Hello,

You've listed your car for sale, the ad is out, and you've already spoken with a few folks.  Someone wants to come over and actually drive your car. What do you do. We recommend going on the test drive with the prospective purchaser, for two reasons: first, if something untoward happens like, say, an engine meltdown or an accident, you will have been there to see it happen, and won't simply be relying on their version of the incident. Second, with you in the car, it's much harder for them to steal it and use it in a bank heist. Third, the test drive is a great opportunity to talk about your car and point out its features.

Thanks,
