If you haven't seen the car, it may not exist. Stick to cars that are close enough to your location that you can go look at them. Avoid cars that are located in another state or country, or even vehicles that are a few hours away. Try to purchase only from local dealers so that you can bring the car in to them if there's a problem. Be especially wary of sellers who say they will ship the vehicle to you. The average person puts 13,000 miles (21,000km) per year on a vehicle, so a car that is 3 years old would likely have around 40,000 miles (64,000km) on it. If the car has considerably fewer miles, then the seller may have tampered with the odometer. Note the appearance of the interior and the condition of the tires. If the interior or tires are well-worn, then the car's odometer may be inaccurate. Keep in mind that elderly people and teenagers tend to drive around 8,000 miles (13,000km) per year, so this could also account for lower mileage. Ask questions about the previous owner if the mileage seems low. Scammers may provide you with a forged report that leaves important details out of the car's history. Do not accept a report that the seller provides. Instead, look up the car's history using the vehicle identification number (VIN). You can search the VIN on a website like Carfax and get a full report. Be wary of any cars that were involved in accidents or that had ongoing issues. Scammers often try to avoid letting potential buyers take the car for a full test drive since this may reveal issues with the car. If the seller tries to rush the test drive, tell them you would like to drive it a little longer and in different conditions to see how well it works. If they say no or try to convince you that a longer test drive is not necessary, don't buy the car. During the test drive, drive the car at slow and fast speeds, pay attention to how well it brakes and turns, and note any unusual sounds. Unless you are car savvy yourself, it can be difficult to spot issues with a car. Bring along a friend who knows a lot about cars or ask the seller to meet you at your mechanic's garage to check the car for any serious issues. For example, a mechanic will be better equipped to check the engine for major issues and tell if the seller may have tampered with the car in any way.

Summary: Refuse to pay any amount of money for a car you've never seen. Compare the number on the odometer to other age-related features. Search for the car's history using the vehicle identification number. Request to take the car on a longer test drive if the seller rushes it. Ask to get the car assessed by your mechanic before you buy it.
