How to buy a good car
From MKRD.info Wiki
First, buy a car from my Smaller Car portal
Options that you should look for:
- ABS, ESC, power windows, remote for security and safety.
- Service needed notification (oil life, etc)
- Go for a model year that is five years old (2005+ model year currently). Cars are unusable after about 10 years (everything starts to break down), so that will give you 5 years without major headaches.
- Anything more than 50-75k miles will probably be no longer covered by relevant warranties.
- Any warranty other than the manufacturers' is good.
Options that are expensive, but sometimes worth the money
- Certified used car. You pay for an inspection, tuneup, and a warranty complimentary to the manufacturer's. Gives you a little insurance that you are not buying a lemon.
- AWD
- GPS
- ESC
- Remote start
