offer him $700. but i would buy it for 800. why hasnt he started it in a year? check the oil before you buy it. just drain ALL the fluids and replace them and hopefully it will start.

Unless that is in awful condition it seems like a pretty good price.

The problem here is, alot of the stuff you'd want to check (how the trans shifts, hearing how the engine sounds, steering, the brakes, etc) you have to get it started to check. So if it wouldn't start without a major tune up, then I'd be very cautious because while it might run with a few tune up items, that doesn't mean it will run very well and it could turn into a moneypit.

If it runs ok with whats listed I'd say it's a good buy.

Buy it! If it has bad motor, part it out and make more than what u paid! Or just ship it to me
