I had seen his 3 page PPI sheet and so I knew of the measurements he'd be doing. The guy doing the job matters ... how many times have you heard that.
I'd suggest finding the mechanic before the car. Often they can point you to a car whose history they know and whose seller motivation they can attest.

The last part is very good info. Check with your local PCA for mechanics and go talk to them. They usually know of an owner that may be looking to sell. I would call the dealer of the '00 Base to see if they have any knowledge of the car's service history or better yet, show up in person. I was able to talk to the garage that took care of my car and they were able to assure me that it had been well taken care of. Patience is the key in your search, wait for the "right" one
