Hey AMINT, its a pleasure to have you join us.
Was enjoying the drive even though it was abit messy going the wrong way most of the time
Edwintst,
First thing I would advice you to look out is the Chassis number. The 10th figure on the chassis number indicates the manufacturing year so you would have an idea of the age of the car.
Secondly, do check on the tyres and brake pads. Check whether they are worn off, the age of the tyre and assure that 4 tyres are the same brand. Some dealers or previous owners might swap it out for cheap tyres after it was worn out or burst.
Thirdly, check on the gearbox. Try the car on a slow pace to check on whether there is any jerking or "kangaroo" effect. Mostly happens on the first, second and reverse gear.
Lastly, send your car to reputable or trustable workshop to check on fault codes and history of the car. Hoist up your car and check whether there is any leaking of engine or transmission oil.
