Huh.

A machine that can cease functionality because someone took three seconds to put a traffic cone on it and then can only be restarted by having a third party physically come out to remove the cone seems like a machine that doesn’t need to be on the road to begin with.

“Selvage” title and pre-Selvage pictures?  Run away!

I believe the ad indicates it comes with a “selvage” title in which case absolutely ND.

I am going to steal “Weapons grade crazy” for my personal vernacular. 

LOL.

This is weapons-grade crazy. Anyone looking to spend six figures on a car isn’t looking for cars on Craigslist.

With every sale like this I’m growing more convinced that the used car market is just getting used for money laundering. 

I must have the wrong career, wrong job or am bad at money. I can’t imagine having a $1000 car payment on a single vehicle. No way it would fit in my budget.

OTOH, a MINI might be the only 2000s car that’s *less* reliable than a 1980s VW. ;)

refilling it doesn’t fix the leak.

Easy “no dice” - in part because I just made a very, VERY similar purchase:

Just making sure I didn’t have to scroll far before the first “bitch basket” reference came up.

Seals and some gaskets are turning to dust. Not sure if this engine uses timing belts or chains, so that’s another issue.  The lack of use over the years will cause problem after problem.
