What about the warranty?

I am buying a 2009 Ford Connect Tourino. The garage has told me it still has Ford warranty. It's only done 8000 miles, so what warranty should I expect from the independant dealer, and should I ask for one?

Find out how much Ford warrant it has left, in particular if it is disqualified from the Ford warranty and Ford dealer warranty. In any case the selling dealer is obliged to warrant it for any faults present or developing on date of sale for 6 months.
