[Hi, New guy, car check?]

Thanks John, I have heard AA can do a mobile inspection, so I will probably do that, but I think I would feel more confident in doing a more thorough check somewhere else, even if I buy the car first.  What is recommended to do with a (new) car, that is 22 years old when you buy it?  

[Hi, New guy, car check?]

Hey all, first post here.

 

Short snippet here, Im 32, backpacker, in NZ for a year, don't drive, currently learning, looking at a Forester to be first car for 4 months or so while driving around this country, spotted one but recommended to get a Subaru master to check it out, make sure all is fine and won't need to much work.  I have seen previous posts mentioning a 'Rick Wheeler' who is in Lower Hutt, which would be perfect as the car I am looking at is there.  Also saw people mentioning Ray Hartleys in Welly CBD, but if I could get somewhere in Lower Hutt, would be preferred, recommendations welcome.  I think that's it.

 

If posted in wrong area, sorry, forum users first timers can get posts accidentally in wrong location.

 

Thanks,

Ryan.
