Has anyone ever knocked on your door offering to buy your eco-ride?
And by that I mean... one that's not advertised for sale.
It happened to me for the 3rd time (in 7 years) last week: Someone wanted to know if I'd sell the Firefly/Metro.
"Uhm... nope!"
Turns out he was asking for his son, whose Firefly had bitten the dust a week earlier. (The Flea is now the last Suzuki-clone of its generation still on the road in my city.)
The previous 2 times someone had knocked on the door wanting the car was during the North American gas price spike in 2008/09.
Has it ever happened to you? Or, have you ever cold-called on someone else for their un-advertised efficient car? I've stalked a couple of local Insight owners, but never bought one as a result.
