My sister in law has been without a car (she wrecked hers) and been using mine. she finally got 3k saved and wanted a one.
she works as a waitress at a local place. a guy over heard her how she needed one. he told her he had a 2002 chevy caviler with 122k miles he would sell her for $2500.
she took me to look at it.
the car looks amazing. no dents, no scratches new tires, new brakes, and just had a tune up. he claimed that he purchased it from a lady down the road for his wife. she didn't like it (she is pregnant and its a 2 door) and wanted a larger 4 door.
he said i couldnt drive it because no insurance (i have full covorage and yes this should was a sign) he drove it down the street and back.
then he told us the title was messed up. he signed it when he got it from the other lady but never put it in his name. so he wanted to put it in my SIL and his name.
i told my SIL lets think about it and continue to look and we went home.
he went to her work and told her she need to decide so she went and bought it. No i was not happy.
When i drive it it grinds EVERY time i put it in 2nd gear (i have been driving stick for about 20 years). i told her that was nto good. she called the guy and he came out and drove it. it didn't grind once.
i figured out how he did that this morning (haven't had the car 24 hours yet). seems he would let the RPM go down all the way before shifting to 2nd.
i also suspect it been in a wreck. should run a car fax on it bah. not happy
so could it be the clutch? gearbox?
