The
National Motorists Association provides helpful tips on what to look for when shopping for a used car including how to profile the current owner to determine whether the vehicle has likely been properly maintained; the curb appeal and cleanliness of the vehicle; the vehicle's history; the price; and certain "signs" of vehicle problems such as overspray on the trim, signs of overheating, check engine lights, vehicle tracking, blue smoke, noisy/slipping clutch, interior wetness and engine clicking noises.
