    That's very low mileage for a 4 year old import Vauxhall Insignia. Most of them being imported are ex fleet cars that spend alot of time on the road so I'd be checking the service history carefully and ringing the garages that serviced it to verify what they did matches that mentioned in the service history.

    These are the reading I got from the motor check report.

    Seems to have been serviced regularly but appears to have been in 3 times in one month in 2013. Not sure if that's a bad thing or not ?

    Sorry for double post not sure what forum id get the best advice from.

    I'm looking to buy this car before the end of the week

    http://m.carsireland.ie/detail.php?ad_id=1144446&r=s.php%3Fm%3D63%26o%3D1405%26i%3D70000%26ot%3Dm%26yn%3D2011%26g%3D0

    Now I'm just wondering what I should look out for ? What should I be checking ?

    I already got a motorcheck report done and it looks good and appears to be services yearly.

    So what should I be doing or checking for before I part with my cash ?

    Stenson's are a reputable seller, the guy that runs it is the local Opel specialist indy. I'm pretty sure he used to work for an opel main dealers.

    The company my dad works for bought a used van off them a couple of years ago, again with really low mileage. Hasn't given an ounce of trouble.

    PS: I've no affiliation to them. Just my 2 cents!
