    When you are selling a used car, your best interest is to sell it for the right price and quickly. If you are living in Fort Lauderdale, the process of selling your used car has been made simpler. You can use various sites to post your ad if you want to sell your car in Fort Lauderdale and its environs. As a seller, you should always know what exactly the buyers are looking for. Setting a competitive price and providing a lot of information to the buyers regarding the vehicle’s history helps speed things along.

    When purchasing used cars, buyers want to feel confident and secure. If you are selling your car privately instead of trading it to a dealer, make sure your advertisements stand out, and the prospective buyer has nothing to worry about. Here are practical monitoring top tips on selling a used car.

    1. Prepare Your Car

    Make sure that the vehicle is fully valeted. Take time to clean the outside, and inside making sure, it is clean throughout the time you are trying to sell it. Without any doubt, this will add value to your sale. Additionally, if there are minor blemishes like broke handle or trunk, fix them, and it will be worth it because it takes a minor fault to turn off the buyer.

    2. Pricing

    Be realistic about the price you are selling your car. Sometimes, you can put the price slightly higher then negotiate to get the deal that suits you. Use independent sources to determine the retail and wholesale value of your target vehicle. If your price is above the market, remember to explain why you are selling it with accessories that were not standard.

    3. Where to Advertise

    These days, advertising online is cheap and quite easy to do. Furthermore, when you choose to advertise your car on a site, be careful about the details you include in your ad and do not include your home address. Remember to list any extras your vehicle has and always be honest.

    4. Get your Paper Work in Order

    Make sure that your car is well serviced and all minor faults are fixed before you advertise your car for sale. If you don’t inform your potential buyers about any flaws your car has, then you have to adjust the price down.

    5. Documents

    Make sure you have your logbook, owner’s manual, and service records ready for the buyer to inspect.

    6. The Meeting

    Meet potential buyers somewhere away from your home with the car. If you are somehow nervous, then have a family member or friend to accompany you.

    7. The Test Drive

    Make sure you look at the driving license of the potential buyers before allowing them to drive your car. Never, ever, let them drive without you inside the vehicle. Check, with your insurance company, if the potential buyer would get covered– in case you get into an accident during the test drive.

    8. Expect to haggle

    Selling a car can become the most challenging bargaining of your entire life, so prepare yourself. Before you list your car for sale, think about the lowest price you can expect. Always stick to the price you cannot go past and when you reach it, inform the buyer that is the final price.

    9. Receipt

    After agreeing on the price and the buyer accepts to purchase the car from you, provide them with a signed receipt stating the car is being sold as seen and make sure to keep a copy for yourself.

    10. Done Deal

    Do not hand over the keys of your car unless they have paid fully. If they pay you by cheque, be patient and wait for it to clear.

    Selling your current car on your own will likely get you a higher price than trading it in. You might also need to prepare yourself, to go through taking a lot of phone calls, advertising and show the cars to potential buyers, to get the better deal.

    • The BMW i4 M50 is quite possibly the best EV we have had the pleasure of testing.

It's superbly comfortable but at the simple touch of a button, it switches from tourer to tornado and you find yourself instantly doing speeds you should not be doing.

While not all EVs will have the same refinement or scintillating performance, this was both relaxing and thrilling to drive.

The Gran Coupé is a handsome car with a sense of sleek length and disguises its hatchback as a booted saloon rear end and that M Portimao Blue metallic paint certainly garnered a lot of positive attention.

Compared with the BMW iX it’s less of a show-stopper, but comes with a much more attractive price tag – and while the i4 is still quite the financial investment (R1,6m) we feel it gives you excellent value in return.

Yes, we did have a few charging issues (Eskom) and if you don't have a Wallbox charger at home filling up with petrol is MUCH easier. However, that being said if you’re looking for an outstanding driving experience both on the twisties and on the highway, this is definitely worth considering if you have decided to make the jump to the electric car.

    • Our time has come to an end with the most potent version of Mzansi’s favourite bakkie, the new Toyota Hilux GR-Sport.

The 2.8-litre turbo diesel powerplant has been tweaked to push out 165kW and 550 Nm thanks to an updated ECU which also responsible for the much needed revised mapping of the six-speed auto.

The sporty Hilux gets new monotube shocks as well as stiffer coil springs which make the bakkie a lot more settled at higher speed and provide great feedback on some of the twisty bits. If you don’t have a full load at the back however, you might find it a tad too stiff and rather twitchy for day to day driving. 

Inside you get a load of sporty touches including “carbon fibre” trim pieces but the highlight has to be the race inspired front seats complete with Alcantara inserts and some GR badging on the headrests. 

For the Hilux customers, this is a welcome addition to the range as the exterior and interior aesthetics align very neatly with the GR brand.

Yours from R891,400. Are you picking this or the Legend RS?
