Where is the largest used car market in Shanghai?
2 Answers
The largest used car market in Shanghai is the Shanghai Used Motor Vehicle Trading Market. The address is No. 2907, Zhongshan North Road, Putuo District, Shanghai (near Wuning Road). Here are some precautions when buying a used car: 1. Pay attention to the appearance: Some used cars have been in accidents. To increase the value of these used cars, dealers may refurbish them, repaint them to make them look newer. So when buying a car, pay attention to the appearance, observe all corners of the car and whether the parts have been repainted, and check if there are signs of wear on the tires, headlights, and bumpers. 2. Pay attention to the chassis and frame: After a car has been in an accident, even if the exterior is well repaired, its frame and chassis are difficult to restore. If you find any deformation or bending, be careful, as this car may be an accident vehicle. 3. Pay attention to the car's performance: When selecting a used car, tap the body to listen if the sound is normal, and start the car to listen if the engine sound is normal.
As a car enthusiast who frequents the used car market, I believe the largest used car market in Shanghai is the Anting Used Car Trading Center. The scale is truly astonishing—when I visited, the garages and exhibition areas were densely packed, covering almost all mainstream brands, with an extremely high transaction volume. The transportation is very convenient; just take Metro Line 11 to Anting Station, and it's right there. If driving, there's also a large free parking lot. My car-buying experience tells me why this place is so big: it gathers vehicles from various sources, including private transfers and 4S store trade-ins, offering great value for money. I once found an older-model Passat there, with transparent condition and no scams. But a word of caution—don’t be fooled by appearances. Always hire a professional inspection service to check the chassis and engine to avoid buying a flood-damaged or accident car. Overall, the Anting market is the top choice, with comprehensive services and peace of mind.
