If you’ve always bought new cars or got leases, then the
experience of buying a pre-owned car will be alien to you. You might get
disturbing impressions in your mind of the greasy (and crafty) used car
salesman, fine tuning the wrecks on his lot so they’ll last just long enough
for you to drive home, but then die on you. We understand your hesitation, but
if this is what you think, you’re not only wrong, but missing out on a world of
advantages to be had by opting for a used car instead of brand new. Let’s look
at some of these benefits.
1. Financial Savings
Yes, this one is obvious. The sticker prices on used cars
are always going to be lower than new cars, but there’s more to it than that.
New cars may dazzle you, and even intoxicate you with that heavenly interior
smell, but did you know that as soon as those wheels exit the lot and hit the
open road, the value of that vehicle massively depreciates. Modern cars are not
like properties. You don’t buy one as an investment and sell for profit. They
are a constant loss. Why not save yourself the money and go for a used car?
2. Insurance
Along with the sticker price and depreciation
considerations, you’ll also have to think about insurance. It’s a must for all
drivers, and the truth is that your premiums on a used model will always be
lower than anything brand new. Just think what you can do with all the savings!
3. Greater choice
Opening the door of the used car market means many more
choices than if you limit yourself to what’s newest on the stage. You can shop
around more for something that not only fits your ideal budget, but also your
exact needs. When you’re limited to the new stuff, you may have to make some
compromises here and there. With pre-owned cars, it’s not a problem. Anything
you need, it’s out there.
4. High-Tech Wizardry
Many features of cars that you only ever used to associate
with the newest models are now standard features in a lot of models covering
the past several years. This isn’t limited to infotainment and touchscreen
displays, it also includes safety features like collision alerts, and driver
assistance like park assist or adaptive cruise control. The traditional image
of the “old banger” of a used car is a thing of the past.
5. The Benefits of the Information Age
Greater public scrutiny, awareness and information sharing
have pushed dealerships to maintain impeccably high standards not only for
their new models, but their used ones, too. Thanks to this relentless Internet
surveillance, you can be quite sure that you’ll have little trouble finding
reputable dealerships offering great deals on top-quality used vehicles.
So, shake off your old ideas about used cars and start
exploring this exciting market today. You might just find the car of your
dreams in a place you never expected.
