Fleet? My guess is it was a business car, or a rental. I don't think I'd buy one of these, as people generally don't treat cars that aren't theres as nicely as they would their own.

Business, rental, Police, etc., from an organization that owns a lot of cars.

If you can get it cheap, go for it. They sell for a LOT less then a private vehicle sells for.

Not only that, but if you get a corporate car (Like, business cars that big corporations lend out) or a police vehicle, chances are the mechanics were immaculately maintained

It is the vehicular equivalent of a 25˘ whore. Stay away...

Anything that has been driven that hard, by that many people, you do NOT want to stick your key in.

Stay away...
