How Are Used Cars Evaluated and Priced?

Posted: Friday, November 29, 2013


By Adriana N.

Every year millions of people purchase used cars. At one time, people were taking their chances when they purchased a used car, but now, there are a number of companies and organizations that evaluate used cars in order to assign an appropriate price to the car. The goal is to provide consumers with an honest assessment of a used car so they are well informed before they make a purchase.

The history of the vehicle is one factor that is considered when evaluating and pricing a used car. The details of the report provide such information as if the car was a fleet car, rental car, and how many owners it had. It also will tell you if the particular make, model, and year of the car has a history of mechanical issues such as engine or transmission problems. The reliability of the used car is also evaluated and if the car has a clean Title history and will pass a smog and safety inspection. As well, the amount of mileage the car has will affect the price.

Used cars are also evaluated according to their condition. The following areas are assessed:

1. The exterior of the car is evaluated. Things to look for include rust, poor paint job, dents, scratches, and leaks coming from underneath the car. As well, one assessing the car will look for any missing or broken items such as damaged or missing windshield wipers. All of the doors, panels, and bumpers should be secure and in the correct position. A used car in excellent condition will not have any defects. The condition of the tires are also evaluated which includes the condition of the treads and if they are all the same size.

2. The suspension is another area that is evaluated. The corners of the vehicle should only bounce once or twice when the car is stopped. When the car is parked, it should sit in a position. There should not be any unusual sounds when the care stops such as a creaking sound.

4. The engine and the compartment and the transmission are evaluated. There should not be any fluid leaks or unusual odors when the engine is hot. As well, there should not be any loose components or unusual when the car is running such as hissing or clanking. There should not be any missing components such as caps. The engine is also evaluated according to how well it starts and how it runs, and if there is anything unusual such as lights coming on, if the engine idles smoothly or stalls. The transmission is evaluates according to how well it shifts and if it jerks, grinds, or accelerates too quickly. The mileage of the car is also taken into consideration when pricing the vehicle.

5. The exhaust system is evaluated. There should not be any rust, loose fittings, or black smoke coming out of the muffler. Well, blue or white coming from the exhaust may indicate an engine problem. Underneath the car is assessed for rust and loose and hanging parts. There should also not be any dents or scrapes.

6. The interior of the car is evaluated which includes the upholstery, door locks, windows (how well they open and close,) seat belts, airbags, carpet, dashboard, interior lights, and accessories such as the stereo, cup holders, and ashtrays.

The amount of inspection that goes into evaluating a used car is essential to protecting consumers from buying a "lemon." Fortunately, consumers have a number of options to assessing a used car such as checking the Kelly Blue Book Value of the car and acquiring a Carfax vehicle history report.

Things to Consider When Choosing a New Car

Posted: Tuesday, November 26, 2013


By Stephanie Andrew

Choosing the car that best fits your needs and budget can seem like a daunting task. One chose a car for its design, others its badge and still others based on the image it portrays. Any car says a little about its owner and it's possible that this is related to their lifestyle which that car would have to cater for. If you take the time to do some research and put down on paper exactly what you are looking for in a new car; you will have a better understanding of the type of vehicle that will best fit your needs.

Size and Space Needed

One of the first things that you need to consider is what your current or future circumstances are as far as people in your immediate family. The people who will be driving or being transported in the new vehicle you choose. For example, are you single, married, have children or expecting a child in the near future. Your answers to the above questions will help determine the size of car you should be looking for.

Luckily, today there is large selection of compact and fuel efficient cars that are geared towards families. The cars are made to be more compact but still give you interior space for you and your passengers. Things to take into consideration include; if the family pet travels with you often or how convenient the car will be to get a car seat in and out. Your age may play an important role here! Pensioners may well like the sliding doors on models such as the Peugeot 106 while the Station Wagon or Estate cars and 4WD's have excellent room in the back for owners of big dogs and families who vacation a lot will need either a bigger car or a more powerful engine to tow a caravan for example! A 1.2 Nissan Micra or Mini First which has a 1.4 liter engine would certainly not be the car for you if that was the case. You also have to consider what type of cargo space you will want or need. Here is a little tip for the fisherman; the Toyota Estima is a great vehicle for fitting you fishing rods into and a comfy retreat when it all gets a bit much when the weather is bad as you have the space to move around and wait it out.

A Huge Variety Of Body Types To Pick From

There are a variety of types of cars to choose from and there is a type for everyone's lifestyle. A supermini is usually easy to drive and has smaller engine sizes. These are ideal cars for a small family, new drivers or someone on a tight budget. They usually have good fuel economy and the tax is lower. However, the size and performance levels are also lower.

The hatchback is one of the most popular types of cars on the road today. They have two rows of seats and cargo space behind the rear seats. These are reliable and make good family cars. In most of the models the rear seats fold down to give you even more boot space.

The MPV, which stands for Multi-purpose Vehicle, is a good choice for a large family or if you often have a lot of passengers. These types of vehicles have plenty of seats and a large boot area. They are a bigger size car and are less fuel efficient than a compact car.

A sports car is a high performance machine that usually only has two seats and most are rear wheel drive. They are not an inexpensive vehicle and are more costly to run and insure. The fuel economy usually is on the low side but they do offer power and maneuverability.

An estate car is a passenger car that has a longer body style than most hatchbacks and less room than an MPV. If you are looking for a luxury family car or an executive vehicle this might be the choice for you.

A SUV, which stands for Sports Utility Vehicle, can be used as an off road vehicle and has good towing capabilities. Nissan produce some great 4WD vehicles while the ever popular Hummer and Land Rover are still the firm favorites for larger families. They are usually equipped with strong engines and have about the same interior space as an estate. These are reliable vehicles but fuel efficiently is usually very low.

Engine and Performance

How well a vehicle will perform is a major factor to consider when choosing a car. If you use the motorways often you will want to check out the acceleration time from 0 to 60. You also want to make sure you have enough horse power for your needs. The size of the engine is also something to consider. One thing to keep in mind is the higher the performance the higher your insurance cost may be.

Cost

Once you have narrowed down your choices and have a specific model you're interested in; now it is time to do some research. The internet is a great place to find detailed specifications and information on not only the cost of the vehicle but the actual selling price of the car you are leaning towards buying. Only then are you truly more informed when you are at a car dealership. Other products such as gap insurance, comprehensive car insurance, car warranty information and car depreciation levels and car finance calculators are extremely well documented on the internet and not only indicate the true running costs of your chosen vehicle, but together with the cost of any aftermarket accessories you may want to add to your new car provide you with a global overview of the true price you will be paying. Many of these aftermarket products are also sold direct to you online again saving car buyers from paying out any extra when the dealers offers them the same products at higher prices. A small amount of research could easily save a car buyer hundreds of pounds on insurance and car tax, not to mention thousands on maintenance and new car depreciation.

Fuel Economy and Environmental Concerns

As far as fuel is concerned the most common fuel types are petrol and diesel. Petrol fuel runs well, is currently cheaper at the pumps in the UK that is but is managed by a less efficient fueling system, meaning more fuel is wasted on a trip. On the other hand, diesel has lower CO2 emissions, tends to get more miles per dollar or pound and is used more efficiently. You should keep in mind that the higher the CO2 emissions the higher the car tax will be. You want to make sure that you look closely at how many miles per gallon the car you're considering buying averages. There are other eco-friendly options available which include, electric and hybrid vehicles. There are also some vehicles being manufactured today that run on bio ethanol which is eco-friendly. Governments around the world are incentivizing car makers to produce more efficient vehicles and manufacturers realize that very soon emission restrictions will be so strict that consumers will be insisting on ultra efficient vehicles and duel fuel cars are one very buoyant market in trying time s we live in. As an ever growing environmentally conscious society consumers no longer accept second rate offers from the automotive industry and this spells a brighter future for our children!

Safety

To most people the vehicles safety is the single most important factor when choosing a new car. This is especially important if you have a young family, 3 or more kids or you simply have a lot of passengers that are relying on you to keep them safe on the road. When looking at vehicles always look at the safety features for example ask your dealer how many airbags it has, what the Euro NCAP rating for that particular model is, does Bluetooth come as an option with the radio and how many miles you should expect to get from a set of tires. Not so strange a question when you realize that every car has different rates at which they wear down their tires! An example would be the lovely Fiat Stilo which won't do more than 8 months of town driving on a set of new tires due to the way the front suspension works and the ASR setting affects the inside tire wear! But most of all please don't forget to ask about the Euro NCAP's star ratings for the car before you buy.

Purchasing a new vehicle is something that you want to take your time doing and shop around to decide which car will best fit your needs. A new car is a major investment and you want something that will be reliable and last a long time. If you consider your options wisely you will find a vehicle that will fit you and your lifestyle.

Posted: Saturday, November 23, 2013


By Paul Staunton

After market car parts is a fast growing business in the USA. Many car enthusiasts love to make their car unique and stand out from the crowd by making modifications to the original. Though due to the limited options given by car manufacturers some look elsewhere. That is where aftermarket car parts come in.

When purchasing a new car from an auto dealer, there is something commonly known as "stock" which are the standard options provided by the dealer. These standard stock options include the essential components such as engine, transmission, wheels and also performance part. The stock can also include interior car parts such as lighting. Though many dealer do provide upgrades to a certain extent these are still limited for many car enthusiast, some extras can include alloy wheels, satellite navigation and other extras. Thus many people look elsewhere to truly modify there vehicles.

Some people may purchase aftermarket car parts for safety reasons such as xenon headlight upgrades which provide brighter and whiter light and therefore greater visibility. Other people may just want their cars to look good and have that exclusivity and would purchase styling parts and accessories like body kits and alloy wheels to make their cars stand out from the crowd. For many car enthusiasts purchasing aftermarket parts and modifying their cars is a real pastime and may spend thousands on performance upgrades, interior & exterior styling as well as other cosmetics.

Many car modifications (or mods, as it is often referred) made to a vehicle are made using aftermarket car parts. So what are aftermarket parts?

Secondly ensure you know your car make, model and year as these are the common criteria used to check whether a part is compatible with your car. Finally be sure to check your local laws as installing a certain type of part may be deemed illegal in your area of residence.

Toyota Highlander Hybrid Exterior and Interior Review

Posted: Wednesday, November 20, 2013


By Thomas Jones

Exterior

As a sports utility vehicle, the vehicle is about middle-sized and is still of a large build, giving it plenty of room to move around and relax. This particular exterior looks different from others as the power train in this particular vehicle.

The grille of the Highlander has been revamped now, and the fascia itself has intake vents that are bigger and go along with the fog lamps. These are all in place to help the hybrid remain cooler and to keep this capacity as long as possible, which is certainly a benefit. There is an LED tail light now that replaces the aspirated Highlander of the conventional variety. These lights are much better for the vehicle, increasing the visibility as well as helping encourage the safety features, as well as having an aesthetic value. The actual wheels are 17-inch and alloy, as well as being mounted on stylish tires in order to gain much better traction than could be.

As for the wheelbase and stance of the car, the base is long and the actual stance seems to be very squat and stout. The actual style of the body looks much better than even anything the Lexus line has created, especially the RX 400h, Lexus's new luxury hybrid. The roofline is much more squared off, and overall, the fender arches are pretty well-proportioned. The overall style of the exterior is much more impressive, even though the silhouette of this vehicle would probably be described as relatively squished.

The Toyota Highlander is a rugged and smart-looking vehicle, and physically, this SUV is a head-turner, uniquely representing these features. Sleek with smoother outlines, the appearance also has a unified and seamless profile. For families, the vehicle even looks like a rugged outdoors vehicle that would easily be used on a weekend trip. The flow of the vehicle looks pretty awesome from top to bottom, and the exterior is a beauty.

The other amazing feature about the exterior is that the Highlander Hybrid is available in several colors, and all of them have interesting names like oasis green pearl, Sonora gold pearl, millennium silver metallic, and ash leather. The color schemes are quite interesting, and make the freedom of choice a joy.

Interior

Because of the wide and long exterior that the Highlander has, the interior is incredibly spacious and roomy, which automatically makes it extremely comfortable. Just by looking at the exterior, there is enough to tell that the multi-purpose interior is spacious and that the front and backseat areas both have enough leg room, as well as shoulder room. Inside of the vehicle, the style is cozy but smart, and has a well-refined taste to it. Already mentioned, the vehicle is comfortable, and also has plenty of characteristics that make it convenient, as well as plenty of accessories and features to make this car a blast to drive.

The bench seat is split at a forty/twenty/forty in the second of the Highlander's rows. As a result, passengers can remove the center portion of the seat if they need to, and even the entire bench can just be removed, then stored so that there is an open aisle in the center, giving more space and freedom of movement. The second row also has the capability of using two captain's chairs, and that does give the Highlander the feel close to a minivan. As for the third door, it is entirely optional, but the bench can always fold and lay flat down to the floor.

Considering there is plenty of seating and a lot of space, it isn't surprising that the Highlander could easily hold up to seven people. There is a concern, though, to note that because the third row is much more narrow than others, adults might have a harder time sitting in the third row. From the second row's back on, though, the Highlander contains at least 42 cubic feet of space.

In looking at the cargo storage abilities, the Highlander can easily carry 94 cubic feet of cargo, which makes it ideal for weekend trips or getaways. In this particular case, the vehicle is able to give enough room for cargo, as well as luggage of passengers, perhaps.

The Highlander has both base and limited trim levels in the fuel-efficient vehicles. The actual base models have five passenger seats, a phenomenal audio system, tilting and telescopic steering wheels, as well as wood-grain polished trims and an air conditioning system. Like many of Toyota's vehicles, the back-up camera is viewable through the center screen, which also gives vehicle information. In the limited models, the third row bench is added and allows the vehicle to then take on a total of seven people. The limited models have the same features as the base model, but also have a power driver's seat as well as a six-disc CD changer with a six-disc capacity in the system, located in the dashboard. In fact, it's also possible to have the rear contain a DVD system.

As for the actual cockpit, the drive is much more modernized, especially when compared with the conventional Highlander. Instead of a tachometer, the Highlander has a power meter that specifically measures the output from both engines, giving you the combined number. With this dashboard, there is a video screen that is central and in color, detailing the fuel economy as well as power flow. As well as telling diagnostic information, this screen can also display the GPS system if you wish to have one installed.

Grease And Oil On Your Car's Interior

Posted: Sunday, November 17, 2013


By Michelle Crimson

We all know the properties of oil and grease. They can really stick on anything and could become quite a mess. They are very slick and oily. Aside from these, they could prove to be quite a challenge to remove.

Much as you keep your car's interior immaculate and clean, accidents do happen. You could step on oil or grease that may have leaked from other vehicles. And when you do, you could bring it in your car's cabin without you knowing it. Well, only until you notice that oil or grease stain on your carpet - or even on the fabrics in your car. Too bad.

One of the easiest ways of removing these grease or oil stains from your car's interior is by replacing the oiled-up or greased-up parts with new parts for Jaguar XJ6. But that could prove to be quite expensive on your end when you can simply remove the stain yourself by simply using some muscles and working up a little sweat.

If you got grease or oil in the fabrics of your car, you should first blot away any excess oil or grease, especially if these elements are still fresh on the fabrics. After blotting these out and there are still more, you can try scraping them away. On the same spot, put a cloth that is very absorbent and leave it there. Let the cloth absorb any more oil or grease. Come back after a few hours and this time, apply a laundry stain remover product to the area. This would remove the stain. And when you have successfully done so, sponge the stain remover away with warm water.

Remember that should be done only in fabrics. If you get oil or grease on your leather seats or any leather part of your cabin, do not attempt to clean it up or you just might only mess up the stain more. It is recommended that you bring it to a professional leather cleaner instead.

Car Accessories And Gadgets

Posted: Thursday, November 14, 2013


By Patrick N Milligan

Today there are some pretty cool gadgets and accessories that everyone should have in their car or truck that can make your life easier and also safer! There are two products in particular that I think everyone should have in their vehicle!

The first thing that I think everyone should have in their car is the life hammer, which is a tool that you can use to prevent yourself from becoming trapped inside your car if you accidentally drive off the road into a river or a canal and the weight of the water prevents your car door from opening! It is designed to shatter car windows and has a blade that you can use to cut through seat belts! The blade on the Life Hammer is very sharp and is able to slice through seat belts with ease! The Life Hammer has a mounting bracket, that you can attach to the center console of your car, so that you will have easy access to it!

The Life Hammer also comes in a key chain version, which is called the resQme, so that you can always have the benefit of having the life hammer with you, without having to carry around the full sized version in your pocket! Some times you may be traveling with a friend in their car and want to feel secure that if something goes wrong, you will still be able to have the Life Hammer with you in a smaller version that you can attach to your keyring! It has a blade to cut the seat belts and a center punch to shatter glass and is just as effective as the larger version of the Life Hammer itself!

This second gadget will make your life easier, which is a Portable Battery Starter! This is good to have if you accidentally leave your light on in your car overnight and you find out the next morning that you are unable to start your car, because the battery is dead! If you travel a lot and stay overnight at hotels, the last thing that you want is to come out the next morning and find that you are unable to start your car, because you left your interior light on all night and it drained your battery! Having a Portable Battery Starter will eliminate the need to run around trying to find some one who has jumper cables to give you a jump start! I personally do not like to ask for strangers help, even though there are some nice folks out there that would be willing to help, I would rather just have this device in my car and jump start the battery myself! It would also be a good idea to get the Portable Jump Starters, that have a built in air compressor, which you may need sometime if you have a flat tire! The air compressor that is built into the Portable Jump Starter, are usually able to pump up a tire in less than ten minutes! This will enable you to get to a service center to get the tire repaired or replaced, without having to jack your car up and put on the spare!

Car Accessories For New Drivers

Posted: Monday, November 11, 2013


By Levi Quinn

Everyone has their own memory of the first time they were legally allowed to drive a car. It is a very momentous occasion that gives one an empowered feeling of freedom. There are several great ways to reward and congratulate the new driver that you know. Everyone needs something for their first car regardless of how new or old it is. From incredibly inexpensive to higher end, there is no shortage to the things you can give as a gift to a new driver.

A decorative license plate frame makes a nice gift and it is reasonably low in price. For twenty dollars or less you can get a really nice license plate frame. From Disney characters to fancy chrome trim, license plate frames comes in a variety of styles. You can even get some with letters that allows you to create your own custom phrase. You can take this gift to another level by having a custom license plate made for them with a word or saying of their choice.

Every new driver should have a roadside emergency kit in their vehicle at all times. Stock it with a flashlight, booster cables and flares. Other great safety items include such things as First Aid kits, blankets or candles. There is no end to safety items that you can give a new driver to increase their peace of mind. Cover all of the bases so that they can head off safely with little worries, especially new drivers that are teenagers.

A back up camera might make a nice gift and it encourages safe driving. It can be installed on the rear of the car near the license plate so that the driver can see if anything is behind the car. It's perfect for those little things that you may not be able to see with your mirrors alone.

An iPod or cell phone holder gives drivers a place to store their electronics so that they do not get tossed around inside the car. It also prevents new drivers from making the mistake of digging around in pockets to look for the item. If you choose a gift like this, make sure it allows for as much hands free action as possible.

Though it may come as a surprise to some, there are mini refrigerators available for vehicles. They are quite small and often plug into the power outlet in the car. They can often hold up to six cans of sodas and also make a great place to store lunches. It's certainly a unique idea for a gift. As far as convenience goes, a remote car starter is also a gift that tends to be well received by most people. It is a luxury that is appreciated the first time it's used.

Seat covers are something that everyone needs to have in their car. When it comes to cleanliness and maintaining your interior, it's an essential item. Seat covers come in many fun patterns and colours. They are also available in a waterproof form. This can be especially good when it comes to spills or a day at the beach. Car accessories for new drivers are numerous. There is no end to the selection.

Inspect A Used Car Before Buying

Posted: Tuesday, November 5, 2013


By Terry Brown

It is important that you inspect a used car before you actually purchase it. You see, when you do like a car because of the facts and information given while it was advertised may not be actually true. Some people who sell their vehicles would often create information about the vehicle even if they are not even actually found on the vehicle itself. So it important that you go through the vehicle and check it out first.

Look at the car's exterior first. If you notice that the paint is still new, ask when the car was painted. You see, some people when they sell cars actually paint up their vehicles so as to cover up other details like rust beneath. It is also important that you check the bumpers and the wheel wells. When you do that, look for signs of rust, dents, or body fillers. Look for rest most especially the underside. If you see exterior rust, there may be more where you cannot see them.

You should also go through both sides of the car. Check also the front, the rear, and the bottom of the vehicle and be on the alert for any signs of major body repair as well as any inconsistencies. The interior should not be simply taken for granted. Look at the interior and check if there are any damages. The upholstery should be checked for any kind of tear or stain as well as sun damage. Check the overall look of the interior.

Lift up the hood and look at the engine and see if it is clean. Look for rust on the exhaust manifold and oil leaks as well. You should also check the oil on the dipstick. Rub it against your thumb. Now, if you feel small particles in the oil, it probably means that the engine may be already worn or may be experiencing some other problems.

Start the engine and take it for a test drive. Be aware of the performance and the handling of the vehicle. Also make sure that the other features are working like the brakes as well as the vehicle's lights.
