I'd say you should bring someone with you (like your dad or a guy friend or a mechanic or something) who knows about cars. And then if you have a car you really like, make sure you get it inspected before you actually buy it.



Good luck with it! :)

Get everything checked out, (including the car and the person or company selling it to you) look at previous history and quality, etc.



Take care,

Theres actually a lot of sense in that, besides the fact that you would get killed by the 'friend' when they find out they are being used. :rolleyes: :wacko:
