’t line up to the hood, I’ll post the picture later. I didn’t see any mods other than the stereo, owners has no maintenance records so no knowledge of things like throttle value actuators or rod bearings being replaced. He’s very upfront about things, so I don’t think it hurts to ask.

It's not a desirable car and not necessarily a good buy but damn, an '84 Corolla sedan with 16,900 km. There's a nostalgia factor for me because it was my parent's first car and I grew up with it for 10 years.

Where\How does Splendid Auto keep finding these examples!?
There was a Mercury Lynx posted a few days ago that was in superb shape, too: Detailed Information - Splendid Automobiles Inc.

Splendid has been on a roll finding these 80s and 90s time pieces. Most cars were shit back then but it's nice seeing clean low mileage examples to remind us what mistakes we should never repeat. That Lynx was priced at $4800 btw.


This is the Escort equivalent to that Lynx

The only thing that's worth anything on that Lynx are the Marchal driving lights!

Steering wheel is heavily worn. Ghetto sub install in the trunk. Drove ok but I passed on it. Owner owns a shop and did say he prefers his e46 m3.

I feel like this car has been hit and repaired under the table for cheap.
