Efficiently purchasing a used car in good condition does not have to be difficult. You can save a large part of your time and financial resources already at the stage of a telephone conversation with the owner in lahore..

For many people - especially those who are less interested in motoring - a telephone conversation with the buy and sell car in lahore owner seems to be just a formality before arriving for a personal inspection of the vehicle. After all, only on the spot can you find out things that you wouldn't know otherwise, right?

Not at all! A well-conducted conversation will allow you to build a true picture of the seller,  You just need to know what to ask to save yourself a lot of nerves, time and money that would be spent on unnecessary trips.

If a car catches your attention while browsing the classifieds, check a few things yourself before you pick up the phone.

You can also enter the seller's phone number into an internet search engine. If he is a dealer and sells many cars in lahore - you will know it immediately.
Think about what information is missing in the cars description. Perhaps specific data was not completed because there was no space for it in the form, but it is also possible that the seller wanted to hide some fact.

IS THE CAR REGISTERED IN PAKISTAN?

A simple question that will immediately tell you a lot about the seller and the car in lahore.. Find out what additional costs will apply to registration and other fees. Also determine who the seller of the car will be on the purchase and sale agreement in lahore. Be sure that you are not taking part in the so-called "Pakistan selling". We have already written about the potentially disastrous consequences of this number for several hundred in savings on the Carfame website.

HOW LONG DID THE OWNER DRIVE THIS CAR in lahore?

The answer to this question also says a lot about the car and its seller in lahore. You will find out whether the seller was actually the user of the car and drove it, or whether he is a dealer. If it turns out that he actually drove it, but did not cover a significant distance for a short time or for a long time, ask about the reasons for this. If it's an older, higher-end car, it may be due to some expensive fault or generally high maintenance costs that have overwhelmed the owner.

HOW MANY PREVIOUS OWNERS WERE THERE?

The fewer the better. A smaller number of owners means a greater chance of learning about the car's past and suggests that it was liked by users. This brings us to the next most important question.

WHAT IS THE TECHNICAL CONDITION OF THE CAR? WHAT IS ITS STORY?

It is known that "well, it's okay" and "just like in the photos". Therefore, try to ask more specific questions. What were the last repairs performed on the car in lahore? When was the timing, oil and filters, spark plugs and V-belt replaced? Compare this with the information from our guides on how often these elements should be replaced in a given model.

Ask if there are receipts confirming the car's service history.  Was there documentation certifying the repairs performed and the mileage of the car? What didn't the owner fix? Does the car have any problems? What will you need to do after the purchase? What condition are the tires in?

Do the parts of the equipment that most often cause problems work, such as air conditioning, electric windows, sunroof, and folding roof in convertibles? Remember that only specific answers count: yes or no. Treat any answer other than "yes" as "no".

Expect and appreciate honesty. Say that you know that a several-year-old car with 6-digit mileage will not be in perfect condition and that you expect that you will have to make additional investments. Let them know that you would prefer to learn about such things now from the seller rather than obtain inconvenient information in another way. Assurances that nothing has been done in recent years because there was no need for it mean the seller's lack of competence or honesty rather than the good condition of the car.

It is very important to ask whether the car has been involved in an accident , collision or collision. Different people may understand different things under these terms, so ask for a detailed description of the incident.

WHAT ENGINE OIL DOES THE CAR CURRENTLY USE?

Contrary to appearances, this is also an important question with subtext. Nowadays, the vast majority of cars, according to the manufacturer's recommendations, should run on synthetic oil, regardless of mileage. If the owner pours "semi-synthetic" or mineral oil, firstly, he is not doing the car any favors, and secondly, he may still be convinced from 20 years ago that it is worth pouring oil with a higher density because it prevents leaks. This, in turn, leads to another question: do oil leaks occur and, if so, why?

WILL I BE ABLE TO HAVE MY CAR CHECKED AT THE WORKSHOP OF MY CHOICE?

If the seller is honest and really knows the subject of the advertisement, he should not have a problem with it. After all, this is an expense of several dozen thousand zlotys, so you have the right to do everything to be sure about the car you are buying.

WILL WE BE ABLE TO CHECK THE CAR AT THE POLICE STATION?
The point is to check whether the car is stolen or has any obligations towards third parties, for example whether it is encumbered with a lien. Checking such things at the police station requires a personal visit along with the car being checked, but the examination itself is limited to entering the VIN number into the computer by the officer, so the visit only takes a few minutes.

WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE CAR?

This question can be treated as an introduction to negotiations. Does the owner add a second set of tires for winter or summer? Does the car have the necessary elements such as a fire extinguisher, first aid kit, jack, spare bulbs, or will you have to buy them yourself? Is the unit equipped with a radio or another element desired by the buyer? All this affects the amount you are willing to spend.

HOW MUCH IS THE SELLER WILLING TO REDUCE THE PRICE?

Let's get down to business. No one has ever lost by haggling, and many have gained. And in this case, do not lose vigilance. Large concessions from the seller may mean that for some reason he wants to get rid of the car quickly.

Treat the above questions as a form of filtering advertisements, not as a final verification of the best car valuation. That's what the inspection is for. Before arriving at the meeting, do not forget to agree on the form of settlement with the owner .
