LOL?
I put 'The owner', though there are so many considerations to take into account when buying a car. I'd look for signs that it had been cared for and not abused.
The thing that would send me running to the hills would be a 'modified' vehicle that was owned by a brainless Chav

I put mileage, the owner, lack of service history and large number of previous owners.
My previous car had high mileage, a previous owner who knew f*ck all about cars, no service history and 7 previous owners and it caused me never ending problems :bang:
When I got my Punto it had 6 miles, no previous owner and no need for a service history apart from the PDI stamp in the book

Accident damage, aftermarket sunroof, budget tyres (shows owner who didn't give a toss), bad maintennance, sellers with lots of tattoos.

An what exactly is wrong with silver cars?
Nothing at all, i got loads of mates with realy nice silver cars, the only problem i find is I dont SEE silver cars driving along. I have driven past my mates sooooo many times its embarassing, my brain just doesnt register silver cars. If i owned one i'd end up walking past it once id parked it
I put mileage and lack of service history.
Mileage depending on engine. If a cinq/sei had 100k plus i wouldnt really be interested in it and i would have to be in desperate need for a car to be at the time. If its a diesel high miles wouldnt bother me.
A lack of service histoy would put me off. especially if it was high mileage. I would want a load of receipts. You never know what probs there could be.
Number of owners could also put me off, it could have had the tits revved off it at some point.
Hence why i own a petrol estate with no service history, 153,000 miles and i am the 13th owner of it.....................
