Need advice on buying a car?

As an automechanic, what we recommend is a new purchase check. We test drive the car, then set it up on a lift and check everything humanly possible, to eliminate the chance that the car is a piece of junk. We charge one hour labor, ($74.50), and give a printed report to the customer. They can then decide if they want to buy the car, and if it needs work, they'll be able to negotiate a fairer price with the seller.
