Default Stalking my Ex....Defender!

I sold my P400 to Carmax Torrance. For the first time in two weeks they moved the car to Oxnard.

when it sells, I will deactivate incontrol. So far it’s not listed for sale.

just curious.

Just as likely, it will never go up for retail sale. Very possible that it is sold to an employee.

With all the new technology, car companies/buyers need to keep up with disabling apps like this one, clearing the phones off the Bluetooth, clearing the GPS history, etc. Apple requires resetting, and disabling the find iPhone before they take a trade, cars need something similar.

Surprise there. While only 10% of their purchased vehicles go to the Retail side of things, I would have thought any Defender would go that route. They are very picky to avoid Come Backs or other "Warranty" issues. I guess something spooked them. Highly modified vehicles tend to go Wholesale. So it may have been that.

They probably couldn't disable the software as you still have "in" control of the vehicle?

The auction prices are at all time high now. So high to a point that doesn’t make sense. They can quickly flip it for the margin they need so timing is more important.
