Skip Miller
Final Approach
I have been reluctantly talked in to getting a car for my daughter in college.
We are looking for something well used, probably in the 100,000 mile range, probably Japanese, definitely front wheel drive or 4WD. (This car must navigate Chicago winters...) Proximity to Chicago is a plus but not necessary. A Subaru Wagon would be ideal. We are planning on buying where is, as is, and (depending on the car) I will probably redo the front end, tires, brakes, etc - safety items as necessary.
I am very reluctant to buy such a car without a reliable glimpse into the car's history... that's where you guys come in. I won't go to Craig's List or similar. Dealers/used car lots as a last resort.
So who might have, or know of, such a car for sale?
Thanks in advance. Comments on what to get are also welcome. PM me to start the negotiations, or post here.
