Some people sell the car with problems and obviously don't tell you till you find out afterwards, but some people sell the car because it doesn't fit their lifestyle anymore (like having a car when they need a truck, having a sports car with a large family who needs a van etc.)

These people are so jaded, it's pathetic. Many used cars come off lease, and people baby the hell out of them coz they're afraid they'll be charged for every little scratch, ding or dent...let alone any mechanical problem. Other cars are fleet cars from companies with big sales forces etc. They have a department that makes sure the cars are properly maintained (in case they had a warranty issue), and they get rid of them after a year or two while their value is still high. Others, like a lady I know, have a relative that dies or gets too old to drive, etc. So they sell the car to get $$ and stop paying insurance on it.
Some people trade in cars that aren't running right, but many cars are fine. Use due diligence and have a mechanic check out any prospective purchase, but remember that he makes his living by fixing stuff, so he'll usually come up with SOMETHING, no matter how straight the car is.

Ohhh I believe. One car one history. When we buy a car, we live good and bad moments with him. We go in good an bad places with him. When you buy a used car you are buying a history of this person, but unfortunately I don't know why but everytime you are buying a used car, the history of that person never is good and comes too.

Yes, you can buy other peoples problems, that is why it is best to get the car assessed by a machanic, in New Zealand we have an organisation called the Automobile Association who give the vehicle a thorough check over 4 a fee. there are some sharks out there at car yards who think they can get away with it and will.

There are always problems w/ used stuff.
But you can do enough planning to minimize that.
First, search online for that model and look for common problems, malfunctions, complaints. This should give you a general idea when doing a test drive.
After the test drive, if you feel good about it, then do an inspection with shop that you can TRUST.
Also pay a fee for background check online.

If you buy a new car it is consider used the next day. Would you buy it from yourself? Would you be buying your own problems?

MOST DEFINETLY!!! There is always a reason the previous owner chose to replace it
2007-04-01 2:33 am

I have bought many used cars. Who the heck can afford a new one? And why waste money on a thing that depreciates in value 10 minutes after you buy it?
I have never had any trouble with used cars. I have bought them from dealers and private owners, and both have been fine. When buying from a private owner I take the car to a mechanic and have it checked out before buying it. Well worth the trouble for the piece of mind. And remember this, dont expect to get a perfect car if you only want to pay 2000. or so. You may have to get new tires or replace some part but just make sure the major parts are working. You still save lots of money in the long run.
I think it is very financially smart to buy used cars. You are not getting someone elses problems if you are careful, but you are letting someone else throw their money out the window on the car when it was new.
I usually always buy Toyotas and they last me for well over 200K miles with very few repairs. Good luck.

somewhat, but if you buy a foreign car (preferably japanese) you will have less problems

If all used cars were problem vehicles we would need a lot more workshops and mechanics.
Some people trade out of boredom, style change or change in their needs.
It used to be said the best car would be a used car on the lot of it's original dealer. That's based on the theory, if you have a problem with a car you wouldn't go back to the same manufacturer.
If you deal with a private dealer, insure promised fixes are done before transfer. Once the money changes hands you may find a different attitude.
It's best if you have a trusted mechanic to check it out for you before purchase.

yes it has an invisible effect on buyer's life ( good or bad)
2007-03-31 1:59 pm
not really because if you buy a used car from a good place they fix it
2007-03-31 12:37 pm
This sometimes happens, and it might be that something will go wrong and people will blame the other person rather than admit that sometimes things just happen. I have seen used cars in which everything seems to go wrong, but most of the time things are just fine. There are also new cars that seem to be 'lemons'. Part of the job of buying used is to have things checked out before you pay
2007-03-31 11:50 am
no used cars are used cars you get a better value but buying used it could be any thing repo trade after three year etc etc most dealears inspect their cars before they buy them and you have that right to just don't be pressured in to buying take it to you shop first.. they will tell you

Yes, I have always bought brand new cars and have traded them only because of problems and would cost me more to fix the problem than the car was worth.
2007-03-31 10:57 am
Not all used cars are problems a lot are lease cars or cars people just don't like after a while. I see people trying to trade after 6 months. All I buy are used cars anymore so I can save money. I check the service on them and have a mechanic check it out. I don't buy from the little 6 cars on the lot dealers.

2007-04-01 2:49 am
Ummm. . .no..
2007-03-31 10:53 am
Absolutely. That's why they're selling it in the first place.

Yep!
