Its always scary buying a used car. Hell even some new cars have problems which makes things like buying from a private sale or buying a sports car from a teenager pretty scary. I've had bad expereinces purchasing motorcyles but they do wear faster and have a shorter life than cars.
But that feeling of driving/riding home all happy only to wake up the next day to see your new toy in a puddle of oil just makes your eyes water.
On the flip side my mate bought a car and didn't do a revs check or was aware they existed and it was a repairable write off and hasn't had any problems with it forever now. Then again he doesn't race/thrash or do anything outside of normal driving.
