Buyers know an inspection is crucial in finding the best value in a used car.
But few know how to perform an examination that will separate the good from the
mediocre. Employing the simple tips below will be instrumental in getting a
great deal on a use car that could, with proper service, keep you happy for
years to come.
Inspecting the Body:
Examine the car up close, looking for dents, chipped paint, mismatched body panels, and chipped windows. If the shock absorbers are in good shape, the car should rebound just once. Look down the side of the used car to see if all the panels and bodywork line up smoothly. Check the tires. With help, make sure turn signals, head lights, and brake lights are working.
Checking the Interior: Check radio reception on AM and FM, and
test the tape or CD player if possible. Test all the lights, controls, heater
and air conditioner. The steering wheel should rotate smoothly from lock to lock
without any unusual noise or vibration. Power windows should glide. Check all
fluid levels.
Mechanical Inspection:
So, you checked out the car inside and out. Make sure you have a certified mechanic inspect the used car. If seats are sagging and warn, if pedals are well worn, or if the tires are not original or have excessive wear than the mileage should not be very low. Don't ever rush an inspection on a used car.

Warminster Township is a township in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, United States. The population was 31,383 at the 2000 census. The town was named for the town of Warminster in Wiltshire, England. According to the United States Census Bureau, the township has a total area of 10.2 square miles, all of it land. In December 1776, Bucks County became the setting for Gen. George Washington and his troops as they prepared to cross the Delaware and storm Trenton, New Jersey on Christmas Day. The attack caught the Hessian army by surprise and would represent a turning point in the American War of Independence.
The town of Washington Crossing, Pennsylvania and Washington Crossing Historic Park were named to commemorate the event. The executive government is run by a three-seat Board of Commissioners, one member of which serves as chairperson. Commissioners are elected through at-large voting and serve four-year terms. In cases of vacancy, a panel of county judges appoints members to fill seats.
Bucks County lies in the southeastern edge of the state along the Delaware River. Most of the land is typical of the piedmont region, with hills becoming more distinct further north. Unlike in the Southern Piedmont, soil in the Pennsylvania Piedmont has historically been fertile, giving Bucks County large areas of valuable farmland. With the decline of the farming industry, debate has arisen over how much of this open space should be preserved, and how much should be allotted for commercial and residential development. The southern third of the county between Philadelphia and Trenton, New Jersey, often called Lower Bucks, resides in the Atlantic Coastal Plain, and is flat and near sea level, and the county's most populated and industrialized area.
