Minimum bid of $11800 on the coupe, $14000 on the vert. Known issues:

Check Oil light is on (change soon)
Drivers power seat control is broken
Needs repair and/or replacement
Scratches
Paint Chips
Dents
Low on fuel

Pretty minor stuff if the price is right, but who knows how they were driven or maintained, I'm guessing gov't cars are like rentals? lol

Over wholesale and under retail. Some dork will over pay for these and still pay the government taxes on the high price they paid. Win, win for the government. Plus still have to pay for the repairs to get it roadworthy.

Some of the items that the government puts out there for bids are from confiscations. Not sure about these as soon as I saw the minimum bid I wasn't wasting my time.

I was just being a smart ***. Looks like Environment Canada did not look after them to well.

Why would they, their just a bunch of pencil pushers, all they want is numbers. They get to drive nice vehicles and could care less because they don't own them. Our tax dollars at work.

Well stated. Environment Canada and the government should have their collective nuts slapped. Wonder if the auditor general knows about this one?
