AA aprised . you would better ask a 5 year old to aprise it for you then the AA as a 5 year old kid would do a better job then the AA

ya better off getting a reputable mechanic to look it over. AA are more interested in looking at the cosmetic side rather than the mechanical

Springchicken-First of all count on a few days for shipping.That is reasonable allowing they may not travel to palmy daily. Second. PLEASE do not for a second concider an AA appraisal to in any way be a Pre purchase inspection because it is NOT.Its no more than is required to be done for compliance and is pure advertising. You will get a better inspection getting a WOF check done and asking them to tell you how it feels. -Im NOT suggesting that either but its just to give an idea. I STRONGLYrecommend asking if its ok to have an AA FULL pre purchase inspection done. The cost to YOU will be $145 if an AA member. Not that the AA is my suggestion but the dealers reaction will tell you everything. The preference is to have an inspection done by a decent mechanic as a second option Car Inspection Services or Incar services do a reasonable job. -All should cost about the AA price. I usually recommend getting the car inspected by a freind first then if it seems good get it propperly mechanically inspected.

LMFAO, quote of the year.
There's only maybe 4 people in HB i'd trust to "check" something out for me, 3 of those are family and the other is someone who used to be a regular poster here.
