Guys,

A couple of my friends are looking to buy used cars(maruti 800/alto/zen). We checked out a few used-cars dealers but they all seem to be pretty expensive(around 1.5lakhs for a 5+ year old 800). *
Is this the expected price? Or is there scope for a lot of negotiation?
Is it advisable to buy cars through classifieds like free-ads or ad-mags? Where can we get the car inspected for any major problems?
Checked out Maruti true-value too. They have very few cars and that too is overpriced.

Thanks,
Sid.
