ppi= Pre Purchase Inspection

FYI- there was at least one horror story on here (or renntech) where a guy bought car after a great PPI, only to find months later there was significant damage due to an accident... damage that the PPI did not find.

Note that one symptom of a worn clutch is that it gets "heavier." Make sure that clutch wear gets checked.
