More Questions To Put To A Used Car Dealer

By Musa Aykac

If you are buying used cars then there will be questions you will want to be asking the dealer. In order to get the information that you require and to let the dealer know that he can't con you, the following are examples of the questions that you should be asking.

Where Did The Vehicle Come From?

Dealers are unlikely to give you the exact details but you want as much information as you can get. If you find that the car came from a different dealer then you can probably assume it is a hard sell. If used cars were bought at an auction you will want to check to make sure that it has been fully checked for any problems.

What Length Of Time Will You Be Able To Take The Car For A Test Drive?

It is important that the dealer allows you to drive the car over a few different surfaces and for at least a half hour so that you can really get a feel for the car. When going for a test drive it is a good idea to go alone if you think other people will distract you and one thing you should never do is take your kids with you. Try not to fall into conversation with the dealer during the test drive; you want to be able to listen for car noises. The silence may also make the dealer feel a bit uncomfortable and they may let some useful information slip in other to fill the void.

Will The Dealer Provide Any Extras With The Car?

Before even mentioning extras you should be certain that the price for the car is as low as its going to go. If a dealer thinks he will get you to close the deal he might be willing to throw a few free things your way. Services and free oil changes are some of the things you can ask for. Most dealers will want to give you as little as they will get away with so you will have to drive a hard bargain.

Whenever you happening to be looking for cars for sale, it's always best to carry out a proper research ahead of time. Researching allows you to find the very best used cars for the category you are looking for. When your research is done, you could very well end up with a great used vauxhall or even a used toyota.
