1 Answers
The documents required for a used car transaction include: original and photocopies of the buyer's and seller's ID cards, vehicle registration certificate, vehicle license, and used car transaction invoice. Below are the precautions to take when purchasing a used car: Pay attention to the car's performance: Avoid buying a car with poor performance. When selecting a used car, pay attention to knocking on the body to listen for any abnormal sounds, and start the car to check if the engine sounds normal. Check the chassis and frame: Do not purchase if deformation is found. After an accident, even if the car's exterior is well-repaired, its frame and chassis are difficult to restore, indicating it might be an accident car. Inspect the appearance: Observe all corners and parts of the car for repainting. Some used cars have been in accidents, and to increase their value, dealers may refurbish and repaint them to make them look newer. So check for wear on the tires, headlights, and bumper. Ensure all purchase procedures are complete: Documentation is crucial when buying a used car. Generally, this includes the registration certificate, license, purchase tax, and other fees, proving the car is problem-free with complete procedures. Always test-drive before buying: Whether buying a new or used car, always test-drive. Only through a test drive can you determine if the car suits you and identify any issues during the process.
