Hey guys,

i'm looking at buying a 1995 eagle talon tsi, and I've bought a few lemons already and this time i need to do some research on the car. Wondering if anyone has a carfax or carproof account which could check this VIN:4E3AL54F6SE023286 for me. I have tried calgaryfinder.com but i believe the VIN checker is down.
if anyone could help me out it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Unless that car has had a lot of work done to it already, youre setting yourself up for another lemon.

If you're looking for a car proof, why dont you do it yourself? It's $60 and you can see the history on your $xxxxx.xx purchase. Think of it as an inclvestment istead of a chore and passing the cost on to someone else... I don't mean to sound harsh but protect yourself and your money!

yeah i will, i just saw another thread where other other members that have an account with carfax (unlimited VIN checks) helped another user out.

Carfax is American, and thus useless in Canada. It would only show anything from the US. Carproof is what you need.
