I'd be more concerned about buying the one that was involved in the accident but even then, I'm sure the repair work would be unnoticable.
the people who bought my first car were actually understanding in that they knew because i had had my rear bumper replaced (due to an accident), that my car wasn't going to fall appart from a twisted chasis
