问题1.According to the passage, in buying a second-hand vehicle it is most important to know
1.The scariest part of buying a used car is not being completely sure of what condition its in. A car thats been in a major accident is always a bigger risk, but sellers often try to hide this information. Andrew Bleakley, evaluator-inspector, runs a mobile vehicle inspection service in Montreal. For about $80 he will perform a full, unbiased inspection on a used vehicle. In his 10years as a professional inspector, Bleakley has seen a lot. He warns, “Watch out for dealer demonstration vehicles which are used, not new. They may have been in a collision.”
