Buying and selling a car

When it comes to buying a car, the choice can be overwhelming and the potential pitfalls more than off putting. One thing’s for sure you want to be certain you end up with your dream wheels and not a raw deal.

Equally, when you’re looking at selling your car, you want the sale to be hassle-free and no doubt you’ll want to get the best price you possibly can. To make sure this happens, it really pays to know exactly how to go about it.

This guide looks at all the different aspects of buying and selling, from whether to buy new or used, to where and how to buy or sell. We take you beyond the purchase process to looking at what you need to consider once you’ve got your new car keys in hand.

You can read the guide from cover to cover, or you can simply dip into specific sections. We’ve even included a handy checklist for both inspecting a car and how to test drive a car for you to print off and take with you when you start viewing.
