I got a (relatiely) new car recently and planned on just short of giving my old car away to a friend. (I'm selling it to him for the money I would get sending it to a salvage yard, so just a couple hundred.)
He needs a car almost desperately, this is not a town you can get around in very well relying on public transit and walking. As a bonus this is the car he learned to drive in, because his family refused to help teach him how to drive, so I had to step up. It's not a great car by any standards, but it's a fine first car, it's old, it won't be any great loss if it's wrecked, it has basic airbags, and while it has a number of major problems that would keep any other person from buying it, the problems are non vital. They pretty much just amount to needing more fluids than most due to some slow leaks, a noisy fanbelt(when cold), complete lack of ac and radio, and having the gas mileage of an suv. The car runs and I don't see that stopping in the near future, and it's engine is actually much younger than the car itself if the repair guys who had to replace it were telling the truth.
Unfortunately his family is trying very hard to convince him to not buy the car. And it seems to be rubbing off on him. He has become very hesitant regarding the additional time and money needed to transfer the title and actually register the car with the state. And seems to want to back out now, from what I could get out of him his family seems to think I'm charging him too much. When I'm pretty sure from past experience they simply don't want him driving, only one person in the family drives, and she's terrified of backing out of the driveway and has seem to have done everything she can to spread that fear to all of her children.
It's absurd to me that they could possibly use I'm charging too much as an excuse. I'm charging him to buy the car the same amount of money as a local scrapyard would pay me to let them tow it out of the my driveway and take it apart for parts. Yet it is a functional car. The engine alone cost me $2000 2 years ago. And I'm selling the whole thing for less than $200
Either I'm really overestimating the price of a set of wheels, or it's really sad what a mother would go through to keep any of her kids from being able to be fully mobile functional adults due to her own fear of driving.
