When it comes to buying a quality used car, your friend might seem like a great place to turn. But buyer beware: Here are 3 problems of buying your friend’s used car.
No Vehicle Report
If you don’t know where a car’s been or what’s happened to it, you run the risk of driving away with a lemon. Just because you don’t see damage doesn’t mean it isn’t there. That’s why a vehicle report is so important. (Your friend may not offer one, but every quality used car at The Auto Connection comes with a FREE AutoCheck report.)
Harder to Get Financing
Buying a used vehicle through a friend can mean difficulty in finding financing, especially if you have bad credit.
At The Auto Connection, we’ve been putting drivers in the driver’s seat for over 20 years, regardless of their credit history. Our Buy Here Pay Here program makes picking out and financing your quality used vehicle a breeze.
No Mechanical Inspection
When you look at a used vehicle from a friend, chances are it hasn’t been inspected by a professional mechanic. You could get it inspected, but you’d have to pay for it (and it won’t be cheap).
