I need to sell the mother'n laws car. Pam's mom Robbie is now in assisted living and can no longer drive, so this car needs to go to help with ongoing support/care costs. This car was purchased about 3 years ago from Chip up at Atlantic and was rarely driven over the last 3 years. Right now the car has ~136k miles on it. It isn't grand, sporty or flashy, but it's a decent car with plenty of miles left on it. I have very little service history on the car. The oil was just changed, but no history on belts, hoses, tranny or other service items. I know it can use some valve cover gaskets as they are leaking.
I generally try to price a car right for sale for this forum, but in this case, I need as much out of this car as I can. I'm asking for $3000 for this car. That may be a reach, but that money will cover 10 months of incidentals at the assisting living place.
If you know anyone that's looking for a decent used car, this should fit the bill....

> adjustable front pedals. Nice for shorter drivers where you can bring the brake/gas closer to the driver
> paint and overall condition it probably a little better than normal for a 15 year old car. PO seemed to take good care of the car. Some minor door dings and stone chips.







I'm really hoping someone will buy from this ad so I don't have to deal with all of the CL crazies....
