    Should I buy a demo car?

    Ford Ford Advice Ford Mustang Ford Mustang Advice Ford Mustang 2017

    I'm looking to buy a 2017 Mustang and am considering a demo model.

    If it has several thousand kilometres of test-drives that have probably all been thrashing the car from cold, rather than having an easy run-in period, is this likely to cause problems down the track?

    Would I be better just paying the extra for a new car?

    Demos are not generally abused; they are mostly driven normally with reasonable care, often under the supervision of a salesman.

    You’re worried unnecessarily, and besides, the car will still be covered by Ford’s warranty if it happens to have a problem.
