Found a smokin deal on a 2014 Honda Accord with 11,600 original miles on it. Have been going back and forth with the current owner with questions, etc.
today i I asked for the VIN to get a Carfax and he disclosed that it had previously been stolen but still carries a clean title.
He sent pictures if the title which shows the mileage is actual and that it was issued AFTER the theft. He also sent a picture of an affidavit letter from Geico insurance stating that they were requesting a clean title from the BMV due to the car being recovered and in-tact.
Mileage in the affidavit is it is lower than mileage on the title so I’m assuming the title was issued after the affidavit was sent to BMV so I’m assuming there are no issues with that.
FWIW the car is in Illinois. I’m just looking to pick the collective minds of my INGO brethren.
Is this car something you would still pursue if you cane across something like this and it was a great deal? (Great deal but not TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE).
Would i I be able to finance, plate, and insure this vehicle as normal?
Thanks in advance.
