Paypal is a c*nt and I would exclude it from anything and everything.
What you need if it all goes 'tits up' is a paper trail, as verbal agreements are not legally binding.
In a situation where it may be too far to travel to see the car / seller to put a holding deposit on then I would use instant bank transfer. It's non-reversable but provided they have this facility and can email you with a receipt for it then you do at least have something to go on.
If you've already seen a car and you want it I would just give them the money in cash where possible, get a hand-written receipt.
