    Do you have a car fax to prove the mileage is real?

    I don't but I guess I could. I have service records with dates, vin and millage over the life of the car.

    For the past 10ish years its been the extra car and was my mother-in-law's for about 5 years and she didn't drive it much.

    I am new to this site/forum but have been here before for info maintaining this car.

    I have also posted on facebook marketplace but I'm always worries about scammers. I thought priuschat.com would be good because you know the value of this Prius model best and would appreciate one with low mileage.

    BTW thanks for the CarFax suggestion... I purchased it ($44) and have a better overview of the maintenance and other minor work done.

    Can you post the carfax report for the car? How long have you owned the car?

    Here's the CarFax. A little surprised to see the reported CarFax Value amount.

    We are the original owners but transferred it to my mother-in-law for a few years until she passed when we took the car back.

    Personally, I would ask for $10K but take $8K... I recently saw two 2008 Corolla's here for sale, $8,000 and $11,000 and there's not nearly as good as a Prius!!!

    Welllll, I sold the car for my asking price ($4.2k) so I can’t be mad. I guess the guy got a good deal.

    Well hopefully someone from PriusChat bought it. It seemed like a solid deal. I believe $4200 is the correct price, there is still an expensive brake actuator for the new buyer to replace soon.
