Hi,

I am looking for an used car (Toyota Corolla) and went to a used car dealer to see some cars.

Test drove a 2001 Toyota Corolla CE (automatic) with following details:
- Milage of 136,000 KM
- Carfax report provided by the dealer did NOT have the number of previous owners and the dealer could not explain why.
- Windscreen not original Toyota (replaced with some other make)
- Radio not working and radio antenae stuck
- Fog light place holder missing (from front bumper)
- Price:
6500 (base price) +
400 (administration fees) +
350 (Emission tests, etc.) +
---------------------
7250 (Sub-total) +
950 (13% taxes on above sub-total)
---------------------
8200 (Final cost to buy)
---------------------

I am not sure what to make of this price for this used car (am new driver) and hence request your comments/ opinion.

Thanks for time.

Trinity
