So some idiot crashed into my car on Monday night (whilst it was parked). The best part? It’s happened twice in two years. Fun right?
Anyway. I’m viewing some cars tomorrow. I’ve got a budget. 4k at an absolute maximum (primarily because I’m convinced it’s going to get wrecked again).
I’m going on my own and I know next to nothing about cars so I’d really appreciate any tips or clues as to what to look out for.
Update
Looking at some more cars tomorrow with my step Dad. Fingers crossed. Your advice has been very helpful. Cheers.
Also when looking for oil leaks obviously also look to see if there are motor inspection tags/oil change tags (not sure how it is in the UK but where I live there should always be two tags in the motor compartment: one showing when the last oil change was and one with the general motor inspection date) because if either one is soon die that might/should also affect the price!
Wow, no, nothing like that in the UK, had a mate blow up an engine, he just didn’t put any new oil in it.
