Somewhere out there, your perfect car is waiting. There, advertised among the thousands of used vehicles for sale, is the one you are looking for. The right model, the right colour, the right mileage.
Used car hunting can be a trying experience and not everybody is up for it. Trawling through hundreds of used car ads, marking the ones you are interested in, phoning up the sellers, arranging viewings, driving the cars… It is a lot of trouble to go to, but for some it is an adventure.
Go car hunting with clear intentions. Determine what the highest mileage is that you will settle for and decide which colours you would consider (be flexible, used car buyers cannot always have the colour they want!).
First, make a list of all the cars that you are interested in. Then phone the sellers. Try to find out as much as possible over the phone, lest you drive all the way over to find that the car is a wreck you would never have considered. Confirm the mileage, ask if there is a full service history, ask whether any significant mechanical maintenance jobs were done on the car, such as a new clutch, new CV joints or a gearbox or engine overhaul.
Plan your appointments for the same morning and make firm appointment with all the sellers in a set order. Get precise directions over the phone and plan the trip in a circle. Include likely travelling time when making appointments, leave at least 45 minutes to view and drive the car and make sure to stick to your schedule. Preferably, take an expert along to check the cars thoroughly. Don’t be disheartened if you try five different cars and you find something wrong with them all. It is your money and you have to decide what you are willing to settle for. Sifting through used vehicles for sale can take weeks for you to find the perfect one!
