Should I Buy a Car Online in 2023?
Posted on May 14, 2022
Our sales team are still fielding lots of questions around if they should buy a car online. We have made it as simple as possible but as it’s still new, there are still customers out there unsure of how it all works.
That’s what today’s post is all about. We’re going to walk you through the entire process from beginning to end so you know exactly what to expect.
Buy A Car Online?
The global pandemic accelerated what was already happening with the auto industry which was a shift towards online sales. We saw how successful other eCommerce models were and wanted a piece of that for cars too. Fortunately, we had a lot of the processes in place just in time for COVID.
Here’s what you need to know about buying a car online:
Research and preparation
You’ll still need to create your personal budget, save your down payment, check your credit report and set a car budget in the same way you did before.
You’ll also need to check you can qualify for a car loan if you’re using one and begin setting the budget for the car.
Once done, you can begin researching the car. Check car review websites, check YouTube, Kelley Blue Book and other places where cars are reviewed.
Gather as much information as you can about the car you want to buy.
Then prepare your paperwork.
That means proof of income, ID, address, savings and the usual. Prepare 3 months of bank statements, extra evidence of income if you’re self employed and any paperwork you think you’ll need to qualify for a loan.
If you’re not using a car loan, prepare the cash you’re using to buy the car and your trade in if you’re using one.
If you’re trading in, we will need a video walkaround of your car so we can provide a trade in quotation. We can discuss that with you at the time if you prefer.
Check our stock list for all the latest models and offers. Check the listing, check the pictures, check the video if there is one. If there isn’t a video, you can request one from our team.
