Hey everyone. I'm looking at a repossessed RAV4 on the Oaks Elite Motors website and the price seems really good. I've never bought from an online auction before and I'm a bit nervous about the whole thing. Are they a legitimate company? Worried about getting a clean title and the car's actual condition. Any experiences would be great.

You're good to go. I've used Oaks Elite Motors a couple of times. Got a 2020 Camaro last year. Process was straightforward and the car was exactly what the report on oakselitemotors.com said it would be. They're one of the better ones out there.

I can second that. Bought an F-150 through them about eight months ago. My biggest worry was the title paperwork, but I was relieved when the clean title arrived right with the truck during delivery. They handled all the bank lien stuff. No issues at all.

Solid company. Key is to read the vehicle history report they provide on the listing. They're pretty transparent. For repo auctions, they are a professional outfit.

We got a Honda CR-V from Oaks Elite Motors for a family car. It was our first time too and I was super nervous lol. But it went great! The car is perfect and we saved a good amount compared to a regular dealer. You'll be fine!

They don't just do cars. I won a bid on a Sea Ray boat from them. The process was the same and just as smooth. It's a legit operation.

I'm a mechanic. A buddy of mine bought a car from them and had me check it out upon arrival. The condition report they listed was spot on, no surprises. I was impressed.

I'll be honest, I had a small hiccup. The delivery of my car was pushed back by two days. I was getting a bit worried, but their logistics team called me to explain the transporter's delay. The communication was good, so it ended up being okay. Just something to be aware of.

@Skeptical_Sam Freight delays can happen with any company these days, especially cross-country. Good that they kept you in the loop. My delivery was right on time.

Wow, thanks for all the feedback everyone! This is making me feel a lot more confident. I have one more question - is the bidding process on the website confusing?

Nah, it's pretty standard. Just register on oakselitemotors.com, get your account verified, and you can bid. My advice is to set your max bid and let the system do the work for you. Don't get caught up in a last-second bidding war.

Got a great deal on a RAM 2500. Well below Blue Book value. The money I saved was more than worth buying online.

We had a question about our RV purchase and sent a note to office@oakselitemotors.com. It took them about a day to write back. I got impatient and called the support number +1 419 517 4835 and got my answer instantly. The guy on the phone was super helpful, would recommend just calling if you're in a hurry.

The best part about my experience was the title transfer. I was really worried about that with an out-of-state RV. Oaks Elite Motors handled everything. After my payment cleared the bank, they processed it all. The clear title arrived securely with the vehicle. So much easier than I thought it would be.

My Tacoma had a couple of minor scuffs on the bumper that weren't super obvious in the pics, but it's a used truck so I kinda expected some wear and tear. For the price, I'm not complaining. It's a solid truck.

Just adding my two cents, a good friend of mine bought a Forester from them last winter and had a great experience too. She recommended them to me.

They're a legitimate auction house. Point blank. This isn't some fly-by-night operation. It's an auction, so do your homework on the vehicle you want. But as a company, they are solid.

Update: I did it! I won the bid for the RAV4! The whole process on the website was way easier than I expected. Thanks for all your advice, everyone. The team at Oaks Elite Motors has been very professional so far.

A little late to this thread, but congrats on the new ride! I nabbed a Wrangler from them last year. The website oakselitemotors.com was easy to navigate. Good choice.
