Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"No missing parts on the vehicle, it shows Kilometers on the instrument panel, 28,082 kilometers which is around 17,400 miles. Although the car looks and behaves like new, it is NOT NEW. If you take the magnifying glass you will probably discover a few surface scratches, inside it still has attached on the floor the metal bar that they had the radio/computer mounted, and on the right side of the windshield vertical plastic cover inside, it has 2 small holes hardly seen (less than 1/8") that they probably had their camera mounted. I will probably stick on top of them 2 small washer buttons by the time it sells. Although the car has a police interceptor emblem in the back left of license and the search light in front and it was a vehicle owned by a police detective, it even has the police interceptor section in the user manual (see pics and title search) someone brought to my attention that the vin # is not the police interceptor, so although it looks like PI, it probably not."

This is a perfect extremely comfortable car that shows kilometers in the odometer (Canadian model) with around 17,400 ACTUAL MILES!!!. It was acquired from a police detective with minimal usage, and was sitting parked for over 10 years at my friends garage in Maryland. The vehicle now is in Alpharetta , Ga and has new tags and is driven by me or my wife. 

If you are the type who uses "common sense" vs. "book values", the type that likes newer cars and can probably afford one but looks to save money getting one that feels new with the lowest miles possible for the year, if you like a car that is the most comfortable for the money and you don't want to take a big $$$ loss buying a new one, and if you like the fact that most drivers around you will "behave" ...and when you are on the highway driving in the most comfort going to your vacation spot most cars in front of you will move out of your way, or if you happen to drive in a high crime neighborhood all "up to trouble" guys will instantly disappear from your path, then this car is for you. You will be a very very happy owner. (I am talking from personal experience here :-). I never felt safer in a bad part of town when I drove this Vic to see some houses for sale and when I took it to Florida on a trip last month with the family it was so comfortable the time flew by very fast and we were not affected at all by the long trip, and it was funny on the highway to see great behavior from other cars obviously thinking that we were the police :-).

You will not find another car like this beauty with such low miles, I had listed it one time before and was not planning to re-list it if it didn't meet my reserve, but the time has come to give it another shot as I need to get my 2 teens 2 smaller cars ASAP and this beauty will have to go to a good home. This is one opportunity to get a $22,000 car that still looks, feels, and drives like new, for less than 1/3 the price. This car is a keeper and a smart owner who can afford it will enjoy it for the long time to come.

New tires (around 4 months less than around 800 miles on them), new battery, new fuel pump and plugs, new transmission oil and filter and new engine oil. ITS PERFECT!


I am reserving the right to cancel all bids prior to reserve been met, and sell it locally as I have it posted in another site. I also reserve the right to close the auction early and sell it to the highest bidder that met the reserve. Will not disclose the reserve, do not ask. 
Inspections are encouraged and welcomed any time in opt. north (of Atlanta), in Alpharetta GA close to exit 10 off 400.



Good luck and thank you.



The vehicle shines as a new one. ATTN:! on the 3rd pic the black dots are from my camera, the car is spotless. Sorry about that. Also, the speedometer shows top speed of 200 km/hr as you can see from the pics. Feel free to contact me with any questions.

I just clicked on the ebay link for the vehicles full history report, I paste it here.
Again, keep in mind, the miles shown below are actually kilometers!!! I measured it on the highway, the odometer shows kilometers for sure so this car has less than around 17500 actual miles.

I had been asked before if the vehicle has any rust. The sheet metal doors, underneath etc has absolutely not any rust spots anywhere. The paint over and under is still shines. It does have some surface rust over some bolts etc, and some surface rust on the main frame, but nothing you don't see on even new vehicles after they are driven for 5 months.  This car is very well intact and the exhaust is stainless!!. Also, the wheel hubs are METAL!! chromed and shinny!!  :-).

2016 Green Truck of the Year, Commercial Green Car of the Year finalists

Sat, Oct 24 2015

Not only are commercial-grade haulers getting more green love lately, they're getting more different kinds of green love. The 2016 Green Truck of the Year, the second time the award has been handed out, is being decided by judges from Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show. This year the award is joined by the new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year, which crowns one of the little vans increasingly used by small business as cargo and delivery vehicles. The Green Truck of the Year finalists are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax (pictured), Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. The first three of those were on last year's list, but since they are completely new or upgraded for 2016 - Ford with its all-aluminum body, the General Motors twins with the new diesel Duramax engine - they qualify for entry again. The Ram 1500 EcoDiesel won last year. The Commercial Green Car finalists are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. You can read more details in the presser below, and the awards will be announced in San Antonio sometime during the show from November 19-22. San Antonio Auto & Truck Show Announces 2016 Green Truck of the Year and Commercial Green Car of the Year Finalists SAN ANTONIO, Oct. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal and the San Antonio Auto & Truck Show have announced finalists for the 2016 Green Truck of the Year™ and 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year™ awards. The Green Truck of the Year™ nominees are the Chevrolet Colorado Duramax, Ford F-150, GMC Canyon Duramax, Nissan Titan XD, and Toyota Tacoma. Vying for the all-new 2016 Commercial Green Car of the Year™ award are the Chevrolet City Express, Ford Transit Connect, Mercedes-Benz Metris, Nissan NV200, and Ram ProMaster City. "Over the past few decades, new car models have benefitted from design and technology improvements that have brought higher fuel efficiency and greater levels of environmental compatibility," said Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com Editor and Publisher Ron Cogan. "With models like these ten deserving finalists, we're witnessing the pickup and light commercial vehicle field enjoying the same attention." The new Commercial Green Car of the Year™ award is part of an expanded awards program presented at this year's 2015 San Antonio Auto & Truck Show.

Ford recalls 382k vehicles across six campaigns

Wed, Sep 30 2015

Ford needs to repair a total of 381,633 vehicles in North America across six newly announced campaigns, including five safety recalls and one compliance recall. By far the largest of these campaigns covers the 342,271 examples of the 1998-2003 Windstar to double check an earlier recall repair. Among these, 283,413 are in the US and 58,858 are in Canada. The combination of corrosion and stress can cause cracks in the rear axle and eventually lead to the part to snap completely. The company reports a small number of accidents might be connected to this, but there are no injuries. The minivans were recalled for this issue back in 2010, and it was investigated by NHTSA. According to Ford's latest announcement, the reinforcement brackets on some of these models might not have been installed correctly. This time, dealers will perform an inspection. Minivans with incorrectly installed brackets will get a new rear axle. The rest of the owners will be offered a deal to replace the part at a reduced cost. The next largest campaign covers 36,857 examples of the 2015 F-150 to fix a problem with the adaptive cruise control. Specifically, there are 33,481 affected trucks in the US, and 3,376 in Canada. According to Ford, "when passing a large, highly reflective truck" the radar in the system can misidentify a semi as being in the same lane as the pickup. The collision warning system would then activate, slowing the F-150. There's one report of an accident with this happening but no injuries. The fix is simply an update to the adaptive cruise control module software. Ford also has a recall for 1,477 examples of its 2016 F-53 and F-59 stripped chassis models, and they're all located in the US. A manufacturing issue might allow the trucks to shift into reverse without the driver first applying the brakes. There are no reports of any accidents from this, though. To repair the problem, the models get a new transmission shift control bracket and an adjustment to the shift cable. The Blue Oval's safety compliance recall covers 708 examples of the 2016 Fusion and Lincoln MKZ, including 658 of them in the US, 28 in Canada, and 22 in Mexico. On these models, a manufacturing problem with the fuel tank could allow it to crack in a crash, which isn't allowed under federal rules. There are no reports of accidents, injuries or fires. The fix will be a new fuel tank for all of them. The company is also repairing 251 units of the 2015 Taurus and Lincoln MKS, plus the 2016 Explorer.

Ford bumped by Amazon in best-perceived brand list

Mon, 20 Jan 2014

Back in July, a mid-year study from YouGov found Ford to have higher brand perception than any other company in the US. While Ford failed to top the year-end study, it still has plenty to brag about. The final BrandIndex report shows that online retail giant Amazon edged out Ford for the top ranking, while Subway, the History Channel and Lowe's rounded out the top five spots.
For Ford, it's still an improvement from sixth place in the 2012 study, and, more importantly, it dominated other automakers in terms of brand perception with a clear advantage over Toyota, Honda, Chevy and Volkswagen. To determine how well - or not so well - a brand is perceived, YouGov uses a Buzz score that asks respondents whether they've "heard anything about the brand in the last two weeks, through advertising, news or word of mouth" and whether it was positive or negative. While it isn't clear how many respondents were included, YouGov does point out that Ford had a strong presence in social media, advertising and newsworthy toward the end of the year.
For more details about the study and the top companies, check out the press release posted below.
