Just had the craziest thing happen. Selling a car we've had for 12 years, ran great, no issues. The dealer looked it over, all good, and does the quick test drive to make sure no lights come on, etc. Two blocks from the dealership the engine blows. My shop confirmed and I had to salvage it. Literally 30 seconds from selling and the engine blows after 12 years!!!

My initial thought was dealer trickery, but there really isn't a way to blow an engine on a five minutes test drive. If he had tried to be like "we'll take it off your hands for you so you don't have to worry about it" I would have been really suspicious, but he just said that he couldn't buy it if it wasn't running and felt really bad it happened while he was driving it. And then my own shop separately confirmed the blown engine. Just EXTREMELY unlcuky timing I guess.
