Hey Motors Have Some Tips for Selling Your Car

The days of placing a piece of cardboard with a for sale sign on your car are long gone. Nowadays, if you're serious about selling your car, you have to be a bit more professional in going about it, and Hey Motors have some good ideas when you are looking to sell your car with them.

Firstly, and very obviously, you need to have a clean and presentable car. Remember that you only get one chance to make a good impression, and that first impression will be how your car looks. Going to a detailer is best, but if you have the patience to do a few hours of cleaning yourself, you will save some money. Wax your car as a final step to restore some of the paint's gloss. If you happen to read other articles with selling advice, you will find that cleaning your car is one of the top five tips to sell your car.

Secondly, you need to make sure your car is in sound mechanical condition, as unexplainable noises will turn off a buyer pretty quickly, or be a chance for the buyer to ask for an unreasonable drop in price. Change the engine oil 1 week before you put your car up for sale, top up coolant and washer fluid reservoirs as well as the brake/clutch fluid containers.

Thirdly, now that your car is spic and span, take plenty of clear pictures, using a decent camera, not the one on your phone. Buyers will think that if you can't take the time to take proper pictures, then you most probably didn't care for your car in the same way.

You also need to have proof of ownership, service records, registration and other pertinent records on hand. It will also help a lot if you have a few months left in the motor vehicle's registration, show as complete a maintenance record as you can and if you don't have service records or receipts, even a maintenance journal will help.

Finally, Hey Motors will assist in setting a reasonable selling price, so for more information on applying for vehicle finance, used cars for sale and car dealers Auckland please go to http://www.heymotors.co.nz .
