Default New to volvo

Hi, my family is considering purchasing a volvo from a private party. Thought we should get a carfax first. What does 20 records mean?

Free, what does that mean? You can get a car history report from www.CarFax.com or www.AutoCheck.com. When posting here, most folks do not repond to vauge post. List the car model, year, milage, etc., if you want feedback.

I think the OP wants a free Carfax report.
(not a free car, though we can all dream)

Actually, if a dealer participates in CARFAX the report is free.

They said they were looking at a private party. I also notice that eBay is providing most of them.

However, the car history report means little to a 10 year old car. But then again, the thread started never gave us any of that information.
