Things You Need To Know Before Buying a Used Car


 
 

With the continuous increase in the prices of cars, opting for a used car is not a bad option at all. There are certain important things that one should consider before buying a used car.

Engine is the first thing you should check thoroughly and make sure that there is no any kind of smoke.Some of any kind or any colour means there is any fault. It may be a minor issue or an extreme issue that needs a complete rebuilding of the engine. You should also notice the noise that the car makes other than the ordinary sounds.

OBD scanning can be a useful tool if you are looking for a hybrid car. 

Second thing is to look if the car has been in any accident or know.For that purpose fades and change of color on the panels must be checked cleverly.If the bumpers if the car have scuff marks or shades of different colors that means the car might has been in an accident in the past.Also don't forget to look for any signs of de
nting and repairing on the body of the car.

Unfortunately we can not trust the odometer fully as tampering of odometer is a normal activity used by car dealers so the door handles, Steering wheel and gear knob can show the true signs about the usage of the vehicle. Door and boot alignment must be checked if they close properly or if the are misaligned. 

A test drive can tell you a lot about the car rather than just staring at it. Drive the car and try to feel if the car loses all over the road or stays tight. A used car may not give you the feeling of driving a brand new car but it may show some of its build qualities.Check for all the noises and sounds while test driving the car. It will help you to determine the real condition of the car. 

Lastly, if all the above mentioned tips satisfy you then you must check the documentation of the vehicle you are buying. Check the documents thoroughly to know if the car has a clear record from different institutions including excise and taxation and Police as used cars are more prone to be used in erroneous acts. It is suggested to accompany yourself with a good friend of yours while checking the car and discuss with him about the certain things.He can help you in case you missed to check anything.
