Carproof has saved my butt more than once.....
When you are interested in a vehicle and you want to get it inspected, you will probably have to give the seller a deposit. Just write on the deposit that it is 'conditional upon satisfactory vehicle inspection. Come to an agreement with the seller that anything over a certain amount...say over $250.00, would require further negotiations on the price...If the vehicle is still under warranty, I generally dont do pre purchase inspections....but I do take the VIN to a dealership and have them run it...they will tell you if the Warranty is still valid and in effect on the car. They used to be able to tell you the work history, but now most wont do that because of the weird privacy laws....
Good luck
