Buying a car may seem a fancy thing. But in the end its a car, not a matchbox.
Today's episode is about what to do and what not to do while buying a car.
1) Whats your budget ?
How much are you willing to spend on your car ? 6 lakhs or 15 lakhs? In a country where money matters much, intricate planning of the amount you need to spend is the most important thing to do. It is unlikely not to mention that even running costs (i.e. maintenance, fuel consumption etc.) and loan offers also are a part of the post buying budget.
2) What do you need in your car ?
Wife says it should have an entertainment system. Kids say that it should have an armrest at the rear. List all the utility features you need in your wheel.
Alert- Brain will always stick to budget and heart will always stick to features. So plan and balance wisely.
3) Listen but don't be influenced
Car salesmen will always try to convince you to go for the high end variant and thus burning a larger hole in your pocket no matter they guide you about the car. Always think wisely according to what you feel right.
4) Take a test drive
Never hesitate to feel what its like to be in that car. Dealers will never hesitate always welcome you to the test drive feeling. Test it like you own it.
5) Take your time

What's the USP? Should I buy this or that ?In the end, choose wisely.
6) Try avoiding what's after-market?
An after sales advice. Always try to go for spares, accessories and services given by the company due to duplicate products increasing in the market. However if too expensive, after market option is to be taken if the dealer is a reputed one.
