Hey I'm looking at buying a honda civic or accord roughly around a 95 to 98 and roughly around 110k to 140k i know they last for ever and I'm just looking for a reliable car for around $3,000. what should i check when buying one. i know to check the steering fluid and see if it smells bad to tell if the seals are going and to check the oil for anything unusual, and to check the front CV joints for blown boots, breaks. what else should I check for. i'm buying a car this weekend and the first one i'm looking at is a 96 accord LX with 137k well taken care of asking 2,880 I know its above kbb but I Don't want to buy junk.
