Three tips for negotiating a used car
ADVERTISEMENT

That’s it, after months of research, you’ve finally found the car of your dreams, with the perfect setup and the perfect engine. In short, there is no question of letting it slip away. Problem, the price exceeds the budget you had set. Fortunately, whether you go through an individual or a professional, there are a few tips that will help youget discount more or less important. But to be able to skillfully negotiate the amount of a car, you don’t have to do anything. Discover our three tips to lower the price of a used vehicle (almost) for sure!

Don’t show you’re in a hurry

First and foremost, never suggest that you absolutely need that particular car. On the contrary, make sure you show the seller that you could definitely find a similar vehicle elsewhere for less, even if it’s the one in front of you that you want at all costs. By pretending to be playing the competition in this way, you will then make the person in front of you be more inclined to give you a small discount. Be careful, however, not to overdo it, at the risk of seeming genuinely uninterested. The seller will then not want to make the effort, thinking that you ultimately do not want to buy the car. It would be a shame !

Look for the little flaws

It’s a great classic, but it works almost every time. When you go to see a Used VehicleWhether sold by a private or a professional, always examine it carefully and look for the smallest flaw. Whether it’s a pretty deep scratch, a dent in the body or any other small hitch, these will come in handy during your negotiation. Watch out for corrosion, especially on the sills, but also on damaged seats inside. Also check the correct operation of the air conditioning or the car radio, because otherwise, this will also serve as an argument to negotiate a more or less important discount. If you buy your car in concession, be extra vigilant, because sellers tend to prepare the latter well to hide any faults.

Choose the right period

This advice is especially valid if you are planning to buy a car at a dealership. Besides the open days, often accompanied by various and varied promotions, three months in the year are also conducive to discounts. These are August, September and January, according to UFC-Que Choisir. Indeed, during the first two, sales are generally lower, and sellers therefore tend to push to buy by giving some discounts. In January, ” it is the period of balance sheets and provisional calendars for the coming year », And so it is the final stretch for the sales advisers, who must then fulfill their objectives by selling more vehicles. In addition, the magazine advises to be vigilant during the periods of discounts on various equipment, so as not to be trapped by a salesman who would like you to pass them off as a commercial gesture.
