How to choose a car?

To help make the right choice to help a number of simple advice. New or old all buyers of foreign cars can be divided into two groups. Some try to get a new car, while others are oriented to a second-hand. The advantages of the new machine is its much higher reliability and warranty products. There is a new machine and cons - it is much higher compared to "second hand" value. In addition, we must not forget that buying a new car today, say, $ 20 thousand a year it will not be sold for $ 18-19 thousand losses will be substantially greater. Therefore, a new car more suitable for those who want to purchase a vehicle for a long time and have a minimum of problems with its operation. And buying a used car can be recommended to fans often change cars. CONCLUSION: It is never too old to take a foreign car, which was once a prestigious - the cost of its maintenance and repair will be very high. The new car is best to acquire the same calculation that it will be operated for several years. How much pay is generally believed that a person can afford a car worth no more than his annual salary. That is, if each month's personal account received $ 1.5 thousand, then a car to look for in a price range to $ 18 thousand, to a maximum of $ 20 thousand is necessary to take into account how much will it cost operation of a particular model. Start here is primarily with the fuel consumption. To fuel must be added the cost of maintenance every 10-20 thousand miles. As well as the price of insurance for the risk of theft / loss - believe me, it is much quieter. On average, it turns out that if a car valued at approximately $ 20 thousand in costs to the cost of gasoline, insurance, maintenance, taxes and other things are about $ 2.5 thousand per year or $ 208 per month. It should be added, and the losses incurred by the budget resale cars in the future. So, three years of operation the new car will become cheaper by about 25-35%, and therefore, when the car's price of $ 20 thousand net loss would be $ 5-7 thousand dollars or approximately $ 166 per month during the first three years. The result is obtained for $ 375-400 per month (for a new car price of $ 20 thousand). If we are talking about a car worth $ 50-70 thousand, then the costs have already grow up to $ 600-1000 and more. CONCLUSION: Before you buy a car need to count how many it will demand money. Size does matter after determining their financial capacity to reflect on what you want the same class vehicle. In addressing this question we must consider not only personal preference, but also the conditions in which the vehicle will be operated, how often it will need to carry more passengers or cargo, and so on. If you need a simple means of transportation around the city, then it is best to choose a small mikrolitrazhke (its advantages are the low price, low operating costs, ease of maneuvering and parking). Head of a large family, which often goes to the cottage, the best look at the roomy minivans, station wagon or hatchback. But SUVs can be recommended only when there is a need to periodically go on nature. And then in this case it is best to look toward the so-called "parketnika", which combine the comfort of the passenger car with SUV capacity. These SUVs have the same sense to buy only for those who do rarely leaves on the asphalt - comfort of these machines is far from ideal, and maintenance costs (and the machine itself) is quite high. Here, incidentally, you can remember the favorite saying of employees Land Rover - «90% of SUV buyers never ever use the car at full capacity. And only 9.9% think that using ". CONCLUSION: At a constant driving around the city a large sedan or SUV is not needed. If there is a desire to buy a car for all occasions, it is best to get a roomy minivan, station wagon or SUV parquet. But the prestigious sedans luxury you have to buy only when required by the status of man. Pontus more money for Russia's consumers are very important factor is the mark of the future of the car and its prestige. Because of this criterion, many do not even want to consider as an option for some Korean model, although now in Hyundai and Kia have a very good car. But the Japanese and, of course, the European brands, are quoted quite good. By the way, buying car, a brand which is valued among other motorists, will help in the future for its resale. There also may be advised to refrain from acquiring all sorts of exotic cars, which in Russia are found in small quantities. They, of course, attract the views of others, but their maintenance and resale may have big problems. CONCLUSION: If social status is an important factor for a person, then it is best to buy a car any more or less prestigious, but at the same time and spread the brand (in Russia is best quoted from European and Japanese models). However, if you want a simple means of movement, then we must pay attention not to the brand, but on the technical characteristics of the vehicle, reliability and price. From the "exotic" is best to give and in this case. Heart of the choice of choosing a vehicle to decide, and with what engine will be under the hood. Not always the principle of "bigger is better" applies to the car. Models with large volume propulsion units are much more expensive than their "brothers" with motors easier. It is believed that for small cars "golf-class" is usually enough power in the 75-150 hp, and car class «D» on the European classification (Opel Vectra, Volkswagen Passat, etc.) enough for 90-180 hp . This car with a diesel engine is worth buying only if annual mileage is more than 30 thousand km. Or, better still more than 50 thousand km. A few words should be said about the bundle. If there is a desire to buy more or less decent foreign car, it is best to immediately seek a, where there is at least minimal electro, air conditioning and ABS. But the navigation system in Russia is absolutely useless - it does not work with us. CONCLUSION: In general, the best choice is the motor, which occupies a middle position in the model scheme. And one more tip. Never trust a sweet speeches car dealer. Remember - the seller does not want to solve your problems, but to sell their goods. And he has every car will have excellent comfort and fantastic cross and almost cost free service. So before you buy should always try to run a few cars of similar class in order to understand which of them better.
