Understandable description of vehicle condition?

[Catnip]

Just sounds like someone who doesn't know what the fuck they are talking about.

Explain.

Explain.

Is that your description of something? Sounds like someone may or may not know what's going on with it and is just trying to get rid of it.....whatever it is.

Yea. I really don't know the issue with the motor, but I made an effort to describe the noise and let a potential buyer know it would need to be trailered. It's at your discretion whether it can be fixed or not. I don't know if it's a bottom end issue, balance shaft issue, etc, because I'm not willing to take it apart. The car is priced as a shell, btw. This guy texted me about 6 weeks ago asking what the deal was, I replied the same then and now, and he went off on a rant about I'm a liar and I'm trying to bullshit him.

If he asked my opinion of the motor, I'd tell him to line up a replacement to be safe... but he just kept asking if it would crank.


I'm just trying to understand why I would be seen as a liar if I have the same answer and disclose the fact it has a motor issue that renders it undrivable.

Sounds like someone that doesn't want to deal with a car and wants it gone. Doesn't sound like you are lying about it. What car are you selling? VR4?
