    110 point inspection from who the seller? You can take the vehicle to a AAA approved shop and they can do a pre-purchase inspection. Ask them to have an ASE certified mechanic inspect the vehicle and ask alot of questions. Has the vehicle been in a wreck? A good mechanic can tell if a car has been in a wreck and fixed poorly from 20 feet away. A good mechanic can tell if a car has been in a wreck and fixed great with a good inspection, (i.e. paint over spray on plastic is one that comes to mind.) See if the seller has kept records on maintenance or if any major parts have been replaced. Check the color of the fluids, coolant, power steering, brake fluid, transmission fluid, if it is dirty be wary of the way the car had been maintained until this point. Hope this has helped in steering you in the right direction.
