Nothing wrong with the sale at all, as others have suggested this happens all the time. Used Car yards are mostly stocked with once pranged commutes. Every 2nd car i worked on as mechanic had signs of accident damage that current owner new nothing about.
The fact they stated minor damage, easily repaired - that thing has had a decent knock in the rear! Theres a few grand or more of repairs there. |

This guy either has no idea or is deliberately misleading potential buyers, the car is a repairable writeoff and will be listed as such on WOVR Australia wide. It dosen't matter from which state/auction he bought it from.
That being said if you bought it at a reasonable price and spent a few $$$ on it it might be a cheap car. But you need to do your homework and price parts and painting etc. etc.
