I am looking at buying a 2013 Mazda CX-5 in Whangarei. I live in Invercargill. Is this a good idea.

Hi there,
It must be a good price!
I recommend buying a history report if the vehicle is not a fresh import. This will tell you if there is any finance registered against it, and if it was potentially a stat write-off ect.
Also get a pre purchase inspection, to give a full indication into the vehicles condition.

Thanks for information. I got a history report and that was good.
I also got a AA vehicle inspection revealing the car needed a new rear tyre, which they are replacing. I have purchased the car. Thank you for your advise.
