Tips to sell Your Car

Posted by kindyer on June 25, 2008

Do you need to sell your car?
How do you intend to sell your car – confidentially, with a public sale, to a Dealer, or a TradeIn?
What is the value of your car? How do maximize your earnings from the car? Decide the timing of your sale – do not attempt and sell following Christmas or past a number plate modification. It is best to sell the car when it has a comparatively low mileage (below 42,000 for 3years Used Car). For older cars, it is important that the vehicle is in good condition at the time of sale, and has a clear history. You will need to present all applicable papers, so retain them in a file. Log book, MOT certificate, handbook and any receipts for repairs and spare parts.

Preparing to sell
· Clean the car inside and out – this can increase the value by hundreds of dollars!
· Swab the car with good car shampoo, wash and dry with a chamois.
· Shine the car – fine Tcut.
· Find an expert cleaner if you do not have the time or inclination necessary to clean the car well.
· Clean the instrument panel, windows and upholstery.
· Vacuum carpets and replace older, ragged mats.
· Do some maintenance – restore bulbs, retouch scratches, restore damaged windscreen wipers.
· Top up the oil, coolant, screenwash and brake fluid. It may also be useful to change the oil if the
car has not been recently serviced.
· Restore wheel trims. If the car has alloy wheels, make sure they are spotless.
· Some expert trimmings could be distorted, for example racing steering wheels, gear knobs or alloy
pedal covers.
· The entire above highlight that the car has been wellcared for, which is what buyers like to see.

Tips for buying a car

Posted by kindyer on June 25, 2008

Buying our dream car is something we all look forward to doing. However, there are quite a few things to
look into before we actually by one, as we will have many things on our mind and the car we go to see
must fit into all our requirements.

Make a list of all features you wish to have in your car such as the car color, engine requirements, space
requirements and so on. As you do this ask yourself the purpose for buying the car. Is it going to be used
merely for transportation or are you going to use it for family purposes? This is because the kind of car
you choose is largely based on how you intend to use it.

Fix a budget. Decide on how much you are ready to spend in buying a car. Once you set this, look into the
time of purchase. The best time to buy a car is at the end of the year when dealer are looking for
discounts and incentives to buy a car. The months between July and October is also an ideal time to buy
cars since car dealers will be selling off cars at low prices to make way for new car models. You can take
up factory incentives, which help to lower car costs.

Get information on car rate from different sites such as Cars.com, Yahoo!Autos, CarsDirect and
InvoiceDealers,. You will be well-informed on the pricing before you see the dealer. Check out cars within
your budget.
