Sure actually seeing and test driving a car is over-rated and surely no one would lie about the condition of a car in order to get a better price than it might be worth.Go for it lucky.

It's a risky business, if it means you can't conveniently view a car before buying/bidding. However, in the case of rarer cars, i.e: classics, you probably won't have much choice in such a matter.
If you were to buy on eBay, for example, if you won a car, you would enter into a legally-binding contract to buy the car, unless it isn't 'as described' (for example, car is sold as 'not having any rust, then you find out that it is actually rusty around the doors and sills come collection day). However, you can't refuse to buy a car simply because you 'don't like the gearchange action', etc.

You are much better going to see the car before you say you will buy it that way you can barter with the seller and maybe get a better price.
If you think the price is a bit daft then walk away and it is always a good idea to take at least one other person with you then you will have a witness before going to the car get as much knowledge as possible about it try this website

I would not buy any vehicle that you can't see and test drive before you buy. If your searching dealerships most allow you to enter your zip code to find vehicles near or in your home town. I'm sorry but making a purchase that big does not seem right without physical inspection.

don't pay out until you have actually seen the car
i mean you need to pick it up anyway so why be so quick to pay up?
