You remember your first set of wheels? Bit of a rust bucket? Did you and your dad pour over the local paper to grab up a bargain car, putting and wheezing? Well i bet as you searched the only thing worth worrying about was that you were getting a good deal. Back in the day this proved to be most difficult at times. If you purchased from a dealer, he could tell you whatever price he wanted, and if you went with a personal sale, you could end up with a junker and not know it until a month later. This is not so much a problem nowadays. A huge amount of information is available online. I remember my first love, and no i dont mean girl. It was a 1967 Shelby GT, on its last legs, and it went for 900 bucks from a mate of mine at college. Wasnt bad for a first car really, i mean i wasnt after as souped up porsche for what i paid. It was one of those cars that you had to start everyday so it would turn ov
er when you took it out for a spin. I remember one time I had not started it for three days straight. That was a BIG mistake, but luckily I could always pop the clutch. Now although it mighten have been the most unscathed car in the world, one thing was for sure, my friend from college provided all the car information i needed upon my test drive so there wasn't any confusion.
Make sure you do lots of online research before heading out to a dealership for that new mid life crisis or family van. The world wide web will be able to provide all the price ranges, average miles and ratings for all kinds of cars. A very useful tool indeed. And the car information online will save you footwork in the long run. I mean you want a safe vehicle, and you dont want to be ripped off. So, with the car information online you will be ok for sure. When you step into that dealership, you know what the vehicle sells for. All your research online will prevent you from being duped into a bogus sale. You can even log on to find people who are selling cars online, or auctioning them off on sites like eBay. The buyer should always be the one in charge when purchasing you car, and if you find the right car information, it will be a breeze.
