My first coupe was inspected by L&M as the seller lived nearby and was happy to take it in for me. Cost me around £60 for a good mechanical look over and report

Yep, my RAC inspection was pretty useless, when talking to the inspector on the phone, he said it was only the second Coupe he'd inspected. There was nothing wrong with the car, more Coupe-specific then it wouldn't have been picked up.
Definitely get it HPI'd though.

Im with Rog on this one - only good thing with AA is the HPI and mileage check but its the insurance that seems to be king just in case you end up with a 'donkey'.
Get one of the longer termers or have a word with one of the specialist to org a once over, the long termer will probably be able to point you in any direct interms of driving feel and faults but that will by no means give you an indication of mechancial condition that a specialist would.

The AA had a poor track record with car inspections so they no longer offer the service, you get redirected to a private company who charge you £140 for the pleasure !
I'd take it to Rog or Barbz if they have time to look it over for you .
