What is good mileage for a used car?

One thing that you need to carefully consider when purchasing a used car is the mileage. On average in the UK, a vehicle will drive approximately 6,600 miles per annum. This provides you with a good ballpark figure of finding out whether the mileage on a car is too high, as you can simply multiply the average of 6,600 by the number of years the car has been running.

What to look for when buying a used car?

There are a lot of different factors that you will need to consider when looking for a used car. It is important to find a vehicle that is in good condition. You want to be sure that the previous owner has cared for the car properly and that there are not any problems with it. This is why it makes sense to purchase from a dealer because you can make sure that all of the required checks have been done to make sure that the vehicle is in working condition.

What to check when buying a used car?

When buying a used vehicle, there are a number of different things to look out for. You need to make sure that the car has a current MOT and you also need to ensure that there are not any alarming signs on the registration document. In addition to this, carry out a visual check to make sure that are not any signs of removed etched-in marks, glass scratches, worn screws, or anything else that could be worrying in terms of how the car appears. You should also check the age and mileage of the vehicle.

How to pay for your used car?

There are a couple of options when purchasing a used car, you may want to pay upfront, or you may want to use finance to split the cost up. In all of our used car listings we’ll include the full price and a representative finance quote, from the lenders we work with, to give you an idea of the cost to finance.

When is the best time to buy a used car?

While there isn't a specific best time to buy a used car, there are a couple of patterns you should know about. New car models are typically released in March and September, resulting in many buyers trading in their current vehicles. As a result, there is usually a wider selection of used cars available during these times, and prices may be lower. Remember, these are just general trends, and the best time to buy a used car ultimately depends on your personal preferences and needs.

Are used cars reliable?

A big concern for most when buying a used car is how long it will last. At Swansway Motor Group, we perform a background check on every car listed on our website, so you can buy in confidence. We also include a free vehicle history check in all of our listings, fully visible before you purchase, so you know exactly what you’re buying.

Can I test drive a used car?

Test driving is the perfect way to make sure the car is right for you before you purchase, at Swansway Motor Group we offer free test drives for all of our vehicles, simply get in touch to arrange a date and time to suit you.

Can a used car be returned?

Returning a used car depends on who you’ve bought it from, the reason you want to return it and the length of time since you purchased it. If you buy a used car from a dealership and discover a fault within the first 30 days, you can return it under the Consumer Rights Act. If you discover a discrepancy in the advertisement of the vehicle you’ll have some protection under the Sale of Goods Act 1979, which states the car must match its description and be fit for purpose. Due diligence is really important here, as you’ll need to prove any faults or inaccurate descriptions were in place when you bought the car and not caused by you. If you would like to dicuss the return of a vehicle purchase from Swansway Motor Group, our customer services team are best placed to help you.
