When purchasing anything, it pays to go in with a discerning eye. This is particularly true if you’ll be buying a used item, and even more pertinent when it’s a big expense like a used car. We always want our customers to find just the right vehicle, which is why there are two key areas they should focus on when looking at Scott used cars.

Mileage

It’s important to look at the miles on a car, but you don’t necessarily want to discount vehicles with high mileage. As long as they’re in line with the yearly average – which is about 14,000 – a car with a lot of miles under its hood could give you many more years of great performance.

And while a vehicle with low mileage may seem great, too low could be a problem. This could indicate that it sat for long stretches of time, which may be a bad sign.

Vehicle History Report

Before buying a car, you should know as much about it as possible. This is where the vehicle history report comes in.

This offers detailed information about how previous owners cared for the car, including the service it received. A history report will also let you know about any past repairs and replacements.
