Step 4: Test Drive & Inspection: How to inspect a car in person (or by remote PPI) and how not to be taken for a ride on the first date. We give you the goods on what to do when you take a look at the car you are buying -- including key items you always want to check and a detailed checklist of other things you need to look at.
You may have noticed that we published part 1 of DT's 6-part series on How to Buy a Used Car but we got busy with other things and have neglected to publish the next parts as promised. We have no excuse other than being busy, but to the rescue comes Ian and Kim Lomax, founders of Jewel or Jalopy who offered to write up part 4...well...as they say in the vending machine industry...better out of order than out of mind!
