Bleakley always recommends hiring all independent technician to inspect the condition of a used car before you buy it.The problem is finding someone qualified to do the inspection.Which he says generally doesn’t mean just any mechanic.A thorough mechanical inspection includes checking the compression，all major systems，including the engine，electrical and charging systems，transmission and drive line，fluids，brakes，suspension，and steering.Essential，too, is all inspection of the car’s body and finally a road test.There are，however, a few things everyone can do before buying a used Car： Do a visual check of the car.Look at the right rear door hinges.If they are very worn, or the door doesn’t close well，the car may have been used as a taxi.Holes in the roof could mean the car was used for deliveries.
