If you want to keep the car running for another 2 years, refurbishment becomes necessary. The longer a car is driven, the more wrinkles appear in the interior, along with stains that are difficult to clean. This can make it obvious at a glance that the car has been used for a long time. Additional Information: Areas to clean on the body: Pay attention to detailed parts of the car body, such as the wheel rims, bumpers, mudguards, spoilers, plastic decorative panels, exhaust pipes, and other exterior details. Benefits: Extends the car's lifespan. Refurbishing certain parts can prolong their usability. You might also consider applying a color-changing wrap, the simplest refurbishment option, or opting for a full-body repaint.

What Does 'Bao Ti Dang' Mean?

'Bao Ti Dang' refers to the service of helping car owners retrieve their vehicle files from the vehicle management office and hand them over to the owner. This usually occurs in the buying and selling of used cars. Below are some precautions for used car transactions: 1. Check for Violation Records: It is recommended that both the buyer and seller check for any violation records before processing the transfer. The method is simple: log in to the local traffic management bureau website or the relevant vehicle management office website, enter the license plate number, and if there are any violation records, pay the fines promptly to avoid inconvenience for both parties. Special attention should be paid to violations in other regions, as the processing time for out-of-town violations is longer than for local ones. 2. Verify Normal Annual Inspection: Check the supplementary page of the vehicle license (driving license) to confirm whether the vehicle has undergone its annual inspection. Without an annual inspection, the transfer process cannot be completed. 3. Check the Tail Emission Compliance Certificate: If this is missing, not only will it need to be reissued during the next inspection, but fines may also be imposed, causing losses to the buyer. 4. Process Insurance Renaming: After the vehicle transfer, it is essential to promptly rename the insurance. Otherwise, disputes may arise with the insurance company in case of an accident. 5. Sign a Standardized Transaction Contract: Due to the numerous details involved in used car transactions, many aspects may not be fully considered. To protect the legal rights of both parties, it is advisable to sign a standardized transaction contract issued by the industrial and commercial administration. 6. Verify Seller’s Documents: When purchasing a car, carefully check the seller’s ID, original vehicle invoice, vehicle purchase tax certificate, vehicle license, road maintenance fee certificate, annual inspection certificate, and insurance policy. If any documents are missing, it may cause significant inconvenience when processing related procedures after the purchase.
