Buying a used car is something of a concern as they might not be in as good they describe.They possess more tension than buying a new one.Moreover dealers might trick you into buying a bad car they might make you spend a lot more than you expected for maintenance.Well here are some tricks you would want to consider or look for on buying a used car.


-Budget It is the first factor to consider on buying a car.You have to take into account things like how long you want to keep the car, Maintenance cost as well as running cost of the car.


-Chosing the car Next step is to chose the right car.In India when considering used car maruthi cars have most resale value.But it doesn't mean that they are the best.try different company like hundai as they make better quality cars and lasts better.Choosing he right car is totally up to you.Choose a car that comes on your budget.


-Age and type of car. If you want a car that is on a running cost try smaller cars.Larger cars cost a lot more on spares maintenance running cost etc.It would be best if you buy a car that is not 3 year older.Also try not believing totally odometer as they can be manipulated.If you are not a cars person get a mechanic to check the car to find the exact conditions of the car.I would personally advise you to prefer petrol cars over diesel.


-Next thing is to examine the car properly check for rust or other stuffs which indicates car car is not a worthy buy.You have to examine both interiors as well as exteriors open the boot and bonnet.


-Take a test drive. Test driving a car is the easiest way to find the condition of a car.check for any sounds, brakes and accelerator.Try 10 to 20 km on the car.


-Make sure the dealers are trustworthy and also make sure the car is not stolen.


-Make sure to go through the service history of the car.A good car will have a decent service history.


-Do a proper research on the model of car you are buying over the net or via an experienced mechanic.Also get an idea about most common problems that may occur in that model.


-Last but not the least always check for the papers and make sure the ownership of the car can be changed without much effort.
