Hi,

I am thinking of purchasing a second hand 2004 BMW 520 2.2 petrol for €5,500 with 91k on the clock. When I compare similar models same year for sale they are minimum €6k more expensive. Am I missing something or just getting a good deal? Just an opinion please.

Thanks, J

Is a black Toyota Land Cruiser a good colour to buy new?

Are Volkswagen Boras good cars?

I drove a 2011 Focus today and its mileage clock was in miles. Are all Fords like this or is this car an import from the UK?

Should I be concerned about the high mileage on a 2008 Volvo S40? It's 110,000.

How good is the Mercedes 190 diesel?

How reliable is the Ford Focus 1.8 TDCi Sport?

Is it cheaper to buy a 2018 Peugeot 3008 in Dublin instead of Wexford? We are finding the delivery charges as high as €2,100.

I am purchasing a used car imported from the UK by a dealer in Dublin who appears to specialise in this type of car sales. I have paid a small deposit to the dealer but have discovered via a Cartell.ie check that the vehicle has outstanding finance of a type called 'Unit Stocking' from a UK finance company. Interestingly the start date is shown as 01/02/2018 with a term of six months. I was told there was no finance outstanding on the car and the vendors appear to be respectable and trustworthy.

What steps should I take to protect my interests prior to completing the purchase?
