Carfaxfauxpas: 2003 Volkswagen W8 Passat 4MotionWagon


Like us, You probably spend most of your working day looking for cars on the internet busting your hump for an unappreciative boss, so it's only natural that you'll occasionally find a car worth pursuing.  You've read a million ebay, craigslist, Traderonline and Turbobricks ads which has given you a certain confidence. You now believe that you know how to spot a scam.  Besides, even if your own training lets you down, you know that you have the ultimate firewall between internet scammers and your wallet; the paid experts at CARFAX!

This is not about the car, it's about what we discovered about the car, so don't deprive us of the opportunity to tell our story...read on past the break, please.
