Skipped the inspection on my Bentley and paid the price

[zadokvenn]

Bought a used Bentley Flying Spur a couple years ago without getting it checked because I was too excited and the seller seemed honest. Big mistake. Within months the suspension started acting up and the repair bill was insane. Later a mechanic showed me signs of previous accident damage that was never disclosed. Since then I always tell people, "Looking to buy a Bentley? Get a certified inspection first" because it would have saved me thousands. My cousin is now looking at a Continental and I'm making sure he doesn't make the same mistake. Just sharing in case it helps someone else.
