Closer Look

Finally got a chance to drive and kick tires last night. Car's got 122k. Drives pretty good. What i saw:
- no a/c
- had rodent nest in engine compartment the first time I looked at it 2 weeks ago
- insulation under hood eaten up by something
- insulation by firewal partially eaten up by same rodent that ate the hood insl
- some trims inside are broken (air register, tears on 2 door panels, minor tears on seats)

Not known:
- major maintenance work done?

Kelly Blue book says trade-in is $550. Retail says up to $3k. Not comfortable paying over $1000.
