    How To Save When Buying A Car In 2022

    There’s never been a better time to buy a car than in the upcoming year. After all of the time that everyone spent indoors during the COVID-19 pandemic, the freedom and safety that come with owning your own car will provide seems vital. That said, just because you’re eager to purchase a car doesn’t mean you should go into that process unprepared. 

    Freedom in the Midst of a Pandemic

    The most significant societal change in recent times has involved the COVID-19 pandemic, and it is still affecting us all in many ways. In the early days of the pandemic, when less was known about COVID-19 and how it spread, it became stressful to be out in public at all, let alone travelling on public transit. 

    However, those who owned vehicles had a different experience altogether. With a car, you can travel anywhere easily, knowing that you are safe from the risk of coming into contact with someone else. Not only does this make it easier to travel, but it also takes away a great deal of anxiety. This fact may have contributed to the rise in auto sales in 2021.   

    Returning to the Office

    If you were suddenly forced to work from home during the COVID-19 pandemic, the chances are that your employer has either already recalled you back to working regular hours in the office or is considering doing so in the near future. 

    Things to Consider When Buying a New Vehicle

    Now that you are confident that there’s no longer any reason to wait because the immediate present is the best time that you’ll find to buy a new car any time soon, you’ll want to consider the best way to buy one. Even if you’re looking for your dream car, you’ll want to ensure that you’re not spending over your budget or that you’re spending more than the car that you’re buying is actually worth. 

    Deciding on a Previously Owned Car

    It’s no secret that the most important thing you can do to save money when purchasing a new vehicle is to opt for a previously owned option. You can easily save a few thousand dollars simply by buying the same model you want if it is a used version from a few years prior. 

    Use Knowledge to Negotiate 

    Make sure that you understand the value of the car you want before you get into negotiations with your dealer. If you haven’t owned a car before, it will also help you learn about financing and insurance offers. If you’re unable to get the dealer to lower the price, you still might be able to negotiate for free services like maintenance and oil changes. 

    Buying a car may seem essential at the moment, but that shouldn’t mean that you can afford to get a bad deal. Remember, you’re making a major purchase, and you need to ensure that you get the best offer you can. 

    Start with some online research to get started, and once you feel you’re ready to buy, get in contact with a dealership that offers financing on previously owned vehicles.

    • The Audi RS3 is one of two ultimate ‘mega hatches’, and probably the best of the breed. Its astonishing pace and theatrical engine combine with huge grip and more of a driver focus than previous generations. It’s also a brilliant daily.

Are you parting with R1.3m (or more) for one? Let us know in the comments below.

    • Menacing Frozen Brooklyn Grey Metallic BMW M4 CSL sold by @bmwbryanston spotted in Linksfield recently by @thomasovitale 😎

Just 15 of these came into the country priced at R3.57m.

Would you prefer this or the freshly revealed M3 CS?

    • 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.

    • The totally bonkers Ferrari 812 Competizione was spotted in Bryanston today by Brad Ainge.

It actually makes the F12tdf look quite tame in comparison. Which would you rather have?

Priced around R14m depending on spec.

    • 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?
