It may be impossible to get a warranty for an older high mileage used car. In this case, it's even more important to have a mechanic check out that used car first. You don't want to inherit any surprise problems.
If you buy from a private seller, it's "As Is", you have no choice, so get an extended warranty. Have a good mechanic perform an inspection of the car. Why should you spend money on a mechanic? I'd rather spend a few dollars on a mechanic now, than $3000 on repairs later when the axle falls off. The mechanic is a great investment if it alerts you to a costly engine repair that even the seller was unaware of.
When buying a used car that is out of the manufactures warranty, you are at risk for costly repairs. Thats why we recommend buying an extended warranty
