What to look for when buying a used car?
There are a few things you should look for when buying a used car. Firstly, try to have a budget in mind to help make your search easier. You should also look for a car that has a respectable number of miles on the clock, as it's good for vehicles to have been used as opposed to only bare usage. You also need to make sure you look for vehicles that will meet your needs, taking into consideration the style, size, colour, and how it feels to drive. The best way to assess all of these when buying a used car is to book a test drive
What to check when buying a used car?
When buying a used car, there are a few things you should check to make sure it's right for you. With Macklin Motors, you can trust that all our used vehicles are prepared to the highest standard mechanically and cosmetically, though you should feel free to have a thorough inspection of the vehicle yourself. After all, it's your decision. Some checks you may want to keep in mind are: - Checking the bodywork for any unresolved dents, scratches, or rust - Checking the windows and lights for any signs of damage - Checking tyres to ensure sufficient tread depth and quality - Checking the spare tyre and sealant kit are provided with the vehicle - Ensuring the locking wheel nuts and adaptor are supplied - Checking for leaks and spills - Checking for corrosion in or around the bonnet - Checking the interior is clean, must-free, and comfortable - Checking brake fluid levels and power steering - Checking the battery health - Making sure all locks and doors work efficiently - Making sure there are two sets of keys provided - Checking for any dashboard warning lights showing on the display - Making sure lights and wipers work correctly - Checking the air conditioning and heating work - Making sure all documentation for the vehicle is present - Checking the sound system and connections
When taking a used car out for a test drive, you may also want to make sure:
- The engine starts smoothly with no issues - All buttons and dials are working - There are no unexplained noises which could signal an issue - The transition is smooth and not mechanical or clunky - The brakes are in good working order - You know how all of the controls workWhat is the cooling-off period when buying a used car from a dealer?
When you buy a used car, you'll be entitled to a 14-day cooling-off period in case you change your mind. This is valid from the moment you purchase it, up to 14 days after you receive your vehicle. If you change your mind, you can return it to the dealership you purchased it from and receive a full refund - no questions asked.
What about the warranty when buying a used car?
This will vary depending on the manufacturer of the car you choose. The dealership should give you information on this and you should also be able to check the vehicle's documentation to see whether it is still under warranty. Some manufacturers offer a more specific warranty so it's best to check with your dealer to make sure you're aware when choosing your used car.
What are my rights when buying a used car?
When buying a used car, or a new car for that matter, you have several rights you should be aware of. The Consumer Rights Act 2015 has long been protecting customers with virtually any purchase they make - including cars. The Act states that any car sold must meet several factors, including being of satisfactory quality, fit for its purpose, and as described by the dealer. It also means that if you are unhappy with a car you've purchased, you have 30 days to reject it and receive either a repair, replacement or refund from the dealer depending on the reasons for rejection. The Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 also protects you in several ways when buying a new or used car. These state that dealerships must not act unfairly in order to make a sale, including giving false or incorrect information about a vehicle, acting aggressively, or coercing you into making a purchase, failing to meet reasonable expectations, and several banned practices such as claiming a vehicle will be available for a limited amount of time. You are also protected by and entitled to these rights when buying a vehicle online, so your experience should be no different than if you visited the dealership. Knowing your rights will help you to make sure you are only sold a quality, road-worthy vehicle at a price that is reasonable for its age and mileage. Source: Motors.uk
How do I tax a second-hand car?
Taxing a second-hand car is fairly simple, as you will do this in the same way as if you buy a brand new car. Using the GOV.UK's website, you can provide details about your vehicle to register it for tax, which you must do even if you are exempt from paying road tax for any specific reason. For this you'll need your V5C registration document, or your new owner's slip.
