Up for sale 2007 Mini with salvage title. unfortunately I was away on business trip when my son asked to use my eBay account to purchase a car. with no experience he bought this car not knowing what a salvage title is. I called the previous owner and asked him about the salvage title and he said that is no problem because the car is currently registered in the state of California and passed all California tests. I paid $1100. 00 to ship it to Connecticut and paid $395. 00 in minor repairs. I took the car to CT DMV to register. DMV told me that not because its passed in CA it will pass in CT. I said no problems lets get it inspected. they asked me to provide them with pictures before and after repairs. air bag inspection. original accident report. insurance report. all receipts and repair invoice. nbsp;I called the previous owner to ask hi for all the above. he said he is the 3rd owner in the state of California and he does not have any thing and sorry I can not help you :) I asked DMV what to do and they said nothing but to try to sell it to someone that lives in CA. the previous owner has filled my wife name in the new owner section on the back of the title. I called the previous owner asking him to get me a duplicate title not filled out and he stopped communicating with me. at this point whom ever want to buy the car must read all above and call me to go over more details. please call 914 729 4625 ask for Ivan.
