Who doesn’t have a dream car on their wish list? But to get to it, we have to get several others out of the way first. At some point, we decide to sell our car, for a variety of reasons – to buy a new one, for the money or if we’re shifting base. I had put a lot of thought when I made a decision to sell my car, so as to get the maximum possible value for it. Before I decided to sell my car, I did a thorough study of the used car market. I checked up on what is the value being offered for my car, what is the demand for my type of car, where should I go to get good deals, etc. I found out that family sedans are usually most popular, while the demand of SUVs usually remains steady. Sports cars are usually bought by very particular buyers. I got a fair idea by browsing classified ads online and in newspapers. Once I got an idea of how much I could get by selling my car, I decided to take advantage of competitive pricing. This way I could fix a price taking into consideration the mileage of my engine, make of the car, its appearance, features and condition. Of course, I left enough room for negotiation, as more often than not, buyers like to haggle their way out. But I was careful not to raise the price too high that buyers get tuned out altogether. When it came to selling my car, I knew I had to make it look as good as a bride does on her wedding day! This is because the outer appearance is the first thing people will notice when they come and see a car. I got it washed, cleaned and waxed, and used spray-on car paints to hide a few scratches. Some minor repairs also needed to be done, so I let my mechanic take care of them. I also made sure that the interior of my car, including the boot, was clear of all my stuff. A vacuum cleaner is best to suck out the dust bunnies that were there and I put some car perfume to have it smelling fresh. I also gave the foot mats, seats and windows a good cleaning. This is important as buyers want to take the car for a test drive before buying it. I also found out that I could go to a car salvage dealer and salvage my car. If my car was in a condition that couldn’t be repaired, that’s what I would have done for sure! This way I can get rid of the old car and get money for its parts as well! It’s really simple at www.sellusyourcar.co.uk. All I need to do is give them my old car’s details and wait for their call. If I’m satisfied with their quote, I can sell my car to them and that’s it! Car salvage is a wonderful way to earn money off your rotting vehicle. I will definitely try it next time!
