Negotiate a Price

You need to negotiate a price for the car with the dealership or from a private seller to save yourself thousands of pounds. Get an idea of roughly how much you should be paying for the car by using online car valuation tools and reading buying guides from popular car magazines. Use this value as your starting price or ask the dealer to match the cost. Do not be afraid to go low for a used car. However, do not try to go lower than the bottom range of prices for that model as the seller may not be keen on bargaining. If you found minor issues after inspecting the car, you can use these problems to get the seller to lower the price of the car. It is okay to walk away from the negotiation if you feel that the seller is offering too much than what you expected the price of the car to be.
