A small-car appraisal should verify the exact engine, clutch or automatic behaviour, suspension, tyres and electrical equipment rather than relying on presentation.
What to check
- 01
Watch every warning lamp illuminate and then clear normally.
- 02
Listen for suspension noise over a broken but safe surface.
- 03
Check clutch bite, gear selection and bearing noise from cold.
- 04
Run heating, air conditioning, windows, locks and infotainment.
- 05
Inspect the full tyre tread for uneven wear.
