Been looking to buy a second hand car and after trolling the local(ish) garages today couldn't find anything decent in the car I wanted.
So got back home tonight and did another search this time a bit futher than I normally search.
One has come up, good condition, good milage, good spec and colour and seems a good buy.
However, it's about an hour and a halfs drive and it's a private sale. Now I have NEVER bought a car privately and you often hear horror stories etc. etc.
It's up for just over 4k (which to me is a lot of money) and I do wonder what I would do about the money, would I take it with me and do the deal there or leave a deposit and drive back and back down again, should I get an HPI check, AA check etc. done??
Whats the best practice in doing this.
Thanks
