I sold my previous car to a guy who boarded a plane from FL to NJ. I picked him up at the terminal and he drove it right back to Florida after I filled the tank for him.
But when I was on the phone with him the day before I made it crystal, please do not show up with less than the amount we agreed to because I would hate for you to have to go home empty handed.
I would make the 'pending PPI and leak down' offer for X amount put it in writing with your signature on it, a blank line for his name, with a note that says if the PPI and leak down result in needed repairs that you are free to revisit your offer price.
email it to him. He doesn't need to sign it just shows what you're prepared to pay before you make the trip. If you like how the car looks and drives, put a deposit on it and ask him to sign on the blank line so he doesn't sell it to someone with a higher offer.
