Exterior Inspection

Check for rust, dents, paint mismatches, and panel gaps. Uneven gaps may indicate accident damage. Inspect tires for wear patterns and age.

Interior Check

Mechanical Inspection

Start the engine cold and listen for unusual noises. Check fluid levels and colors. Test brakes, steering, and suspension. A professional mechanic inspection is highly recommended.

Test Drive

Drive on various road conditions. Test acceleration, braking, handling, and transmission shifts. Pay attention to vibrations, noises, or warning lights.
