I'm form south of England & the car came up way north, the trunk/boot leaked badlly,all 4 tyres v.bad, no washer fluid,coolant low,oil filter looked like 3 yrs old! Front wiper squeaked badly,rear wiper was pulled off, the gearbox CVT juddered when pulling off. Had FSH (Full Service History) but the oil filter was real rusty! Silicone on the oil drain plug. It even had the bar code sticker you get from a car auction!

As a person who is doing a ground-up restoration of a GMT800 Avalanche, be advised that the tonneau covers tend to collect water in them over time when the vehicle is left outside. The absorbent foam in them will then corrode the tonneau handles, resulting in the panels not sitting flush with the rails and allowing water to intrude into the bed and rusting the spot welds once the water seeps below the bed mat. As long has the cover handle brackets aren’t corroded and the spot welds under the mat aren’t bubbling, you should be okay.

@@jochenstacker7448we don't see a lot to determine if it is or isn't, 26k miles doesn't make a lick of difference or change it being 20+ years old! 26k miles means it probably wasn't often washed, the leather wasn't even getting oil from being sat on and sitting outside in California is going to mess stuff up! Scratches, crashes and shit work are no indication of how many miles a vehicle has. The issue is the dude said it was perfect.... Miles don't matter. HOWEVER I could see the front bumper hit, scratches on the hood and wheel well being transport as well as the broken switch on the seat and missing door trim depending on how budget they went on the shipping!

I'm not going to buy anymore vehicles sight-unseen. I've been mildly burned twice now on BaT, buying low mileage cars. The first one smelled like an ashtray when it arrived. Naturally, the ashtray was missing because the dealer just threw it out because it smelled so bad. The second purchase was just dirty and smelly inside and I spent $250 for an interior extraction, plus lots of little flaws that should have been disclosed. BaT should do better policing of sellers, considering its upper-end retail auction prices.

You don't want to own it through, owned 1 for 2 months(with the tspark 4 cilinder) and gave it away because the brakes gave up on me. Tried to use the handbrake to stop, but that broke as well. Took me like 500meters to get to a stop by braking on the engine/ hitting a curb.

The main problem with alfa romeo its the lack of maintenance cause are a bit more delicate than other brands. Its true that in spain the rust its not a problem, something less to worry about. But if you really like a car, dont mind how much it cost to repair or the problems it have. (that go for all brands, any of them are free of problems)

@@joshpinchuk7061 sorry I thought you were talking strictly about Corvette's not just in general. Nissan had a 6 speed in 89, that is the only one I know off the top of my head. A quick Google search though yielded the result that Alfa Romero in 1967 had the first 6 speed manual in a car. Issue with most cars is 6th gear is just a second overdrive! Considering that's the main reason for it was to meet EPA regulations. It would be nice if they geared them for acceleration in the lower gears. It's funny when people ask "is it a 6 speed?". Even funnier, high horsepower T56's delete 5th gear! Anyway....

I once bought what appeared to be a perfect low mile car from a 90 year old college professor who was famous in his field and lived in a custom mansion. I figured he had to be trustworthy so I skipped the pre-purchase inspection. Indeed, it served me well, but a few years later I sold it to Carmax and they told me the entire rear end had been rebuilt. Apparently the old man was rich enough to pay for the repairs out of pocket so it didn't reflect on the Carfax. I don't trust anybody anymore.

That's shitty of CarMax to lie to you like that..... Isn't really much of a surprise however since they try to screw anyone and everyone! What you mean the entire rear end was rebuilt?
