    When you’re ready to sell your vehicle, you might want to consider preparing it for the moment. It’s not the same to sell a ruined vehicle and a sparkling one that looks ready to go on a rally race. Your car is neither, but you need to make it look this way.

    Everyone would want to sell their car for a higher price. You need to convince the buyer that your asset is worth as much as you’re asking for it, but you won’t do that unless you make some changes in your vehicle that will make the buyer realize it’s worth getting it.

    In this article, we’re sharing a couple of tips on making your vehicle worth more by doing some of the simplest things. We also included a few investments that will raise the value, and if you manage to handle all, be sure that buyers will see your vehicle as outstanding. Follow up to learn more on how to raise the value of your car.

    1. Keep it spotless

    People are visual beings, and they’ll notice the car’s look first. This is why it’s best to take it to the cleaners or take things into your own hands and clean it thoroughly. It has to be sparkling clean. That means taking out the seats, rubbing under them, and washing them thoroughly from the outside.

    When you make it spotless, you can only then show it to buyers. Mind the look of the lights and rims. They tend to deteriorate over time, so you’ll need to either replace them with new ones or opt for deep cleaning and colour changing. Both will make your vehicle look brand new, and that’s what buyers want to see before handing over money to you.

    2. Take it to the mechanic to check for eventual flaws

    When a person wants to buy your vehicle, they might want to check it out first. A skilled and experienced car inspector may come along, and they’ll thoroughly check everything underneath the hood. They’ll easily see if there’s something wrong, and you won’t be able to sell it.

    Instead, you should take it to the mechanic and let them do the same. The mechanics might tell you that your vehicle is in perfect condition, after which you have nothing to worry about. If they tell you that something needs to be fixed, then let them do it, and add this fix to the resume of the vehicle, explaining to the buyers that a particular part was just changed, and they won’t need to worry about it for years.

    3. Add some new tires

    The rims and the tires are one of those things a person immediately notices when looking at a car. There’s something about them that adds the complete picture of a vehicle. This is why you need to pay special attention to the tires and the rims.

    If they are worn out, it’s best to change them. If they are only dirty, it would be best to clean them. However, just a little investment in the rims and the tires may give you a great advantage in the negotiating process. Having them spotless will let you be sure that the buyer loves how the car looks.

    4. Install a toolbox, or other features

    The best thing to do to raise the value of your car is to add some features making your vehicle entirely different from the original version one may buy at the dealership. If you add a toolbox like those made from OZY Toolbox, for example, you’ll raise the car’s value tremendously.

    This is important because people who buy used vehicles will have an abundance of items to choose from, and only yours will have this kind of add-on. It will make it unique, so you can set a higher price that will make it worth more. The investment will pay off.

    5. Always park in a closed location

    The trick to preserving the paint on your car is to always keep it under the shade. The sun rays will damage the paint and destroy the lights’ plastic cover. The best thing is to park it in a garage in the dark, or better said, out of the sun’s reach.

    If you keep it inside, this won’t happen. Your car will look spotless when you take it out to sell it. It will look like it was just bought and taken out of the salon. It’s easy to sell a car like this.

    Conclusion

    These are some of the most valuable tips you’ll get for raising the value of your vehicle. If you’re thinking about selling it, these are some things you need to do. Keep it clean, let the mechanics inspect it, add some features to it, and you’ll get a great deal for it.

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

This thing packs a whopping 791 hp (590 kW) and 1,430 Nm of torque.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
