For their convenience, almost everyone wants to have their vehicle. Some like to buy a bike-scooter and some like a car, but everyone knows how much money is required for a new vehicle in today's time. Forget about the car, now even for a bike-scooty one has to spend lakhs of rupees. That's why many people prefer to buy an old vehicle instead of a new one. This saves them a lot of money, but during this time you should take special care of some things. If you make some mistakes while buying an old vehicle, then believe me you can only regret later and you may also spend a lot of money. So let's know what things you should keep in mind while buying an old vehicle. You can know more about this further...
Don't make these mistakes while buying a used car:-
Number 1
If you are buying an old vehicle, try not to go alone. You can take a mechanic with you because they have knowledge of the engine of the vehicle and after looking at the vehicle, they can tell you whether you should buy it or not. If there is any defect in the vehicle, you may face problems in the future. So, get it checked by a mechanic.
Number 2
If you are buying an old car, don't just look at the car. Rather, check the papers of the car. See if the rest of the papers like RC, POC, and insurance are there or not. If there is any problem with the papers of the car, then avoid buying such a car. Otherwise, you may face problems later on.
Number 3
While buying a car, keep one more thing in mind and that is that you have to check whether the car you are buying has any challan on it. If there is, then ask the car owner to fill it. Also, get a letter made in which it should be written with the date that now you are buying this car and the previous challan will be of the car owner and the new challan will be yours.
Number 4
Now that you have liked the car, the papers are all right, etc., then you must check the engine oil in the car before bringing it to your place. Many times the car is parked for a long time and it is not even serviced. In such a situation, if there is no engine oil in it and you drive the car, then the engine of the car may even seize.
