1. Payment
Never send money abroad – it’s often the preferred method of a fraudulent seller acquiring money illegally. Pay for the vehicle when you physically collect it from the seller.
2. Price
Always check the vehicle’s market value by getting a valuation or comparing the price with other similar models advertised on Auto Trader. If it’s being offered at a much cheaper price, ask yourself why. If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.
3. Visit the seller
It’s really important you physically check the vehicle and see the documentation. Never buy a vehicle without seeing or driving it first, preferably in daylight when it’s easier to spot damage
4. Vehicle history check
5. Paperwork
You must see the original V5C document, service history and MOT certificates before handing over any money. Ensure all documents are the originals and not photocopies.
• Examine the authenticity of the V5C by holding it up to the light where you’ll see a DVL watermark
