Run Run Run dont throw away your money on a cheaply repaired car. They dont replace the parts that were damaged in the wreck only tweak things to make them fit. I've owned the car I regrettably purchased for 4 months now. Its been in the shop 1 month out of the 4 because of the poor rebuild. It all started on the drive home I lived out of state and had slick roads on the way back. The car handled terribly and its an awd. Rear wheel drive cars were holding the road better than me. I took it into a shop here in town and they found $2500 in repairs to make it drive straight. After dealing with prestman auto's salesman Alec and Service Manager Bob for 3 weeks the car got shipped back to prestman for repair. Well guess what they didnt repair things only bent and tweaked things again, popping in ball joints that were out, bending mounting brackets ect.. Well after prestman had the car for 2 1/2 weeks I got it back with my front bumper and fender damaged. Dent in wheel well causing the clear coat to spider web and peel, a crack in the bumper and scratched up fender. Bob the Service manager refused to own up to the bumper and blamed the shipping company. So now my bumper is jacked and Bob tells me to get lost. Driving the car after getting it back I now hear a strut noise going crazy and the clutch slipping. So back into the shop and got a repair bill for $3000 this time. I called Bob he refuses to help me again, Alec the sales man cant do anything either let alone return your call.

So to recap a car will 9,000 miles I've paid $3000 in repairs for a car I've owned for 4 months, prestman said they fixed the damage from the $2500 quote, but they just bent things back. They also ruined my bumper and refuse to help me fix it. Oh and I bought their best warranty.....it hasn't covered anything and seems like a waste of money. $5500 in repairs the first 4 months and a ruined bumper and fender THANKS ALOT PRESTMAN!

I will never buy a car from prestman again let my mistake save you time and $$$ in the long run.

Tips if you're looking at a car from them:
Get the vin number and do a google image search. You will see the car from the auction site prestman buys them from. See where it was damaged.
Now that you know where the car was impacted check all body lines and bring a tape measure.
Measure the bumper from side to side ground to bumper. This will show you if things are tweaked. My car is 5in on one side and 6in on the other....
Also measure the tire gaps inside the wheel well from side to side, again looking for tweaking.
Its well worth getting the car into a shop on a wrack to be looked over dont rush and give them a deposit down get the car looked at first. Cars that have been wrecked if not repaired correctly will have alignment issues get the alignment checked. While the car sat in the wrecking yard the doors or windows might have been left open look for dust build up in door hinges. Dont trust anything prestman says they lie lie lie and will not help you after the sale.
