Is it acceptable to purchase a car that has been in stock for six months?
1 Answers
Normally, a car that has been in stock for more than six months is considered an inventory vehicle. If the car's condition is satisfactory, it can be purchased. Here are the details: 1. Inventory vehicles: These refer to cars that remain unsold for over a year. As a commodity, inventory vehicles occupy significant space, are expensive, and incur high storage costs. They also tie up substantial dealer capital, so dealers typically avoid prolonged inventory periods. However, due to various reasons, many cars older than a year remain on the market. 2. Precautions: (1) Check rubber components for signs of aging, focusing on the wipers, engine belts, and tires. (2) Inspect the battery for issues. Modern batteries often have a green light indicating normal status and a gray light for abnormal status. You can test the battery by turning on high beams or other high-power electrical devices for about 10 minutes with the engine off. (3) Start the engine and check for any abnormal operation.
