[Advice for a novice - used cars]

An independent inspection sounds like a good plan! I have a family friend who works with cars, so I'll bring him along!

[Advice for a novice - used cars]

Morning!

The reason I joined this forum was to increase my knowledge about cars, and my first question is about buying a used car!

I'm looking to purchase this VW Scirocco TDI CR GT 3dr for about £10,000 (http://www.umberslademotors.com/vw-scirocco-tdi-cr-gt-3dr-in-solihull-6144781) but I have some questions that I don't want to ask the sales people because I know they'll just BS me:

1. Is this a good price for a VW Scirocco?
2. Are there any benefits of buying second hand over new?
3. Are there any better cars I can get for £10,000
4. Is there anything I should look out for when buying a used car? Good and Bad

Any help muchly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
