Some time ago I needed a car and I was broke broke broke. Divorce and a layoff at the same time. Had about 2000 plus a grand or two I could get from my boss.
I found a place calling themselves a "Charity Auction Clearance" http://www.blokauto.com/ advertised as selling donated cars.
I got the unlimited car fax and going through their inventory found car after car that ended up there with (about) 80,000 miles a few weeks after going through the San Francisco Auto Auction with 200,000+ miles. Some showed 300,000! A huge part of their inventory. As a good but poor person in need of a good car I was completely offended at someone trying to take advantage of the poor. I completely documented 3 cases, sent it to the DMV inspector and now you can see 10% of their cars say 1 mile True Mileage Unk
I ended up with a great no options car at a great deal (not there). Now my son needs a car and I have a bit of money. I decided to buy something a bit nicer and offer my son what I buy or my old car. I got the car fax again.
I found 3 Salvage cars advertised with "clean titles" and last night see this http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/cto/4968742325.html 2003 Volvo S40T Full Power Great Economy - $3250 (corona) 100k miles
Car faxed the plate. See it in TX being smogged with 118,0000 in 2008.
149,123 in 2009. 183,000 in 2011
Right up to > 01/25/2012 214,642 05/08/2013 Service Facility Vehicle abandoned
Vehicle towed
Comes back 7/2013 in Az with 92,000 in 2013
I got a lot of great help here and still do
