Well for $800 you expected a new Baja? You are lucky it runs for that amount...

If they sold it for so little then there will be a lot of things needing fixing.

Do you have good Snow/ Mud-Snow tires on it?
Have you put good brake pads on it and made sure the rotors are still in specs?

I would spend my time checking out the car and fixing things or having someone who knows cars check it out and fix things for you.
