If the car is good it could be worth the money. There is no harm haggling, but better not to rob the guy if he has taken good care of her.

If the doors are very rusty, you might consider looking for a couple hundred bucks off to replace the doors. Similarly the paint will have faded a lot if it was down south. You could look for something off on that.

If the car is decent though, offer a non insulting price. That way everybody wins.

What to look out for
