welcome

as far as what to look for, just look at the overall condition of the car...you should be able to see how it's been taken care of or treated, which can help in your buying decision.

I'm selling my 2005 Mustang GT (see signature), it's got 29,9XX miles on it and I get asked all the time do I even drive it. I tell everyone that I drive it every chance I get, weather permitting, but I just take really good car of my stuff....and when you look at my car, inside & out, it definitely shows.

Good luck!

It wouldn't be a bad idea to take it to a trusted mechanic and have him give it a once over. Good luck with the purchase.

Does it come with a warranty? If not, I think you can purchase one through Ford or the stealership.
