Common things to check when buying in the Inner West.
Street-parking damage
Scuffed bumpers, kerbed wheels and repainted corners are common on cars that have never had a garage. Look past the detail job at panel alignment and wheel condition.
Short-trip engine wear
Cars that only do short hops can build up moisture and deposits in the oil and struggle to keep the battery charged. A low odometer reading doesn't guarantee a healthy engine.
Parramatta Road dealer stock
Dealer cars are usually cleaned and presented well. Check the service history and PPSR regardless of how the car looks on the lot.
Steering and suspension wear
Speed humps and full-lock parking load up tie rods, bushes and control arms. Listen for knocks and check the steering centres properly on the road test.
