M: Hi, Helen, I’ve been looking for you!
W: Really? Such a coincidence. I am also looking for you.
M: You don’t know how difficult it is to find a car I want.
W: Have you been to the second-hand market?
M: Yes, but... [12] Didn’t you tell me that when cars get older they get cheaper?
W: Sure! What happened?
M: I called in response to an ad yesterday for a very old car. It was priced somewhere over $10,000! Do you think I can get anything for $3,500?
W: Sure. I just heard about something I’ve wanted to talk to you about.
M: Oh, that’s why you are looking for me, isn’t it?
W: Yeah. [13] My uncle’s mother-in-law is 86 now, and recently her eyesight became very bad. That means she can’t drive anymore, but she’s got a 1978 Buick Century that would be perfect for you.
M: Is it still good? How much do you think she wants?
W: It’s really very good—only 43,000 miles on it. [14] There’s no rust on it, and the interior is like new. But there is certainly something wrong with it: it needs a tune-up, a new set of tires and if you buy it you’d better put all new hoses and ignition wires on it. They crack when they get old.
M: Anything else?
W: Maybe in about 10,000 miles the brakes would need attention.
M: [14] That sounds like quite a bit of expense already!
W: But look, [15] everything it needs will probably cost $500 or less. You could buy it for $2,150, I’m sure. So for a lot less than the $3,500 or so, you’d have a really good car that would last for years.
M: It sounds better when you put it that way. When can I see it?
W: How about right now?
M: All right. Let’s go.
