After years of waiting, I am finally in a position to buy my dream pre owned luxury sedan. I am excited but also really want to make sure I do it right and don't end up with a car that has expensive hidden problems. I have been reading a lot of smart advice for secondhand luxury vehicles to educate myself before I start visiting showrooms or meeting private sellers. One guide I found was particularly helpful because it covered everything from checking the vehicle's accident history and service records to inspecting the engine, transmission, and all the high tech features that can be costly to fix later. It also stressed the importance of a proper test drive. For those of you who have been through this process here, what was the most valuable piece of information you had before you bought?
