Have you decided to sell your car? This can be done at an attractive price if the car is in good technical condition. In addition, by taking some steps, you will significantly increase the value of your vehicle.
We clean up the salon
When choosing a used car, a buyer carefully evaluates its merits and identifies disadvantages. If you own a popular model car, it is quite easy to sell it. The situation with exotic models is much more complicated. They are taken reluctantly. The point is in possible problems during repairs and difficulties in purchasing spare parts.
As a rule, the buyer wants to inspect the car at a service station. If you followed the technical condition of the car, then you should not worry about the inspection. If the machine has been operated in difficult conditions, it is better to make repairs before selling.
Pay attention to the condition of the car body. If the anti-corrosion treatment of hollow cavities, underbody and wheel arches is done, it will make the car more attractive in the eyes of the buyer. Wash the car, pay attention to the chrome parts. Take the car to the car wash. This will remove the dirt more thoroughly.
Tidy up the car interior. If the car is in good technical condition, but the interior is dirty, it will scare off buyers. Remove stains from carpets and seats. Get rid of unpleasant odors in the cabin. Can't tidy up the salon yourself? Dry cleaning of the salon will help.
Inspection of the engine, battery and shock absorbers
Pay attention to the condition of the rims. They should not be rusty or wrinkled. If we talk about tires, then they should have uniform wear. Many people hang the car with antennas, lights, do moldings and tinting. Please note that this does not add value to the car. But a good alarm, high-quality covers, a radio tape recorder make it possible to slightly raise the price.
Let's talk about preparing the engine. Adjust it, fill with good oil. If you drive your car carefully, the clutch, engine and suspension will be in good condition. Test the shock absorbers by pushing the machine sideways. It shouldn't wobble. If the car rocks, replace the shock absorbers. Make sure that there are no drips of operating fluids and oil. Buyers won't like it.
Examine the battery. There should be no oxides on the terminals. The electrolyte at the required level and the clean surface of the battery will convince the buyer that you not only drove the car, but also took care of it. Remember that the impression of a car is made of little things. Keep an eye on the car, then you can sell it at a good price.
