Here is a true story a friend of mine just shared with me...

His brother in law recently purchased a "great condition" 1999 Cadillac off an old guy. Got a good deal for 5K. A day after having the car he noticed an oil puddle in his driveway. He took it to his garage for a diagnosis.

He was told there is 3 leaks, the major one being the main seals. The engine must be pulled at an estimate of 3-5K to fix the leaks. His brother in law said to the mechanic, I wonder if this guy knew there was a problem? The Mechanic responded, he sure did that car was just in here we are the ones that gave him an estimate to fix it.

He is now in the process of trying to dump the car.

Moral of the story... Get a used car checked out before you buy one.
