Some essential advice before buying a used car according to Mike Brewer Wheeler Dealers
" If you're in a market for a used car you might want this old Ferrari 308. They aren't just folding. There are a few things that you should do if we set off to go and buy a car. The first of which is to use your phone, maybe your landline or your mobile phone, and phone with data service. Somebody like HPI or the AA, and they can give you all the information you would need to know whether the car is pretty involved in any accidents, whether the police have got an interest, but more importantly, if it's got any finance outstanding. Now, the only information you need to give him is a registration number of a car. And if you can, get the chassis number of the owner as well. That way, you can find out that the car you're buying is genuine rather than setting off to go [unk] in the first place. All it cost is the same price as a tanker fuel, and it's the best money you'll ever spend. Secondly, when you arrive to go and see the car, make sure that the car has not been previously rammed before you got there. What I mean by that is put your hand on the body, although dirty on this Ferrari, or look can be stupid because the engine on this car is down the back. So, when I do get to the car, I can put the key in ignition and see if there's any nasty fumes or black smoke coming out the Exhaust pipe. Now, the other thing to do is when you do go and see a vehicle, make sure that the paperwork tallies to the place where you're actually standing. You'd be amazed of the amount of people who buy a car from the petrol station or from a pump carpark. What you should do, is when you go and see a vehicle, make sure that the paperwork says you'll stand in the barn any town. Make sure you all stand in at the barn any town to come and see the car. That way, you know that you're buying a genuine car of a genuine owner. Now, when you do finally get there, and you've checked that it's not been previously rammed, you're standing in the right place, and you've done your days check, don't let your heart rule your head because you can't get carried away, especially with something as evocative as this lovely 308 GT4. You want to make sure that you've got yourself a price and stick to it. Don't go above it; otherwise, you could end up to shell your money out forever in a day to keep that thing on the road. If the car has got any outstanding finance, then make sure you speak to the finance company before you go to see the vehicle and find out what that settlement figure should be. That way, you can give the owner the balance of the vehicle that you've agreed to purchase it from, and send the settlement figure directly to the finance company. That way, you know it's been paid. Other than that, happy motoring."

Used Car Buying Guide & Tips
In this video I go over the basic checks, and practices that one needs to do when buying a new old car. If you stick with this guide then you should greatly reduce your chances of getting stuck with a problem stricken car. Also, this video is intended to address the needs of a cheap used car. I say in the video between 1 and 3 thousand dollars. If you are purchasing a more expensive car you may also need to check into if it has a salvage title, or has it just been painted, and other things, but given the price range this video deals with, those things are not important.

I, Jordan, assume no liability for anything you choose to do to your car, before, or after watching one of my videos, including this one. All DIY repairs, or modifications, you perform to your car are made at your own risk. Sometimes, even if you've done everything the right way, you can destroy, or damage, a piece, or part. You must understand this; part of doing a repair, and/or modification is messing up sometimes. Also, if for some reason, I do give incorrect instructions, and something breaks because you followed my instructions, I still will not reimburse, or pay, in any way, for whatever cost that may be incurred due to following my wrong instructions. Don't do anything to your car unless you yourself feel comfortable, & confident in doing so.

Well we have reached the conclusion of the Used Car Inspection series and in my opinion this is probably the most important video in the series. I feel you can learn more from a test drive than just about anything else that I've covered so far so be sure to take the vehicle you're looking to purchase for a thorough test drive to really shake it down before you commit to purchase.

Do Not Buy Another Used Car Until You Have Watched This Video!
In this video, Sam from http://www.professionalfleet.com in Lansing Michigan is telling you what to look when your purchasing a used car. This is the first part of a three video used car inspection series. This is the most important because in a thirty minute drive you can find out so much about the car. You want to see if there is anything that the seller is trying to cover up. Usually nobody is selling a car that is in perfect working order so if you purchase the vehicle you know all the expenses ahead of time.

Here is part 2 of the 4 part used car inspection video this one covers the interior inspection as you can see this car has quite a bit of 'junk' and dog hair in it but things like this can be cleaned, chances are that the car that you're looking to buy will be cleaned out but maybe not even so you should do a thorough inspection of the vehicle that you're looking to by after all it's your money.
