It takes a special kind of fool to think since there are no repairs, there will continue to be none, and to prefer a car with no maintenance done.
But, I can see irrational people thinking one car is "cursed" and one where nothing went wrong (yet) is somehow better.
The reality is the opposite. The more repairs, the less you need to do yourself.

First, we don't know the seller has maintained the car - only that he has fixed some things...who knows what else lurks, hence all buyers should get a PPI. And he just changed out the IMS prior to selling - hmmmm, why? Because he found metal and it's already in the engine so he's hoping to sell quick before it explodes?? Have to wonder.
I've had bra's on cars before. They aren't pretty - but they can also damage the paint underneath, and they also cause the paint to fade slower on the front than the rest of the car.
It takes a special kind of fool to think that because some work has been done then all the work is done and the car is perfect.
