Never had a mini without either, I did start under sealing them before they go for mot then the bloody tester puts that down "car has been heavily undersealed" you cant bloody win Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's me 615 Posted December 12, 2017 site now changed again surprised you guys are literally buying used washing machines on wheels but not willing to do a slight in depth investigation of the cars history i guess im one of the few that can read much more from the dvsa site than your average trader Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pmpants 14 Posted December 13, 2017 We check every car we buy religiously before bidding, and against the cars service history. We also use Cazana to give a free "indication" of when keeper changes occurred, it's not 100% accurate, but there's nothing worse then buying one only to find out the last keeper change was 6 weeks ago!! All the time the details of the mot testing stations is omitted from the .gov site we just use Cazana, I wish everyone used the free checks available then it may stop average cars values being pushed through the roof!!

Do the same stuff with cazana. It helps a lot. By the way, speaking of surveys, did you know that taking online surveys may be paid for? I was really shocked when I discovered this article on https://yourmoneygeek.com/surveys-for-money/. It offers really useful info, if you're striving to earn extra money almost doing nothing. I personally discovered many reliable sites there which I can use. So, I advise you to check this article! Edited April 9, 2020 by DanielStone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
