Power steering fluid, radiator flush, brakes and tire check.

The basic Sony set dun come with Aux input.

Beware when sales person tells u everything also no prob!

its the auto gearbox..GLX runs on CVT instead of the usual 4 speeder..by right insurance shldnt be affected by manual or auto...but he may b right that auto cars are more popular now..and try to get as stock as possible..

Best is do a full servicing and let your reliable mechanic to do a whole car check for you.

 

What is the mileage like? Some high mileage cars need to change timing belt.

Try to get a car that is not modified at all ( I mean those with ecu or grounding or extra lightings, spoilers or side skirt is fine ) and check on the mileage, as low as possible.

I rmb reading somewhere that you should check on the servicing report/card to be double sure that the mileage on the vehicle matches that on the servicing records. There's a tendency that 2nd hand dealers may go adjust the mileage in the vehicle so as to reflect that the car is very low in its mileage.
