Talking delivery of a new car is a dream to everyone. While it’s easy to get lost in the moment of being handed the keys to your new set of wheels, you should take care that everything is in order. The advice in this article will help you save money, get the best deal, and hopefully, reduce the amount of stress involved with purchasing a vehicle.
It is always recommended to take a knowledgeable person along with you while selecting a car. It is good to have an extra set of eyes and ears as you inspect the car so that you’re more likely to notice things that may have been missed if only a single person were looking over the car.
Always check all the functions and components like the wing mirrors, seats, steering and seatbelts work properly and check all electrical within the cabin such as the audio system/ touchscreen, the instrument cluster lights, cabin/reading lamps etc. Also walk around the car and inspect the surfaces for dings and scratches and places that may look repainted. Also keep an eye out for misaligned panels or improper panel gaps, which could indicate a shoddy repair job.
Don’t forget to open the bonnet and look for any signs of fluid leaks, dirt, grime and signs of rats. Also check all fluid levels to ensure they are at the correct level and colour. It’s also worth inspecting the rubber housings, tubing and insulation casings of wires under the bonnet for damage.
It is very essential to take a Pre-delivery test drive as it is to check out your new car’s mechanicals. Insist on taking it for a test drive before officially accepting delivery. A test drive will help zero-in on any mechanical issues – manufacturing defects or otherwise. If the car has been lying still for a while, the tyres may develop a flat spot.
This is the final and the most crucial step, the customer should check the manufacturing month and year of the car. Remember to ask the dealer to show you the “Form 22” which is issued by the manufacturer and mentions the vehicle’s engine number and chassis number along with the month and year of manufacture.
