At EVS Auto Group<\/a>, we regularly meet with buyers who would seem to be novices in the automotive marketplace. They have more questions than answers, and they might not even know which questions to ask. So how can we work to give buyers a more thorough understanding of the process? A good place to start is to identify and eliminate common car-buying mistakes, many of which are tricky to navigate.<\/span><\/p>\n

Common Mistakes when Buying a Used Car<\/h2>\n

Not Requesting a Vehicle History Report<\/h3>\n

Right off the bat, let\u2019s get this out of the way: all used vehicles from EVS Auto come with their own CARFAX Vehicle History Report, and they often tell a more well-rounded tale of where a car\u2019s been than the simple eye test. It will have history of any accidents the car has been involved in, flood damage, or even an odometer rollback. A purchase made without a vehicle history report is a real roll of the dice.<\/p>\n

\"FamilyBasing a Buying Decision on Monthly Payments<\/h3>\n

Many dealerships will advertise a low monthly price that might be spread over a longer duration of time, and buyers are essentially duped into paying more than what a vehicle is worth. At EVS Auto Group, we present the total price before looking into monthly payments, thus providing buyers with a more specific understanding of what they\u2019re getting themselves into.

Not Taking a Thorough Test Drive<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s easy to fall in love with a car from the first turn of the key, and we don\u2019t necessarily disagree with that assertion. However, it\u2019s hard to fully understand a vehicle\u2019s shortcomings without driving a car for at least a half hour. If there are issues with comfort or visibility, they might not appear at first glance.<\/p>\n

Buying Things You Don\u2019t Need<\/h3>\n

Sometimes a buyer will get stars in their eyes as they look at a vehicle\u2019s options, and might end up adding options that they simply don\u2019t need. You may find that the more options are added, the less viable the purchase becomes. At EVS Auto, we won\u2019t push options on you that might make an affordable vehicle less appealing.
