Buying a car off of a private seller.

So I plan on buying a car from a private seller on Saturday. The only problem is I don't have a way to trailer the car home and it is a 2 hour drive. The DMV closes at noon saturday so it may not be possible to get all of this done that day. How do people get around this jew shit?

Anyone ever own an older Cadillac Deville like pic related? I've heard horror stories about the older caddy eldarado, what about the deville? I've been looking into them, i love the look and feel.

I owned a pre-northstar deville (1990). Ask me anything
>>
My parents owned one and a catera when they were new

The devilles have the same engines as the el dorados, which suffer from overheating problems caused by blown headgasket because the headbolts corrode. Besides that, you're golden.

The interior quality isnt upto european standards, nor are the electronics. but they're very comfortable cars.

Would drive the fuck out of one with the nothstar performance fix done to it.

So low mileage used units of the current generation 328i have fallen into the $17,000 range in my area.

Really considering upgrading from my old C-Class to one, but just how astronomically unreliable are new BMWs?

Never had one, but everyone on /o/ says they are very astronomically unreliable. That said, I'd buy one if I had the cash

Hey /o/, I need some help
I need the CHEAPEST BUILD CAR possible as im only 19 now and need a car to build up for weekend fun outside my college. This is gonna be some haggard garage type shit where I will be buying a car for like $1000 or something. I just need help deciding what to get. Any help will be appreciated.

Rules: No buying shells or broken cars I need to fix, cause the labor costs will be more than the car is worth.

S60R near my work

I'm having problems with my 2012 Mazda 3, automatic transmission is shuddering or slipping

When I take off from lights it gets to where it should change but it just hangs there for a second or two before shifting. At low speed it shudders.

My dad thinks its because every morning I reverse out, I don't let it stop I just put it into drive and take off while still rolling a little bit backwards.

If this is true (unlikely) how would I fix it?

I do that too. Longest car I've probably been doing on would be about 5 years. So far so good tho.

So i have an old engine and it burns oil sometimes.
When taking hard corners the pressure light comes on.
Is it okay to top off on oil until i get a chance to change it?

LOL your engine is OUT of oil if the pressure light comes on.

Basically its fucked

>LOL your engine is OUT of oil if the pressure light comes on.
No it's not, the dipstick indicated it was right above the "add" line.
>>
>>14836188
oil pressure and oil level not the same thing. I had plenty of oil in my highschool car engine when i hooned it around a corner after replacing timing guides. Oil pressure light on and wrecked main and rod bearings. Clogged pickup from me being a fucking caveman with her.

most motorcycles on the other hand have an oil level light, but no oil pressure light or gauge.

Looking for a nice and sporty car for under 5k. In the past I've owned: Saturn Sky, Miata nB, Scion xB, Eclipse GS, Honda Rebel

Any recommendations?

i've been looking at Porsche Boxster's but I hear the maintenance is a nightmare..

Sounds like a nightmare waiting to happen. What do you want other than "sportiness"? Something easily DDable? Track machine? Weekend cruiser? Be more specific.
>>
>>14835538
Originally I wanted a drift car, but RWD cars are shit overpriced in California (I actually made a thread about it 2 days ago)... Doesn't have to be a DD. I want a weekend/track car basically or a drift car if I can find an affordable RWD car. I have about 11k saved but I don't want to spend it all...

These questions are always impossibly broad, even with the state.

Do you commute? How far?
Garage parking? Street? Private lot?
How much coverage do you want?
Deductible?
etc forever
>>
>>14835092
Why don't you call an insurance agent, or go to an insurance website? The odds are it's going to be really expensive because you're extremely dumb.
