Buying a new car is a complex procedure and a confusing process. Shall we help you organize your thoughts?

It all starts with the question: What car do you need? When you are considering buying a car, before any other action or thought, first check with yourself: what car do you need?

Make a list - what is important to you in a car? We have prepared a list of things that are generally important in a car and specifically for you. For example:

Safety: The safety system is one of the most important details to consider when buying a new car. Today, as safety systems become more sophisticated, you can find a wide variety of them, from autonomous braking systems to traffic controls and sensitive warning sensors. Mark the systems you are not willing to give up on, such as airbags, reverse sensors, or seat belt sensors even in the back seats. When examining the details, do not skip any system and do not compromise, as it is about your life safety.

Comfort: When you go to buy a car, it is important to also consider the driving experience and suitable accessories. Emphasize the comfort parts that are especially important to you. If you are a large family or those who travel a lot, you will need a larger trunk according to the contents.

Also, pay attention to parameters such as fuel consumption, technical capabilities, and performance.

Write down all the things that are important to you, those you will not compromise on, and work according to the list.

Budget and financing After you have defined the basic starting points for yourself, it is time to move on to the next point: your budget for buying a car. Of course, you want to find a car that meets all your requirements in the best possible way and at the minimum cost – as much as possible, of course. This depends quite a bit on your decision where and from whom to buy a car. Every car purchase deal has advantages and disadvantages, and here are the main options available to you.

Buying a first-hand car from a private seller. The advantage of this type of purchase is that, in most cases, private car owners take care to maintain their car regularly. However, a private seller will not be able to give you a warranty, and in most cases, the deal will cost you more than the actual value of the car.

Buying a 0 kilometers car from the leasing company may save you a lot of headaches and also quite a bit of money. This is what happens when the leasing company is the first hand on paper, and you are actually buying a first-hand car with 0 kilometers, and paying much less than for a new car.

Buying a second-hand car. Such a purchase will indeed cost you less but will require a lot of effort: a thorough inquiry about the car's mileage as a start, a general system check, a review of the car's body parts, treatments the car has undergone, and ownership documents – this is just part of the extensive work you will need to do before buying the car.

Check the options available to you and try to understand which deal is the most profitable for you.

And we haven't even talked about warranty and reliability When buying a second-hand car, go through all the purchase steps with extra caution. Check who the previous owners of the car were and what the mileage distance is. Check the car systems and it is recommended to do this professionally. Make sure the car has not been in any accident and that no body parts were damaged. Pay attention to checking the transmission and brakes, even the smallest malfunction can be critical in these parts. Ask to see the car's license and its service book. Examine the originality of the engine and the finish level of the different car parts. Do not give up on a test drive where you can get to know the car and feel it.

When buying a car from a leasing company, you can of course enjoy full warranty, savings in bureaucracy, reliability, and confidence in the professionals. Such a purchase will save you a lot of headaches and unnecessary worries.

In conclusion When you go to buy a new car, write yourself a checklist and stick to it. Mark the points and details that are important to you, those you will not give up on, and act accordingly.
