If you have doubts about a cars past/mileage then the wear and tear on the pedals and gear stick etc give a nice indication.

Overall just take your time and spend wisely and best of luck with it.

I see you mentioned a 318i there.. why don't you try and get a quote for the saloon instead of the coupe? There could be a loading on the coupe.

Its important to actually ring the insurers btw, I couldn't get a quote online from a lot of companies.
