Test drives. Have you talked with him yet? ( on the blue car )

He did volunteer to have the car ready to see on Saturday (i.e. he would bring it back from the shop).

He says it drives fine, just won't idle since he had it detailed.

Then it got hard to talk to him, a toddler was yelling into the phone and he seemed to think that was normal so our conversation ended before I could ask about driving it.

Sounds too shady for me to drive a long way. I would go an hour to see it, he's 4+ hours from me, and I'm not sure I want to deal with him.
