The thing that worries me is that it was around 1,000 under priced, and from an independent dealer (not chrysler). I have a 6 month warranty for the car covering problems up to 1,000 GBP, so if something is wrong it shouldn’t be too much a problem.

The question I am asking is, is there anything I should look out for when I go pick it up? Do they have any trademark problems?

Thanks.

EDIT:
Thought I would just add, when I pulled away for the test drive, my girlfriend said she noticed a little white smoke come out the exhaust, I’m not sure how much it was, but she said "it looked normal, wasn’t loads, but I noticed it". I know nothing about cars, so not sure if this a warning sign? (the car was cold when started, not sure if this makes any difference).
Uh before you fully commit, I suggest you only buy from a Chrysler dealer. Don't mess around with used car lot dealers, your looking for trouble.
