SELLER MESSAGE
Hi, I'm comparing used electric cars. Please send the VIN, mileage, exact trim/battery/drivetrain, port photos, included charging equipment and an itemized price. Could you share battery assessments with their test method/date, battery or module replacement invoices, recall/software work, current charge limits, warnings and charging problems? I'd like an independent EV inspection and an agreed charging demonstration that follows current manufacturer instructions. Please confirm remaining warranty evidence and any account/charging-access transfer steps. If you're a dealer, please separate optional products and send an out-the-door quote for my registration ZIP without assuming a tax credit. Can we verify these before I travel?
