there things must be done b4 buying a used car. 1. gather a lot of information about the car(go ask around on the forums especially for the car, there're experienced people to answer your question) 2. Test Drive(if the engine has problem, usually u can tell a bit from a test drive, try all the gears & gently rev to the red line) 3. sent it to a mechanics for inspection

i sent my car for inspection after purchasing the car, i was lucky the car was fine, however, i didn't gather enough information about my car(turbos usually last for 90k to 100k), that's why my car is a garage waiting for its new turbos.
moral of the story, if u r buying a used car u must do ur homework, if not u're at the seller's mercy.

if u r doing a private buy would the owner allow u to rev to the redline..?
and could u plz tell me where is a good place to go test drive
cuz if u wanna rev to the redline in 5th gear u need a place where u can drive that fast.

u'll have to tell the seller that u wanna test the engine throughout the whole powerband to see if there's hesitation, so u'll rev to the redline, usually the seller wouldn't reject, or the might be some problem with the engine the seller wouldn't want u to find out
u don't have to rev to redline from first gear to 5th, it'd be dangerous and unnecessary. rev to second grar redline then u'll have a idea how the engine perform, try all the gears to see if there's a problem with gear box, usually it's the syncro that has a probelm, they break easily.
long and straight road or high way would do. i test drove my Z32 on a high way.

yeah...never buy used car...
i am a super-victim..
搞的我一年都不能開車...

hey....mind sharing your exp with used car with us???



很有興趣知道 what happened....

I'm not saying all 修車廠 are bad....but there are certain ones on Kingsway that are pretty 黑店~

ever heard of a rusted rocker panel fixed with "ALUMINUM FOILS"~!!!

yep...that's right....the stuff you use to wrap food before sending them on BBQ or oven with...

夠誇張吧....they just cover up the rusted panel with the foil and then pain over it....

平時如果沒注意不會發現.....my friend was washing the car then he ran over the spot and it just all crumpled.....
:angry fir :angry fir :angry fir

還好 within 30-day exchange, so he just took it back and traded for another one

他的修車廠就在kingsway上.........
真的很黑.............算我很貴.........
我還打電話去說....網路上加拿大車子的網站明明就比你的少二~三千塊...
他才說.... 那我也算你那個錢.............

早知道就說少一點.................
我就跟我媽說了.......她就一定要跟他買.....

什麼問題要問他...........
他居然要我自己去原本他拿去弄的店問他們.........
氣得我要死........ ><

所以才會換..............
換這家朋友認識的..... 好太多了......
