| After the car has been taken for a final test drive and all
necessary legal documents are put in order, the price has to be finalised. For
most transactions, bargaining is still a part of the process. Whether you like
to bargain or not, you can control the situation by simply keeping the price of
the car totally separate from the discussion. Many sellers - especially dealers
- will try to convince you that the car you are looking at is the ideal car.
While this may or may not be true, you should be sure in your own mind that the
car is worth the asking price based on a thorough inspection by an independent
technician or diagnostic service as well as your own research. Above all, do
not let yourself be pressurised into a deal. |
