    Got 5k to lend me?

    If I had this money I would buy the car tomorrow

    Only about 2 hours or so from my place. My friends mother is actually a minister in that town


    I've only ever seen one Marauder around here and this wasn't it.

      the location doesn't help at all. it's probably been pretty neglected. covered in salt, and check out the front alloy with brake dust all over it, and the brakes themselves....folks that live around there aren't exactly known for taking care of nice things.

                Thing makes me sad. I hate seeing a Marauder used as a DD to begin with, but it being in such disrepair is not cool. Unfortunatley I think a lot of dealers push them as basically a "Grand Marquis" therefor people get them that dont really know what they got.

                  We usually play a game when we drive through the town that this car is located in. Count all of the open doors on the houses. Most folks there drive brand new SUVs and have 2-3 satellite dishes on their houses (with shingles falling off of the sides) and a couple of ATVs.


                  The only thing missing is a casino if you know what I mean.

                    If I had a Marauder, I'd be cruising all the time in it...except for winter.

                          I'm just shocked how an original owner(supposedly) of a $45,000+ car, can neglect a car this bad.

                          At $4-5000 I think I'll pass on it. The interior trim looks very worn, seems like it was never cleaned. Ever. Nevermind all the likely suspension problems it has.

                              I'm not shocked even slightly. If you did want someone to check it out, I could go and report my findings. Probably about 40 bucks (if that) in fuel there and back.


                              I can almost guarantee it's never been undercoated, FWIW. I can take as many pics as you need to document the condition.


                              The only other Marauder I've seen (hell, maybe it's the same one?) was owned by a customer at a gas station I used to work at. I was obviously shocked to see the car and asked if it was a Marauder, and the old cat said he'd leave it there with me for 10k. This was probably 4-5 years ago.
