Essential Precautions to Consider When Purchasing a Pre-Owned Car Of late, people have begun realizing the virtue of investing in a pre-owned car rather than a new one. More people are choosing to shop for a car in the used car market. The extensive options and affordable pricing are huge attractions. However, certain precautions must be adopted for a safe and valuable investment in a used vehicle. Adopt these precautions 1. Examine the car thoroughly Comprehensively examine the car to satisfy yourself that the claims made by the seller are true. Minutely examined the exterior body and look out for issues such as scratches, scrapes, dents, peeling paint, mismatched paint shades, rust, corrosion, etc. Examine the cabin and look for faded or damaged upholstery, malfunctioning electrical accessories, damaged trim, etc. Also, look for signs of mold or fungus which could indicate water damage to the vehicle. 2. Test drive the car
Never purchase a used car without first test-driving it. Take the curve for an extended test drive and test its performance on various road conditions. Check the suspension on smooth roads and roads with potholes. Also, drive through high-traffic city roads and open highways. Ensure you feel comfortable driving the vehicle. Turn on the electrical accessories in the cabin and check how they function. 3. Verify the mileage Check the mileage displayed on the odometer. Based on how old the car is, calculate the average mileage. Ideally, it should not exceed 20,000 km per year. Cars with mileage about this figure could experience excessive wear and tear and may neither perform well nor provide longevity. 4. Verify vehicle history Obtain a copy of the vehicle history report either from the seller or by downloading it from an online portal. The vehicle history report will provide a detailed service history of the vehicle, accident history, title details, etc. Verify that the seller has a good title to the vehicle and is entitled to sell it. 5. Verify paperwork Once you have verified that the car is in good condition and can be purchased, the next step is verifying the paperwork of the vehicle. These include the registration certificate, the chassis number/VIN, vehicle insurance, service document, pollution certificate, certificate of no encumbrance, etc. These are the main precautions you must adopt when purchasing a used vehicle Dubai, Abu Dabi or other emirates .
