Thinking about a pre-owned vehicle for your driveway but stuck in a rut while looking for the perfect reason to buy one? Don’t worry – it’s a more common problem than you might think. Many things can keep us on the fence as potential buyers. Sometimes it’s an emotional attachment to a vehicle that has been part of the family for years, and at others, it can be a question of taking on a new financial commitment. No matter what it is that’s holding you back, we’re here to share three perfect times to buy used cars for sale in Brisbane.
#1. And Baby Makes Three
The first scenario on our list is one of the most common to be sure. Both you and your spouse have enjoyed that two-door sports coupe for some time now, but with the family expanding and the coupe having practically no rear seats at all, now’s the perfect time to buy used cars in Brisbane. The great news in today’s pre-owned market is that there are plenty of sporty options in roomier sedans, hatchbacks, and SUVs that will accommodate your growing family on the road, and still put a smile on your face when you slide behind the wheel. Plan accordingly with this situation, as you will want your new ride in your driveway before you actually need it!
#2. He’s Dead Jim
On the original Star Trek television series, it was common to hear the character of Dr. McCoy dramatically deliver the line “He’s dead Jim” after sizing up an injured crew member. Yes, even in the future of space travel it turns out there were some things still beyond the powers of technology – and that certainly applies to our vehicles back here on Earth in the present. Time takes a toll on engines, transmissions, and every part of your car without discrimination. Perhaps the odometer has rolled over one too many times, or worse yet, a major component on your vehicle has reached the end of its service life unexpectedly. When the price of a repair no longer makes justifiable sense with respect to the age and value of your current ride, it’s time to move on.
#3. The One, The Only
This last situation may not be the automotive emergency that our first two points can be, but then again, depending on how much you love cars, it just may be an emergency after all! So let’s say that at some point in the past you found yourself absolutely taken with your own personal “dream car.” At that time, finances, family needs, or perhaps some other factor meant that you had to take a pass on that great vehicle, and you’ve regretted it ever since. Time has passed though, and guess what? The ride of your dreams is now sitting on a used dealer’s lot nearby at a great price. Don’t miss the opportunity twice – race over and make the dream a reality!
