Default Re: Buying ex-police from the auctions with factory warranty, Nothing to worry about?

Wouldn't touch one with a bar of soap.

(positives)
- Mechanically Maintained - If something goes wrong, they are fixed straight away.

(negatives)

- I would guarantee that they have some under carriage damage or repaired damage as a decent percentage get damaged as a result of pursuits (getting bottomed out over speed humps, clipping gutters etc) or come to grief and get repaired.

- The amount of hours they spend running day in and day out (pretty much all day every day between 7am-11pm)

- Amount of times spent Idling from a stand still to flooring it when catching up to a speeding motorist or on way to a job.

- Interior Wear and Tear. Have a good look at the seats, where the firearms rub against the side bolsters, not to mention the scratched door panels.


Go Private, it wont be worth the hassle in the long run saving a few $$$.
