My response:

As long as (this) is a private sale, and you give no warranty, then you'll be okay. It's up to (the buyer) to have the car diagnosed by a (mechanic) before purchase - - so if a buyer should ask to do so, you should let him. If the buyer (doesn't) have the car inspected by a mechanic first, then the buyer (takes) the car "as is." Always put those words in your Bill of Sale. As a (matter of fact), there are many examples of such Bills of Sale on the Internet. Find (one) that meets your specific (needs).
