I never buy from traders.
I still remember a chav mate of mine who bought a corsa from a trader, ecu was on it's way out, potential headgasket failure. He traded it in while buying another car from a trader, all the guy did was turn the car on and rev it once and that's it the car was accepted and would be sold to the next poor owner.
I'd rather buy private and speak to the owner about it's history/problems etc
