Hi everyone, I am planning on buying a 1999 Mitsubishi Lancer with less than 150,000 kms from a private seller.
It currently has no RWC but the seller said he could provide it for $500. Registration would also be supplied until Feb 2023.
I am planning on doing a pre-purchase car inspection prior to buying however I'm not sure how payment would work for the $500 RWC. I'm assuming I would have to do a deposit of $500 prior to purchasing the car but I do not want to be scammed.
If anyone had tips or any advice regarding this type of car or purchasing a first car would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
To me this is screaming red flags.
