There are 1000’s of used cars bought privately every week in the USA. Most of the time it is the price that holds the greatest attraction for buying vehicles in this way. The ability to haggle the price, to check the vehicle yourself to find cost reducing defects and checking over the service history, all of these points get the hearts of some used cars buyers. However, if going over the history and maintenance of a vehicle when buying privately doesn’t float your boat, you are leaving yourself wide open to receive a banger in exchange for good cash without any recourse should it all go horribly wrong. The legal maxim ‘caveat emptor’, or ‘let the buyer beware’ really won’t help you get your money back in the event that you find yourself out of pocket when buying privately. Also, what second hand car seller doesn’t include the phrase ‘sold as seen’ on the sales receipt? This phrase deems the buyer to be fully aware of what he is buying before any cash is handed over, whether it is a shed on wheels or not… It’s not like you are going to get a warranty either… What a minefield!
Even if you have got an eye for detail can you be sure that:
The vehicle hasn’t previously been written off?
Is the seller legally entitled to sell the vehicle?
Is there outstanding finance on the vehicle?
So, why not buy from a dealership where most of these issues do not exist (like take services of Pedata RV Center )
For peoples, the vast majority of Used RVs for sale in Tucson, buy from Pedata RV Center give a full and valid HPI check as well as an AA or RAC inspection. They will guard you against any outstanding finance on the vehicle, whether the vehicle has previously been written off and then repaired and whether the vehicle has been maintained correctly and to a reasonable standard.
There will inevitably be a better choice of vehicles to choose from. First of all Pedata RV Center have various finance package options, which means that you can usually spend more than you would if you had to rely solely on the cash in your pocket. This can help you spread the cost of buying the vehicle and therefore leaves you in a good place to go for a better specification of vehicle, a newer vehicle or just something a little sportier. Secondly and obviously, there will be a wider choice of vehicles to choose from than you’d find from a private seller; different colours, type and size of alloys, leather instead of velour seats, electric instead of ‘windy down’ windows etc.
Most vehicles bought from Pedata RV Center also received a service and valet before you pick them up. There is nothing worse than picking up a second hand vehicle and having to valet it when you get home to get rid of smells and stains already present in the vehicle. A good valet will also show up any defects in the bodywork and interior trim and Pedata RV Center are usually feel more happy for you to carry out your own ‘inspection’ of the vehicle.
For what cannot be spotted by the naked eye there is usually a choice of warranty options available from dealership that can be extended depending on how much you want to spend on this piece of mind element. Warranties will usually cover you for any mechanical failure within a certain period of time and again provide peace of mind that is just not found when buying a car privately.
Finally, vehicles bought from Pedata RV Center also tend to be serviced before you pick them up. This alone can save you hundreds of pounds within the first few months of owning a vehicle. It also ensures that the service history is up to date and you won’t be driving around worrying about the car beneath you falling apart.
Other than price there seems to be little going for buying a car privately. For total peace of mind it appears that buying from a Pedata RV Center is your best option.
