The National Consumer Agency launched 'A Guide to Buying a Car' for consumers purchasing new and second-hand cars on 20 June 2007. The guide aims to increase consumer awareness of their rights and issues that may arise when buying cars.
The guide includes a wealth of information to help consumers decide which type of car they need. Once they have decided on the car, the guide gives top tips on checking the condition of the car, performing background checks, payment options and legal rights when purchasing a car.
It also includes a comprehensive checklist for consumers to use when buying a vehicle. Furthermore, it provides advice on the questions consumers should ask in order to avoid being sold a defective or clocked car.
Check out the NCA's website for further information and to download the guide.
