Tips On Buying Second Hand Cars

Buying second hand cars could prove to be a great idea these days. With a flourishing market for used cars and vendors vying for your attention, the price advantages are truly lucrative. Most of these cars are refurbished and serviced before they are sold to you. Most importantly, you can choose your coveted brand and make, if you decide to settle for a second hand version of the same.

Preparatory Steps

The purchasing process for a used car is not much different from buying a new one. In both cases, you need to decide the model and make at the very outset. It is very important to make a realistic choice based on your needs and usage. If you plan to go in for financing options, it is important to speak to the financiers before purchase. Sit down with them to work out a thorough plan for the payment schedule. Everything including the down payment, the financed amount, the duration for payback and the monthly installments must be made clear.

If you are buying directly from the owner, it is important to verify his social status and reputation before buying a vehicle from him. Alternatively, it is also a great idea to buy used cars from dealers who possess an entire range of second hand cars for sale. Pre owned cars which are available with dealers are likely to be maintained better and refurbished professionally as well. Alternatively, a car supermarket which specializes in second hand cars is also a great source for landing a better choice.

It is always better to test drive the chosen car, before paying the amount required for the purchase. Also, check the driveability when you are planning to purchase pre owned vehicles.

Cost Saving Tips

Some smart moves can actually help you save some hard cash while purchasing second hand cars. Certain things that you need to check out before you buy include:

* Check the year of registration. If it is a model which is more than five years old, you can ask for some additional discount.

* Test drives the car to check if the engine facilitates a smooth start. Check on the emissions and the driveability. If the engine performance does not satisfy you, ideally you should reject the deal even if the discounts are handsome.

* Check if the battery has been replaced with a new one. If it is old, you can ask for additional rebates.

* Check on the condition of the tyres.

* Check if the car has been repainted or not. If it has, there has probably been some accident or mishap. In such cases, you can ask for further discounts.

* If the car has an audio system or an air conditioner, check if they are in a working condition. If they aren't, you need not pay for them.

These simple checks can help you save substantially on used cars.
