1. Vehicle History

If you are thinking of buying a car, you'll want to know about its background first. That includes the car's ownership history and the date that it was first purchased. You can also use the vehicle identification number (VIN) to be less likely to buy a stolen vehicle or one that has been declared unfit for road usage, such as one damaged in a flood.

2. Check the Frame

Checking the car's frame is important to look for signs that it may have been involved in an accident. The paint should be the same colour all around, and there should be no mismatched components or parts out of alignment.
