I would plan on asking for a Carfax report (or other vehicle history report), maintenance logs (3,750 mile oil-change should be coming up soon, and if they haven't done it yet, ask for it as part of the sale), I'll visually inspect it, test drive it, and maybe even take it to a body shop for them to look at. Does all that sound worthwhile / reasonable? I don't want to be a jerk asking / doing all this stuff, but with it having miles on it, I'd want to make sure it was in good condition.
