If you thought that buying a used car is straightforward, then think again. Car dealers have to put up with some strange requests when they're trying to sell a car.

Used car dealers revealed the often strange – and sometimes downright bizarre – requests they have received from customers after the cool folk at CarGurus did a survey and found out some interesting information.

Among the oddest was a customer who wanted to take a car home to check if his dog liked it before he committed to buy, while one consumer wanted to know if he’d be able to fit a coffin in the back of a Ford Mondeo.

A survey was conducted to find the strangest questions asked by potential buyers at dealers.

While the survey results show a common theme of buyers asking questions around price and payment terms, below is a list of the ten weirdest questions asked by consumers before they decided whether to buy a car.
