Check by pressing down on each side of the wheel are there any creaks, squeals, may be a sign of the shocks or springs not working.
Make a list of all the faults of the cars, list them according to the expense they may cost to repair, and minus from the cost of the car.
Remember if the cost of repair is higher then it is not worth the hassle.
