Many people dream of buying a car. For new car, some people prefer SUV, some people prefer sedan or hatchback. But whichever car you go for, you need to make special preparations. Many times it is seen that in order to increase the sales of a particular car, the dealer in the showroom presents more than one information about the car to the buyers. In many cases the vehicle may not be durable for a long time. So get ready from home before choosing a car.
1. What are the offers on the car?
Many times manufacturers offer multiple offers on cars. Discounts are offered on behalf of various showrooms to attract buyers. These offers are usually offered during the festive season. Buyers are not aware of all these offers. As a result, the opportunity to save a lot of money is missed. So while buying a new car check if there is any specific offer or discount on it.
2. How is the car warranty?
Currently most companies offer warranty based on kilometers or years. If you feel that the standard warranty on the vehicle you have selected is too short, the option to extend the warranty is offered. Having a car under warranty offers multiple benefits such as quick rectification of mechanical faults, better re-sale value and above all peace of mind enjoying the new car.
3. How is the warranty covered?
Many customers avoid this issue. Check how many years or how many kilometers you will get the warranty but also need to know what will be covered under the said warranty. In many cases, when you go to a workshop to fix a mechanical fault or damage after the car is under warranty, the company says that the fault or damage is not covered by the warranty. So when buying a new car make sure what is covered under its warranty.
4. How is the mileage and safety of the car
Be sure to ask these two questions about car performance. The newer and more advanced the car engine, the better the fuel efficiency. A higher vehicle mileage will directly reduce your oil consumption. Apart from the mileage, check the safety of the car like how many airbags it has, braking system etc. Make sure that the vehicle is manufactured in compliance with all government regulations.
5. Is the car a showroom model?
Dealers show a demo model to customers when the market demand is high especially during the festive season. But when it is delivered, it is seen that the car is full of stains. There are small dents. So check the car in advance when taking delivery. The dealership may also be at fault. So bring the car home only after being sure about that.
