First thing I would want to know is: 1. Any major accidents?? 2. How many previous owners???..if they don't know then you should find out...you may be buying a lemon that has been passed around. 3. Where did they buy the car??? Auction/private sale/trade in?? 4. Is the car safety checked completely??? And if so were any repairs made???
Thats a start...the rest is visual check for leaks, engine oil and transmission oil leaks/smell/color, test drive and if front wheel any clicking around corners etc. It is ALWAYS "Buyer Beware"!! Used cars are like finding the right wife...the good ones NEVER get traded in. Good luck!!

If u're buying a brand new car direct from the dealer. All u need to ask is : THE SERVICE PACKAGE.
If u're buying a pre-owned car. D first thing u got to do is. TEST DRIVE D CAR FIRST!
Then if u like it, its advisable to request the car to be sent for CHECKS. If u feel thats not necessary, try your best to negotiate for a muchhhh lower price OR freebies OR longer coverage of service package.
Hope that helps. Cheers,

it all depends on if your getting a new car or a used one if its a new one you should ask about the gas mil if its a used one ask for a car fax and if they say no then more then likely there some thing wrong with it.a car fax will tell you if its ben worked on in the past or you can do a car fax your self all you need is the vin # and that is it well the make and year to.

you somewhat desire to flow including your friends or a get kinfolk pal thats negotiated that technique - watch, hear and take notes. Theres a one thousand tricks interior the e book and a counter for each guy or woman. different than that, the ideal suggestion is to no longer fall in love with a vehicle - for the reason which you will possibly desire to have the flexibility to stroll off the lot at any element in case you do unlike what you're listening to.

-Has this car been in an accident?
-Show me the mechanical history and maintenance record of this vehicle.
-What is your warranty - how long is it and what does it cover?
-If I have a problem after I purchase the car, who do I contact? (have them take you to the service department to see it and meet the staff - this is an important contact because after the sale the sales department wants nothing to do with you)
Good luck.
