Check the Exterior

Be sure to look at the body condition of the vehicle, walk around, and look for any scratches, dents, or anomalies in the panels. All parts should line up evenly. Check all doors, the hood, and the trunk to be sure everything opens and closes easily. Take note of the tires, they should all be the same brand and be in good condition. Check exterior lights to ensure there are no cracks or damage allowing moisture in the casing.

Inspect the Interior

The next step is to check the interior. When you enter the vehicle, can you detect any odors? Specifically, if you smell mildew or a musty smell the vehicle may have had water damage. Check the upholstery for any tears, damage, or stains. Make sure any automatic features of the seat are working correctly as well and you can adjust seating to your specifications. If the vehicle has a sunroof, make sure there are no signs of leakage.

Under the Hood

Most importantly you want to be sure to thoroughly inspect what’s under the hood. Inspect the belts, and hoses and check the fluid levels, including engine oil. Look beneath the vehicle to see if there are any leaks.
