City Auto Sales in
Park City (IL)

Ok, bought a salvage vehicle with rebuilt title (no damage to vehicle just a dui seizure) off ebay without ever physically viewing car in person. Dealt with Jeremy who gets 5 stars for communication. I also learned from him once you make purchase on ebay to deal directly deal with him as the ebay process is bureaucratic and takes weeks to process. I personally experienced this and Jeremy helped me bypass this. Car was delivered 12 hours a way in a couple days after sale. The cars title says "orininal title", "rebuilt". The only reason why they are not given five stars is because the "999 days since last service light was on" and the motor oil appeared worn, but I have seen worse. I changed the oil and the car is beautiful. First thing I did is tried to pay sales tax at ny dmv. They said no until salvage inspection. I had called the Salvage theft unit and they said , they have to let you pay tax in order to get salvage inspection. So I filled out form DTF-802 and went back to DMV and explained this. They let me pay the tax. Next I went to get a regular annual nys inspection at mechanic, many said can't do. Nonsense. Called Theft Salvage Unit they said any garage wirh inspection license can do. I found one. They just scan the vin off the door pillar. Mechanic said car was beautiful and in excellent condition. Reason why I did inspection is in case 90 day paper transport tag expired and I would not be able to drive vehicle to salvage inspection. This way if you have an annual inspection DMV will send you a one day transport tag to get to/from salvage inspection. You have to fill out dmv firm mv-83sal to apply fir salvage inspection. At the top if page 2 for my situation I checked other and wrote in "dui seizure", then checked all the boxes as "no" for any damage and any repairs. Paid the $205 fee for the inspection which also includes title cost. Maiked everythingbinTwo weeks later. In 20 days I was sent email from dmv with inspection date, time, location and had to print out the letter. I had inspection done and no issues. The Insoector says I ou will receive title in 2 weeks. However I learned I can go on line to dmv and check title status n about 1 week and download title and not wait for physical title to register vehicle at process.dmv.nt.gov. You can take that to dmv and show them document or show them on phone and they can look up in Computer. Then fill out Registration form MV-82 to register.

Good

Very disappointed. I called upfront and had appointment for showing at 1130 am Tuesday April 14 .I traveled 1 1/2 to get there just to find out that was a scam. I could not get to the guy on FACEBOOK. There were at least 7 more people running around because they were also scammed. Nobody shows up. Please stay away from the place. City Auto Sales sucks.
