What are you looking for?
Buying a car can be a daunting task especially if it is your first car purchase. If you don’t know the price and how to get the best deal out of the seller, then you may end up paying too much or buying  car which is problematic!
4) When discussing a car that you are interested in, let the car dealer or sales person know that you have done your research on that car. Carefully check and appraise the car you are viewing. It is better to walk away the first day after you have seen the car to avoid being pushed by the salesman and to have time to think before jumping in to buy the car.

5) Timing play a role - a month's end is a good time to buy a car as dealers usually have targets to meet. Counter-seasonal car buying is good for car such as convertibles which can be cheaper in December than June.

6) Negotiate - firmly negotiate as much as you can but do not exceed you budget (note: if you have an old car worth below £2,000, you can take up the government scrappage scheme). Most dealers can include warranty as a deal sweetener. Check the car warranty in detail before signing to know what is covered.

7) Finance - only discuss finance after agreeing a price and aim to finance with the cheapest APR% Car loan.
There are a few simple things to consider when buying car, which should have you get a value for money car with a bit of money saving:

1) know what you want - the first thing to do before buying a car  is to figure out what car you want and what your absolute maximum budget is. Once done, stick to it.

2) Do you homework - once you have selected some cars (try to have more than one selected)  that you may consider buying do you research on HPI checks and valuation (mycarcheck.com and glass.co.uk are good for this).

3) Avoid trading in - Trading in your old car never gets you a good price. Try to avoid trade-ins at all costs.
