Hope this clears up what I was getting at when I said that some
sellers ask
much lower prices, and the only explanation that I could come up

that there are such obvious problems with the vehicle that they know
they can't realistically ask too much.

Realistically most people really are not aware of the actual value
of their vehicles. I tend to get great deals but I have been involved
with cars all my life and a professional mechanic for more than 30
years. People give me cars that get put to use or go to parts.
Case in point: my "new 1986 190D 2.5 Euro. I paid $1200 for an
original owner car with 62,000mi that needed a paint job and some
inexpensive stuff. I have $2600 into it and it is near perfect.
You really have to know what you're doing when you buy and repair
the car or you stand to have a costly bad experience.
