There will always be ownership horror stories with vehicles. "Caveat emptor" and all that, but how do you check if the dealer selling to you actually owns the vehicle he's selling? Especially if it's a recent import. I don't want to hand it back to the rightful owner!!
1. I can check the VIN number in the manual and on the vehicle. (Drivers door jamb + thru passenger windscreen - right?).
2. I check the title and registration match the name and address of the dealer selling. But a new import is not going to have a V5C registration certificate for weeks. . . . . . .
I want to be prepared about what to look out for during the buying process....
Any guidance and tips will be most welcome.
