Question from the forum “Behind the wheel” – we answer them from time to time.
— When selling a car through trade-in, is it necessary to go to the salon of the same brand to get a better price?
– No difference. In the trade-in scheme, salons of all brands work like regular dealers, according to the same market principles. No one will do any favors. Especially now, with a shortage of cars.
There is some difference with the option to exchange “used for used” or simply when buying with mileage at trade-in. Therefore, it is better to buy Kia in Kia showroom and Mazda in Mazda showroom. On “their” models, dealers, as a rule, carry out the preparation for sale and the elimination of minor defects more carefully..
Again, there is no money gain, but quality gain is possible.
Buying and selling through trade-in to the official’s salon is the most reliable and quiet option. The risk of fraud is here minimized. Benefits – save time in the search for a seller or buyer, meetings and negotiation; cars – legally clean; mileage – not twisted (although this happens).
