The price sounds good, but you don't want to be holding on to the steering wheel when the car is traveling in a different direction than what you are steering.

A couple of years ago my car was totaled by a deer. My insurer told me to give it, with the title, to a salvage yard. A year later some latino dude from Texas call me and said he had the car and needed my title. I told him I had given the title to the salvage company. The car was too messed up for them to fix it for me, but they sold it to someone else to drive??? Someone is always trying to make a fast buck.
This seems to happen the world over.Too many dangerous repairs have been carried out here,and for other reasons,like a stolen/recovery situation when a car is totalled in NZ,the vehicle is deregistered,and costs a considerable amount of money and inspection/paperwork to put it back on the road,so it doesnt happen very often now.
