Why Buy Vehicles From Police Auctions Over Car Dealerships?
07.30
| Used Dozers | |
Are you aware that you will be allowed to attend many of the government and police auctions in your area? The police seize thousands of cars and other vehicles every month all across the country due to several different reasons. These vehicles are offered for much lower prices than you would generally pay by going through a car dealership. Obviously, police auctions are a secret that car dealerships don’t want you to know about. This is because not only is there one less potential customer looking to purchase a vehicle but there is also another bidder competing against him for the cars that are being auctioned. So why does 90% of the general public buy from car dealerships? Well that’s a good question and I think it comes down to education. People are simply not aware or these government and police vehicle auctions. The government would be ridiculed is they spent money on advertising. Here is a list of advantages and disadvantages in buying at these auctions: Advantages: - They’re offered at much lower prices than anywhere else - No matter where you live, there are typically many auctions held around your area - Information regarding government and police auctions with vehicle listing detail is now available on the web - There is usually a wide selection of vehicles that can be found at government auctions – sports cars, SUV’s, pick up trucks, motorcycles, jeeps, etc. - no distribution channel (car dealership) to go through or to pay - No commissioned salesperson to have to deal with - Motivated seller who doesn’t have the resources or time to deal with inventory, therefore offering vehicles based on no reserve bidding - Possible advantages to income taxes (establish a business name) - Usually pay less car taxes - Start your own business (i.e. Sell cars on the Internet) Disadvantages: - You’ll probably have to pay it all in cash (which for some is a blessing) - No extended warranty beyond what the manufacturer offers. Most used dealerships give only 30 days So if you don’t mind paying cash, or have access to credit, then it’s obvious that the pros far out-weigh the cons in favour of government and police auctions. Just as with a used car dealership it is a good idea to bring someone with you who can inspect and determine the vehicles condition.

What is a Certified Used Car?
04.24
| Used Dozers | |
For many people, certified pre-owned cars are an attractive option to buying an expensive new car. For less money, you can get a quality car that is almost brand new. Certified pre-owned (CPO) cars are generally late-model, low-mileage used cars that have passed a certain degree of inspection. These vehicles have been thoroughly examined by a mechanic that have repaired anything that is wrong with the vehicle. CPO cars usually come with a factory warranty or service contract. Unlike other used cars, CPO cars are regularly maintained facts that can be verified independently with a vehicle-tracking service. This makes them a very good alternative to new models with high prices. Many vehicles branded as CPOs were leased rather than sold. Because of this fact, it means they have been better cared for by customers to avoid additional charges for wear and tear. This eventually became a popular way for manufacturers to sell low-mileage cars when they were returned by their lessor. If you decide that you are going to purchase a certified pre-owned car, make sure that you’re getting your moneys worth first. Make sure you check out everything that the manufacturer has to offer. Aside from the standard warranty, a lot of CPO vehicles come with the option to return the vehicle if it doesn’t meet your standards. This all, of course, varies greatly among dealers so make sure you read the contract carefully. Look around and compare all of the different polices. This way, your will guarantee yourself to finding the best possible deal. For instance, Lexus, a pioneer of CPO programs, has a three-year, 100,000-total-vehicle-mile limited warranty to its all of it’s CPO cars. This is not the same with Chrysler, though. While it carries an inspection and a return policy, its CPO cars only have a three-month, 3,000-mile limited warranty and an 80,000-total-vehicle-mile drive train-only warranty.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Buying Used Cars

Deciding on buying a used car can seem like a huge decision. Buying a used vehicle often offers the best dollar value to the consumer, but with it can come many issues and problems. Many people feel that by purchasing a used car they are setting themselves up for a lifetime of sitting in the local garage and having a depleted bank account. All this can be true, but with a bit of research and careful consideration mixed with common sense, a good used car can be the perfect answer to all your vehicle needs. You just need to take time and balance the pros and cons of each vehicle you are considering. A used vehicle offers a long list of advantages over trying to obtain a new one. Costs of expenses like insurance, taxes, better vehicle options, as well as the obvious lower price, are all bonuses on the side of the consumer. Also, compared to new vehicles, it is easy to research the history of the vehicle and learn about any mechanical issues it may have as opposed to a new vehicle, especially if it is the first year for the model. Insuring a used vehicle is considerably lower than insuring a new model. Costs can be as different as $50 to $500 or more annually depending on the make, model, year and previous driving record of the person insuring the vehicle. Another reason for the lower insurance costs is that an older vehicle does not always need to be covered for all possible insurance options, such as collision. A brand new vehicle will need more coverage for protection from accidents. Used cars may not be under any type of service warranty so you will need to be prepared for out of pocket costs for repairs. Everything from tires to transmissions will be possible issues, so research your potential vehicle before purchasing. Some makes and models are prone to certain common repair needs so avoiding those vehicles will be easy if you check them out first. Many vehicles that are previously owned are much more reliable than they had been years ago. Vehicles manufactured since the late1980s have reported less repairs and problems occurring to the exhaust systems and body deterioration. Many of todays used cars will last well past 100,000 miles and some as high as 200,000 miles with proper maintenance and care. How the vehicle fairs will depend on how well the previous owner treated and cared for the car. Unfortunately, an older used vehicle may not have the safety requirements you would like or need to have, so make sure that this is something you take into consideration. Airbags, child safe seat restraints, and traction control are likely to be lacking, but a garage will be able to install a child protective system, and if you shop around, the other features may be found. There are a few issues to consider when buying a used vehicle but as long as you are alert and practical your purchase should prove to be well worth the efforts made. Always take the car you are considering to a respected and trustworthy independent mechanic for a through inspection. This move on its own could not only make or break the deal, but could save you thousands of dollars in repairs. About the Author:

Government Vehicle Auctions – Listings of Near New Cars for Under $5K

There have been many articles written about police and government auctions, but very seldom are there any specific examples given of the types of repossessed cars you can purchase at them. The government seldom advertises their auctions or the types of items that will be sold at them, so the only way to find out is by doing research on the Internet. The government wants to get rid of it’s inventory of foreclosed homes and repossessed cars, but they don’t want to spend any money on advertising. Can you imagine if Best Buy said they had some great deals but never really publicized what they were, they probably won’t get half the business that they do. Well in the case with government auctions they still have quite a following with virtually no promotion (mostly word of mouth) and the reason for that is simple, they have the best deals, period. Think about it, no cost paid for the goods sold and they want to move that merchandise out of their inventory as fast as possible. Compare that to a retailer who has a cost associated with each item and needs to make a certain margin on each sale. To illustrate my point here are a few samples of the repossessed vehicle auctions prices. My research consists of using the highest rated government car auctions site that has been evaluated and reviewed on my own site mentioned in the last paragraph. Keep in mind that these specific items may no longer be available by the time you read this, but you’ll still get an idea of the vehicle discounts that are available through government auctions. A sample of 5 vehicles among the thousands available are: * 2005 Porche Boxster with 14K miles – $5,790 * Pontiac 2005 Grand Am GT 13.1K miles $5,140 * Lexus 2005 RX300 4×4 13.5K miles $6,450 * Subaru 2005 Forester S 14.1K miles $4,320 * 2005 Corvette with 13K miles – $4,600 So as you see the people that are attend the auctions are getting deals much better expected. There is usually a large variety of makes and models available to choose from. So how can they be sold so cheaply and where do they come from? Cars can be repossessed for a variety of reasons including unpaid debt and/or taxes, criminal involvement, etc. Chances are your car dealership is buying at least a portion of their vehicle inventory at a government auctions, and making a good margin on that purchase so here is your chance to cut out the middle-man and pocket your savings. Going to a live on-site government auction rather then an online auction is a good idea because you will be given the opportunity to look over the vehicle before you bid on it. As I’ve mentioned in the past if you’re not mechanically inclined then bring someone to the auction who is. Also be careful to verify the quality and the history of the vehicle before you purchase. Given the fact that a small percentage of people are even aware that these auctions even exist, you’ll be able to find a vehicle of your choosing, perhaps even of higher social status then you intended for a much lower price then you expected.
