- ✓On 1.4 MultiAir cars, annual oil changes with the right spec matter more than a low mileage headline.
- ✓Check Blue&Me, USB, steering-wheel buttons and the hatch electrics together because small electrical faults often travel in groups.
- ✓Listen for knocks from the front suspension and check MOT history for repeated bush or spring advisories.
- ✓QV and other sporty cars can hide hard use behind a tidy interior, so choose on paperwork and mechanical feel rather than appearance alone.
