Five Tips For Buying A New Car - Articles SurfingIn order not to be left with an *old crate* some common sense should be used when looking to buy a used car. While most people will have some idea of cars, others know very little about them and some of the scams that dealers will pull in order to make a sale. To help you on your quest for the car of your dreams, here are top five tips to remember when looking. First of all, while you will give the car an overall check yourself, very few of us know the ins and outs of what makes a car tick. In order not to get ripped-off, have a professional give the car a once over before parting with your money. Always make sure you get the car checked out for having being stolen or to see if there is an outstanding finance on it (which you would be liable for if you took on the vehicle). You can do this online via a Vehicle Data Check service. Make sure that you do a lot of research before purchasing. Look around at websites and compare what your choice of car is roughly going for price wise, this can help you get a better idea if you are getting a bargain with your choice. If the car you are interested in is over three years old then it should have a valid MOT certificate. The car should also come with a new style DVLA registration document not an old V5 style. Keep your eyes open for signs that the cars mileage could have been tampered with. Signs to look for are chips around the grille and bumper. If there are chips then this could indicate a higher mileage than the meter suggests. Also look on the dashboard for signs that it has been tampered with such as loose screws. Bear all these pointers in mind and you should be able to nab yourself a true bargain!
