With the market of new cars seeing a steady climb down, these dealers
increasingly try to make up their profits through this segment. The advantages
on offer are that they are thoroughly inspected; give a larger choice, and also
service and maintenance warranties. You can insist on confirmation to tax and
pollution laws. The condition of these used cars is generally better than those
offered by others.
Manufacturers' certified programs have taken much of the risk out of used car
shopping by offering excellent warranties on refurbished used vehicles. Only
certain vehicles qualify for certification. Typically, the used car must be
under five years old and have less than 50,000 kilometers on the odometer.
Manufacturers vary in how many points of the vehicles are reconditioned, but
most put the used car through a complete check of all major systems.

The condition of the used cars offered
by these dealers is a shade worse because they operate on low profit margins.
Most of these used cars are in bad shape, with shady workmanship to gloss over the
defects. Never buy these until your mechanic vouches for their veracity. |

There is always a high risk but
potentially cheaper. The vehicles may appear in great shape, but unless you are
a very knowledgeable auto mechanic, you may be purchasing someone else's
damaged goods without knowing it. Used Car auction may have been previously damaged
in an accident or reconditioned, but the parts used are often substandard and
the work less-than-perfect. |
