How do u safely buy a car long distance.?

Make contact with someone in the area if that is an option. Ask that person to go out and view the vehicle and then report back to you. Have the seller do a video chat while demonstrating the good condition of the vehicle. There are all kinds of live chats these days. Have them upload a video to Youtube and you can check the date the video was made by telling them to do it on a certain day and have a newspaper or soemthing in the video displaying the date.

Yes i agree but expect to pay a little more for the vehicle

Quite simple, the only secure way is to use a third party inspection facility such as Lemon Squad, you can not worry about purchasing a vehicle when a reliable company is going over the vehicle and giving you an unbiased opinion.

(DISCLAIMER: I'm a Chevy dealer trying to help answer questions first, maybe sell a vehicle, but that's secondary.) 1) The vehicle you're trying to find is nearly non-existent: there's a reason we don't make the full-size hybrid vehicles anymore. They didn't sell well because there was almost no difference in fuel mileage. 2) Look at online dealer reviews. We sell vehicles all over the US because of our reputation. 3) If you buy a vehicle online, get it in writing that your deposit is refundable of you don't like the vehicle once you see it. My dealership doesn't require a deposit (we do business on a handshake), so that part for us is easy.

I had a bad experience with Lemon Squad. I had an inspection done but had a feeling that the quality was just not there (they had missed some obvious scratches and the car had some vibrations that I felt were outside the norm for the vehicle). I brought it into a local mechanic about 3 weeks after their inspection and found that I needed 2800 dollars in repairs. When I asked for a refund Lemon Squad told me since it was after 14 days I could take a hike. They really don't stand behind their inspections.
