wonder if there is a correlation here confirming that the younger you are here, the richer you are....all of these 23-25 years olds rolling 6 figures with super model girlfriends...

I wonder if they are driving 10 year cars???

You drove the car for 15k miles. You pay for the maintenance.

There's no "yours or mine". They didn't sell it to you, but it isn't yours. You are currently driving it.

You may end up getting another car, at which point you will NOT sell the current car, you will return it to the family.

"Passed down" car, so to speak.

Ok, that helps clarify it. I'll put it this way : You drove it to the point it needed that maintenance. Do you *have* to pay for it? No. But you'd be a dick if you didn't. It sounds like you've assumed the car as your own for the past 15K miles, it's a given that you'd assume responsibility for it as well.

lol if you came to me asking me to pay for repairs for the car i would say fine. take the car in for repairs and let it sit in the driveway with a Fore sale sign. you sure in the hell wouldnt get it back.

This is why i refuse to sell big ticket items to relatives/friends.

Since this dead horse has already been beaten, I think I should beat it some more.

Think of it this way. What if you DIDN'T drive it for 15K miles. There would still be 75K miles on the car and NO major service due. Thus, you are the sole reason it needs the major 90K mile service. Since you are the reason for the service, you pay for the service.

What is the repair?

If its like a timing belt, and you don't own the car, then you pay 15/90ths of the cost and the previous driver pays the rest.

If its an oil change..well that should be on you.

 

[TridenT]

Never been serviced before? I say 83/17.

Who the heck knows what he did to it...

There is a major service at 90k miles.

Who pays the cost of the service?

Edit: I'm already paying for it you fucknuts. It's a fucking question. Sand in the vag, no?

Hey fuck you asswipe.

Yeah it IS a fucking question and people did answer it dipshit. You asked, they answered, what the fuck is your problem? Looks like you're the one w/ sand in the vag.

 

[SonnyDaze]

U drive. U pay.

 

[thomsbrain]

If it's "your" car now, you pay for it. No different than selling it to someone, IMO.

 

[Baked]

Doesn't really matter whose car it is, if you drive it, you pay for the maintenance. What a stupid question.

Why is that? You don't have the balls to tell them all sales are final and fuck off and die?

I'm not rich. I've got student loans that would be a nice down payment on a home.

Your high horse isn't the only ass around here. :laugh:

Define major service. If it was an underlying issue the previous owner caused, such as accidental damage that was not disclosed it may be nice if they owned up.


EDIT However in 99% of cases I can not see any scenerio in which the current owner, which I assume is you would be responsible for the repair.

my mom passed down a 84 toyota celica to me after my bro was done with college (he was spoiled, lol) i already had 2 cars and 3 kids of my own, she just didnt have room for it at her house. after she drove it for 80k and my bro ran it into the ground for the next 70k, i got it. lasted 2 months and the head gasket blew. she was like "wow, bummer, dood" when i told her about it lol. i donated it it to charity at that point.

 

[Kntx]

Where is the poll option for do not perform service?

 

[thescreensavers]

You are using the car now, you pay.

 

[Whisper]

As others have said, if the car is now fully in your possession, then you (or the current owner) should pay the 90k mile service.

However, if the person who drove those first 75k miles is still a co-owner/co-user, then he or she should be responsible for at least half the service/repairs.

 

[hydroponik]

I can imgaine what happened here.

Mommy's car, so she drove it for 75k, when OP turned 17, she gave the car to said OP. Now OP wants her to pay, what a douche move

Parent's car, so they drove it for 50k, gave it to oldest son for 2 years, he drove it to 75k, then gave it to brother. OP will pay for major service, proved that hydro has been smoking too much herb, and wins 10^10 battle points

I fixed your spelling.
