vehicle bought through an auction site or from a lease trade-in. If bought through an auction, this check should be done prior to purchase, witnessed by both seller and buyer!
If Barry had found big trouble, what would your recourse have been?
I suspect a lot of lease turn-in cars have had minimal maintenance, and will be money pits for their new owners. "It's not really my car".... "I'm only going to drive it for 24 months"...."If anything goes wrong the warranty will cover it"...."I'll be damned to spend any of my money on a car I'm just going to turn in".
I have seen posts similar to that on this BB. "Brakes are shot, gotta turn it in next month, what's the cheapest brake pads I can get?"
Glad it appears to have worked out for you. It is a very good idea to have a car with no service history examined to determine potential problems.
