YACT: Buying a "Stolen Recovery" Car?

I'm looking at a car that appears to be a great deal, no accidents/damage on record, but the salesperson said it's a "stolen recovery" which he explained means it was stolen for some time beyond the insurance company's allotted time of recovery, and the owner was given a new car, but the stolen one was found later. What are the disadvantages/pitfalls of buying such a car?
 
it's still stolen :light:

it probably got really messed up, go check it out, and have a mechanic look at it. if all is well, then buy it. make sure the title is clear as well.
 
exactly... most likeley salvaged. you then cannot get full coverage on the vehicle. my VW bus was salvaged, but hey for $900 it was WAY worth it. :laugh:
