Questions to ask the seller

Questions worth asking any seller before you hand over money:

  1. Has this car been in any accident or had any structural, airbag, or flood-related repair? Do you have a clean title and a recent history report (Carfax / AutoCheck)?
  2. How many owners has it had, do you have the maintenance records, and why are you selling it?
  3. Are you open to me having an independent mechanic inspect it before we settle on a price?
