-- Posted by okumsup at 8:07 pm on Aug. 30, 2008 Hey.. How well do repossessed cars sell? I figure they have to be pretty cheap and I think I may get my next car that way. Anyone ever think about it? -- Posted by k1Lka at 8:14 pm on Aug. 30, 2008 interesting question, i think they're just like any other used cars, i mean the owner obviously didnt want to get rid of it so it must be fine -- Posted by espresso8097 at 8:26 pm on Aug. 30, 2008 Quote: from k1Lka at 10:14 pm on Aug. 30, 2008 interesting question, i think they're just like any other used cars, i mean the owner obviously didnt want to get rid of it so it must be fine Then again, the person could not afford the car (for repos based on financial reason) which means they could most likely not afford maintenance.   -- Posted by k1Lka at 8:28 pm on Aug. 30, 2008 i say you have the same chanse of that even when youre buying a reg used car -- Posted by tempoluvver69 at 8:44 pm on Aug. 30, 2008 they are auctioned -- Posted by ScoobyDoo82 at 11:26 pm on Aug. 30, 2008 Buying a repo'ed car you're more than likely going to have to replace the locks and ignition because a lot of cars a repo'ed without the owner even knowing, thus not being able to get the keys. -- Posted by tempoluvver69 at 7:19 am on Aug. 31, 2008 Quote: from ScoobyDoo82 at 11:26 pm on Aug. 30, 2008 Buying a repo'ed car you're more than likely going to have to replace the locks and ignition because a lot of cars a repo'ed without the owner even knowing, thus not being able to get the keys. they can open the doors without a key and can get a new key from the dealership... dumbass -- Posted by hinshawwrx at 12:15 pm on Aug. 31, 2008 Most of the time repo'ers simply roll up to the vehicle and drag it away. But their auctioned off anyways
