Prepare your vehicle before selling it

A well prepared vehicle isn't just easier to sell, it gives a buyer less chance to argue

Preparing your vehicle for a sale is an important investment in time and – possibly – money. Not only could it mean that you sell your vehicle more quickly, it might also mean you get more money for it.

Clean your vehicle-First thing

The very least you should do is to make sure it’s clean and tidy inside and outside. Simple things like clearing out the glovebox and doorbins can make the vehicle all the more attractive to a buyer. It might be worth considering a professional valet which could save you time and be a sensible investment. After all, if a Rs. 2000 valet adds Rs. 22000 to the value of the vehicle, you’re making money.

Check Electrical & Mechanical components

Likewise, go around the vehicle and check that all the electrics work – everything from the lights and wipers outside to the stereo, air-con and displays inside. You should also check that the tyres (including the spare, if your vehicle has one) are in good condition and that all the mechanical bits and pieces are in good working order.

Fix problem

If you come across any minor problems or damage, it’s worthwhile getting them fixed; and, if your vehicle has an token that is due to run out in the near future, consider getting a fresh one done. This is not just because a clean vehicle health will make the vehicle more appealing to potential buyers, but also because any obvious problem provides the buyer with the perfect opportunity to try and beat you down on price.

Finally, don’t forget that preparing your vehicle involves more than just the vehicle. Gather together all the paperwork you have for the vehicle and details of any services or repairs that you have had completed on the vehicle. Again, it all helps to make the vehicle more valuable and attractive to a potential buyer, as it will help to confirm the vehicle’s history and give the peace of mind that comes from knowing that the vehicle has been looked after.

Ok, let's sell my vehicle.
