Top tips on buying a second hand car

Buying a car can be one of the most exciting purchases you will ever make, but anyone who has ever gone through the process will know that there’s a lot more to it than just picking a vehicle that looks good, drives well and comes at a good price.

While we all know we should check under the bonnet before committing to a sale, there could be plenty more going on under the surface than meets the eye.

A staggering one in three used cars could have a hidden history, from cars that have previously been written off in an accident, to motors that have had their odometers clocked, it is important you know exactly what you need to look for and ask, to ensure you really know the history of the car you are purchasing.
