[QUOTE="nizar, post: 536223, member: 19559"] hello Zib, My personal opinion is 1. Try to buy a car right from its owner. Then you can see the real condition of the car and you can get the reliable story of its history. But you may hv to go thru the hassle of loan application since you hv to do it on your own. Honestly, I hv very low level of trust when it comes to second hand car salesman/dealers. OR 2. Get a car from a reliable AP dealer (if your budget permits). Quite a number of reputable AP dealers sell reliable AP cars and in fact many of them provide 1 year or 25k km selected mechanical warranty (for major parts eg engine, gear box, steering box, rear axle etc) as since 2010 they purchased insurance for this purposes. Used imported cars from Japan (ideally) or UK are hardly trashed since their road conditions are far much better than us including driving behaviour. I bought an E60 525i year 2005 UK spec magnesium engine almost 2 years ago from an Importer (happens to be my fren) and he was honest where I had the car fully checked and diagnosed by an independent BMW specialist prior to the purchase. So far the car is running well. Thank GOD. U may have to fork out from your pocket slighty more but you can enjoy low loan interest of a new car [/QUOTE]
