I am currently in the middle of buying a car and the dealer said he will include a 3 point immobiliser. I'm not sure if it has been installed in the car already or not. How am i able to test or find out it has a 3 point immobiliser.

Jump in car and try to start with just key. If it don't then there's your immobiliser

maybe get the brand of alarm you want and make the importer install that also common faults is the central locking acutator it'll need to get replaced sooner or later so import to check that. for the ep if it has an immob there should be a led bulb next to the changing mirrors button.
