If you're thinking about purchasing a Vauxhall but are worried about being talked into buying a rust bucket by a Dell-boy, CoverGirl Car Insurance Services are hear to give you some useful advice on buying your next Vauxhall. Whether you want to treat yourself to a brand new Corsa or a classic Cavalier, take a look at the useful tips we have put together to help you along the way.
It can be either a very exciting or daunting experience buying a new car and to make sure you get the best deal out there, the girls here at CoverGirl HQ have put together some useful information on getting that dream car.
Buying from a private seller
One rule to definitely remember is to never buy a motor from a car park,
service station or any other general public area. If you have any immediate
problems with the car, say you break down on the drive home, you could
find it very difficult contacting the former owner.
Make sure that the Vauxhall is as described in the advert, if the condition of the car is not up to scratch, try and bargain a better price with the seller. The more money you have to spend on cheap car insurance, the better.
Buying from a dealer
When buying from a dealer, ensure that the car is as described, fit to
drive and of good quality. If you are buying a second-hand Vauxhall
ask to see the car's history. Again, if the vehicle is not quite up to
your expectations and you feel it's a little overpriced, use your negotiating
skills on the seller. You may also want to consider shopping for a well-established
dealership that belongs to a reputable association.
Buying at auction
You can often get a bargain from auction websites such as www.ebay.co.uk
but it's just as easy to get ripped off. With items being 'sold as seen'
you often don't know what you're getting until you go to collect it. If
the seller is living in an area near you, contact them and arrange a viewing
before the auction's end date.
Inspecting the Vauxhall
When you buy a vehicle, whether from a dealer or private seller, make
sure you carry out certain checks. Always ask to see an MOT certificate
as this will clarify the mileage and also show any major work that may
have recently been carried out on the vehicle.
With statistics telling us that one in three people will buy a stolen car, when you go to purchase a vehicle, ask the seller if you can see a form of ID such as a water bill. If their name tallies with the registered keeper documents then you will have no need to worry.
