Depends on the car, never bought from a dealer, only dealer bought car in the family has been a disaster, warranty valueless.
Buying private, buy the seller not the car. If you get a good feel about the seller thats a good starting point.2 -
Yes,I did the HPI checks MOT check and history test drove it, even took on the motorway. Had it for 8 years so far.
