Buying a Used Van - Quickly?

look up on internet : ) or go to local car person

Don't be cheap it will hunt you in the longrun. Rent a nice van and send it back. WHy buy one if you won't use it.Naturally if u buy a cheap vechile for less than 1grand u gotta put alot of work in. If you you put a lot of work in it and don't need it it would be pointless. then you would be having to resale so when u resale it u lose money anyway and it could keep braking down and you will spend more then u spent by just renting one. Please rent the can save money instead of investing money and losing money to an old Sanford and Son piece of junk

You can go to kbb.com (Kelly blue book) and look up the price it would sell for. The economy is not good the cars are not selling very well at this time. You can also go to carfax and get a report of the vehicle to see if it was ever in an accident. There are other websites where you can go to look up a vehicle to see if it were in an accident. Go to autos.com and see if there are any selling in the area where you are going. You can look on Ebay also. Good luck on your move.

i once had a one night stand in a van with a Emily Rugburn aare you her???

U-HAUL

too long to read but thanks for the points

I'd say use Yahoo Autos but not sure if that works in Australia. I googled a similar used car search tool in australia, you can put your post code and try to find stuff near where you are. http://www.autoweb.com.au/cms/usedcars/make_Toyota/kw_hiace/results_TRUE/sortBy_Price/sortOrder_/index.html By the way, I have a similar story of experience to tell... I had to move and figured it would be cheaper to buy a pick-up truck than to rent a u-haul. I found one for $450, and it was a classic 1959 Ford F-100 with a 292 V8. I went to register it and there was back registration due, $200 to get it registered. I noticed a wheel wobbling a bit and some lug nuts were loose and apparently stripped. In the shop about another $200-300 to replace some hubs and bearings that were in unsafe to drive shape. Oh and it was 1959 so I thought it didn't need to pass emissions, but I was wrong, I had to pass emissions test, and it was not firing on all cylinders and required extremely messed up carb setting, 2 barrel carb and they basically shut off fuel to the right engine bank to make it pass emission running on only 4 cylinders... but it was not drivable in this condition, so I had to un-do the fix I paid the mechanic $200 to make before I could drive it home. So that cheap truck that saved me money, i spent more for the mechanic than I spent for the truck itself. I have repeated similar experience several times buying cheap cars for kids and then when an old engine or transmission goes out it still costs thousandish to do something about, and a cheap thing no longer seems cheap. Just rent the $700 van and you have less risk of unknown outcome.

Why not rent the van? $700 isn't that much, you'll have a new-ish one rather than an antique beater, and the guarantee that the rental company will give you roadside assistance.

You can get the car checked on carfacts.com I think it is. You can list in on craigslist.com when you want to resell it. Cars get sold very quickly on there! I bought and sold mine on that site and it was quick and easy!
