There are many benefits to buying a used Honda car, like lower costs, access to a wider range of models, and a lower rate of depreciation. Hall Honda Virginia Beach is here to help you pick out the perfect pre-owned vehicle, and we’re sharing the top questions you’ll want to ask during the purchasing process.
How Many Miles Does It Have?
It’s typically more useful to look at the mileage on a pre-owned vehicle, rather than its age. The mileage tells you how far the vehicle has been driven, and how much life it will have left in its essential parts and systems.
How Many Owners Has It Had?
The fewer previous owners a vehicle has had, the better. With fewer owners, it’s easier to confirm the history of service and repairs, and there’s a smaller chance that the vehicle has been tampered with in any way.
What is the Accident History?
Vehicles with a history of accidents aren’t necessarily off the table, but it’s still useful to know about any previous collisions. This will help you to adjust your pre-owned vehicle purchasing budget for future repairs and services.
What is the Service History?
You also want to look into how well the vehicle was serviced and how regularly. The more consistent the vehicle’s service history, the longer and more efficiently it will typically run.
Does It Still Have Warranty Coverage?
New Honda cars come with a three-year/36,000-mile Limited Warranty and a five-year/60,000-mile Powertrain Limited Warranty, so your used car may still have its original coverage. Plus, you can always purchase an extended warranty.
