13:00 Notice how the dealer sits on a chair that's higher than yours. It's a classic psychological selling tactic. His chair will usually have arm rests too whereas yours won't.
I take my shoes and socks off, put my feet on his table and start waggling my toes. The fact that I haven't cut my toenails for eighteen years adds to the drama.
I have yet to see this yet in a dealership but I believe it. Most dealerships I've worked with have terrible seats for both staff and customers. LOL Doesn't really make sense when we all know they can afford it. Although I did have a customer once say that she likes the old chairs because it doesn't look like we are robbing people and getting fancy furniture. LOL
Very good informative video. Even mentioned the way that a new oil change turns black quickly on a diesel, something that I didn't know and caused me to question whether the dealer HAD serviced the car before I picked it up.
Great video. Just a note, "mayonnaise oil" can just be that the car has been used for short journeys, the oil never heats up enough to evaporate any normal water vapor in the oil. My car has always had mayo oil for the sole reason I only drive I 5km a day. No other problems.
worth noting too that since this video was made the rules have changed you have to tax the car yourself a car cannot have remaining tax on it the moment its sold the seller gets the remaining tax left and you have to retax it yourself
8:27 'Leave the seller behind' - Is that even possible? Does the driver no have to sit-in whilst driving? What if the potential buyer damages/steals the car?
Lots of good advice, obviously directed at UK shoppers. I'd add that you should remove the oil filler cap and check for the same oil/coolant "mayonnaise" indicating failed head gasket or cracked block and for carbon-crud indicating bad oil and/or infrequent changes. Have someone else start the engine from cold and check the appearance of the exhaust. White may indicate bad head gasket. Brief blue is usually valve guide seals. Continuous blue is usually due to bad rings. Don't buy it. Pulsation in the brake pedal with light application = warped rotors. If the A/C needs "gassing", it's leaking and that's a problem. Check wipers, lights, etc. Go to your bank or credit union for financing, not the dealer or anyone that the dealer recommends. Check Consumer Reports for the long-term reliability of the car. Don't buy anything that other owners are having problems with. Will you pay the dealer too much? Yes, always. You'll either know it or you won't know it. But hopefully not too much.
you should leave the seller behind while test driving? :) Are you nicking the car. The buyer does not trust the seller and the seller does not trust the buyer. That is the game so no way I am letting anyone test drive a car without me in as a seller:)
Agreed, its best to go with the seller. Nobody can sit quiet in their own car and they will start to defend or brirng up issues and explain why its the way it is. You'll get to know the seller just from being trapped in a car with him and learn real quickly how genuine someone might be or not be.
I'm going to test drive the car in the manner I'm going to drive it if it's mine. You want to sit next to me at ninety miles an hour? If so, come on the test drive with me.
Colour of engine oil is a good indication to general engine condition with petrol engines. I also remove the oil filler cap whilst engine is running and up to temperature to check for excessive blow by (worn piston rings).
+Mladen Milić speed up to 120 km/h or more on the motorway and see if the chassis is getting too unstable or the engine screaming a lot or the engine overheating.
I got a 4 year old Toyota from a Toyota dealer, it was in perfect like new condition except the tires were a but worn, but came with an in built sat nav, only had 16000 miles on it too. It was probably more expensive than buying private, but so far I found it great for a used car.
Your liberal use of the word gay to mean something that's dumb or stupid, makes me very very comfortable! A man can't like another man's accent without it being gay? And even if I meant it in a homosexual way, why would that be wrong? Yeah. Think before you talk dipshit.
Any car owner with a brain swaps out all parts throughout the car's lifetime. My car was made 35 years ago and it runs no different than when it was new.
Finally! Some real explanation with actual papers and not just them talking throughout the video. I'm buying a car, why would they think that their face helps me on that? Stupid content creators.
The comment about buying privately / always meet at the seller’s house so you know where to go to complain if something goes wrong after buying to complain - Sorry but private sellers are under no obligation to do anything and most won’t - buyer beware! If you want a money-back guarantee then buy from a trade seller / dealer!
+Felix Albrecht If it's a dealer they will likely have some sort of insurance in place for a test drive, if private it might be wise to arrange one day insurance.
ramiahmadful I had a Citroen xantia from new did 135000. In 4 years New brake pads , new battery , new throttle cable x2 , and that was it in 135000 miles
RedRashBallz Oh what's right with them? They'd try to sell you their own mothers for a few hundred if they could. They have no concern for your safety. One once sold me a car that wouldn't accelerate - and that's dangerous on the motorway.
what a stupid comment,colour or race makes no difference, a con artist is a con artist,colour and Creed don't make or stop you being a con artist car dealer.
A lot of people I know have had a number of bad cars me I have seen 9 brought 7 of them and only had lbad one I regretted buying, yes going to town on a car that your going to pay a lot of money 6 - 7 year old yes that is fine this method is perfect. But unlike 20l4 there is lots that can be done today before you even see a car, the man said about driving the car without the seller, these days because of new tax laws that the car is no longer taxed when it is sold to another, that is including cars sols to a dealer so how can they take you for a test drive? Easy they can put their trade plates on which the law says they can do if they are taking the car for repairs, test or test drive to sell the car, the law states only the dealership that as the trade plates are allowed to used them so without a member of the garage in the car it can be taken and you fined by the police. He did all he thought it would be and even took it to the Audi dealer and the fault was never found, he paid cheap for it so it happens to the best of us. But like I said 80% of your decision these days can be made before you see the car, I will list my method of buying a used car, unlike this man I am not bothered over slight imperfection if the price is right for the motor, 90% of used cars sold have been in a small bump and had body work done so to buy a car without some minor repair your not going to find one, the last car I got had the side door mended and window never went up and down but it was a £l,000 below the book value. Anyway lets get into my steps and whay I have had 95% success lof getting value for money, I will do this in steps. Step l: Looking for a car, Look on the sites where you are looking for a car, put in what sort of car you want. When you see something you like , read the pecifics as they usually a small history, if after reading the information you like what you read, next step. Step 2: Contacting the seller, I usually do this by email as its the easiest way to get as much information as possible and negotiating , before seeing the car you want to get to know everything about the car, if dealer doesn't contact you then it is usually because your asking to many questions and something is wrong. If you can't see reg number ask for it, there is a lot you are going to find out on the reg nimber, pay for a full check, MOT history and how long it is MOT for, if car is under month I ask the dealer if they are willing to get a full test, usually have a little difficulty here but they do eventually agree if they want to sell the car. The last car I asked them to get a full MOT for wanted a commitement for me to buy, I said no never commit yourself before seeing the car, it was 20 minutes he rang me and ask if he did I would defently go and see the car? I said yes, he said what he was getting from it? I said if I decide to buy car I will give him the asking price unless there is something serious. He agreed and booked it MOT and theses days you can check, it did fail on suspension spring and side light and advisory nearside tyre otherwise good. Now the next step. Step 3: Seeing the car, arrange a concenient time for your both, my dealer picked me up from the train station and took me to his Forcourt and saw car, he gave me the key and left me alone, asked him for log book as it is important to check vahicles details, checked fluids aand looked under car to see for any oil leeks, everything looked good very little rar and rear to seats, steering wheel in great conditiion. Time for test drive he came with us but wasn't obstructed, ask if there was a bypass and there was, took it down bypass it drove locvely, after my 30 minute test drive went back to forcourt opened bonnet checked fluid again and looked under car, everything looked good no need to nogotiate as we did that in first step. Next step. Step 4: Buying the car. Never do this outside go into the office, first thing get insurance swapped over even if you was insured third party to drive it with the dealer the car is now becoming yours, good new once you swap insurance you are usually insured to drive your old car as well for l4 days at no extra cost, makes it easier if you don't part exchange car so you can sell yours. The dealer will tax car for you online and make sure you get a receipt and paperwork and your off. Like I said out of 9 cars I viewed in my driving life I brought 7 and only ever had l regrete, so yes my method is 95% effective, only ever had one seller to give up at communications stage and that is when I asked for a full MOT. done, the good thing about this it brings another in the sale and if there is any dangerous faults and dealer isn't willing to do anything then the test station if they have given a incorrect test wont want you going to DVLA and risking their test licence and you know the car is safe, if your driving home and you get stopped by the Police you are responsible for the safety of the car your driving, if they find any dangerous parts in car show them the full test it changes everything as car should be fully road worthy after a test. There is 28 days for any safety measure with car and 3 month for serious corrosion in a new test. It is better then lowering the price forvthe car.
Great info there, thanks for sharing on youtube. I am looking to spend around 7 grand on a Dacia Duster in January so will be doing a lot of checks now :)
What you should do is actually explain why there is a high concentration of german cars in your vid, and if german engineering is just a mith. Please try to explain objectively not subjectively why some brands (20.000 to 40.000) are so much expensive and try to clearify things for users in search of a car but don´t actually know what to pick (what brand or model) ... Thank you very much and good job as always:)
I don’t have a car yet. But this question is too vague and without knowing your specific circumstances, hard to answer. I personally am considering a vaxhuall Astra as a potential car . 2010 is fairly recent. So the model is not bad and you can get it for good prices . But the rest just depends on your preferences , budget and planned usage of the car
@@Saif-xk1qm 75k is a good amount of mileage for its age. And 1L is small, so it will be cheaper to insure. Manual also makes the car price cheaper too. This is all good if you’re under 25 trying to get insured for the first time. Just make sure to inspect the specific car and test drive it before buying, to see if there are any faults
@@samuelyirgalam8776 thank you so much.. I'm actually 29 years old.. I am new to UK.. I'm from India driving car from 18 years old.. You got any idea how much will be my insurance cost if I buy that 1 litre astra?
@@Saif-xk1qm typically from what I know based on friends of my age between 18-24 insurance even for cheaper small engine cars can easily be around 2k . However insurance past the age of 25 does get a little cheaper. Further more if u are able to add someone you know who is an experienced driver on to your insurance you could dramatically reduce the price closer to 1k , along with getting a black box and other little things
Be aware of second-hand car sellers... There are too many scammers and cheaters who sell their cars at a good price which is not worthy of those car conditions.
@@josefabeckham194 yeah .. My friend advised me to visit a web portal which is confidentcarbuyer there is a course which support me as a proficient in this matter..
@@elidakeane5399 on this web portal, there are many videos about buying used cars and engine conditions and also many items... This is just compact and free also..
Kind of useless, he mentions a bunch of serious far fetch problems that "could" be causing a minor drivability issue. For example a deviation in steering is almost always due to a bad alignment and rarely ever caused by the driveshaft even in a fwd. he however mentions the 2 as if it was a 50-50.
And nit doing thuis suggests a seller skimping on maintenance and not llooking after the car. It it is something like air-conditioning that doesn't work, that's fair enough. But if it is something that makes a car unsafe or wears out engine, etc that would be a bad sign.

If you're buying from a private seller and its your first car hiw would you test drive? Insurance??
Awesome Information, helping me a lot with buying a used car.
if you have any questions about buying new or used, Just Ask Dad! :)
This sounds like you want a used car for the condition of a new one.
If the car has some years it's expected to have some minor issues.

@@elidakeane5399 on this web portal, there are many videos about buying used cars and engine conditions and also many items... This is just compact and free also..
@@josefabeckham194 He doesn’t need to suffer anymore if he needs a lot of skills to buy a used car. We should be skilled in this matter.
Too much work, I will just buy a new car.
I wouldn't buy a new citroen (not anywhere near list) so I would happily send an hour going over a used car I was thinking of buying.
Bro treat yourself well and get a new pair of shoes. thx for the the video
Kind of useless, he mentions a bunch of serious far fetch problems that "could" be causing a minor drivability issue. For example a deviation in steering is almost always due to a bad alignment and rarely ever caused by the driveshaft even in a fwd. he however mentions the 2 as if it was a 50-50.
He said it could be such and such but the worse case scenario could be whatever.
On the other hand, if you are selling a car shouldn;t you get the weheel alignment checked out first? It's not an expensive fix after all
And nit doing thuis suggests a seller skimping on maintenance and not llooking after the car. It it is something like air-conditioning that doesn't work, that's fair enough. But if it is something that makes a car unsafe or wears out engine, etc that would be a bad sign.
used car buying is stressfull there is lots of lemons out there
i don't understand, this means that citroen make good cars ? i don't buy it ;)
the car has in good shape and very cheap...
E90 M3 beside the Citroen!!!
