Kia Rondo 2007
Only 76,000 miles!
New tires ($450!)
Mechanics special
Runs great but needs TLC to stay on the road:
Minor issues:
Missing 1 of 3 catalytic converters. Usually cheap to replace and may not even be required, but causes car to run loud and may not pass emissions test without it.
Needs new oil pan, the current one is rusted.
Needs alignment.
Larger issue:
The frame has at least one spot of bad rust. My mechanic says there are options but it's not worth it to me. The frame will need to be patched or replaced.
The car currently runs great and is drivable, but I'm told that I shouldn't keep driving it without fixing the frame rust. My loss is your gain. $1000 obo.
