A client was interested in this Toyota Corolla and he invited my team at Autos and Cartalk (Limited) to inspect it for him. On getting to the car, it has about 300,000 miles on its mileage and this has been done to its battery compartment. Will you still buy it despite all that? 8 Likes 2 Shares

Lol. They did a poor job. Crossing iron between both positive and negative terminal. A little accident impacts can set that car in flames 🔥. 321 Likes 13 Shares |

What has using native sense to secure a battery got to do with hampering the selling and buying of the car? Did the seller say the contraption is a permanent fixture that cannot be removed by the new owner? 133 Likes 4 Shares |

Bankowner: Did you also read the about 300,000 miles said to be on it? Opinion was asked, but you are here asking questions up and down like something else is involved. 2 Likes |

Questions guide you to answers, first get schooled on that. Next, tell me what I don't know about a car's high mileage even though it is properly maintained. As if you don't hear about 50 year old aeroplanes still flying in the skies as passenger airlines. You as a car person should know that high mileage on a car means durability. A car is not about the body but the engine. It is the engine that gives the mileage. A car without the body can still move but a car without the engine goes nowhere. Except it is towed of course. The pix attached says it all, a car with 306k mileage still up for sale at over $3000. onlinediva: 23 Likes

itsme01:Actually that is not for battery theft. The battery area is loose, so they needed something to make the area tight, hence all that contraption. If you remove it, those placeholders on the terminals will become woobly |

chukzyfcbb:why would they do that? When they could just change the terminal clips/connector? 8 Likes |
