A new car depreciates as much as 20 percent the moment it leaves the lot which means buying pre-owned can mean huge savings.  That is why so many people who like bargains prefer used vehicles, but for some, buying a used car can be a bit of trouble.  Buying a used car can be a great value if you find one that has been taken care of properly.  Check all available resources and data about the car you are planning to buy.  Make sure the paint matches, the body parts line up, the doors open and close easily and the tires show even wear.  Be sure to check under the hood for leaky hoses or worn belts, also be sure that the oil is clean.   When you get in the car turn the  key to accessory and make sure all of the gauges and warning lights work. Start the car and check all accessories and lights and make sure no warning lights remain lit on the dashboard. Pay close attention to all warning lights.
