    when buying 2nd hand/pre owned car, what is the best route?
    1. buy direct from the seller?
    2. buy from the bank (repo)?
    3. buy from those engage in buy & sell?


    i'm more incline buying from those engage in buy & sell, since the cars (papers) were already screened. plus they give some kind of warranty. what do you think?

    What are the red flags when buying pre owned car?

    Buy from a friend or a relative... or someone who you're familiar with, para at least alam mo kung pano niya ginamit yung kotse and/or alam mo kung binaha sa place niya.

    Best pa rin bumili from direct sellers. They usually carry the well-maintained vehicles. Pero mamimili ka pa rin. Get from the people who has more than one vehicle, para hinde masyadong abused yung binebenta. Scout the place where he lives para alam mo kung ok dun & hinde bahain.

    Repo is ok, pero tendency usually niyan as is where is. So kung na-repo ng may sira.. ganun nalang. And usually repoed cars are abused. Kahit na ba 10k mileage eh kung sa 10k na yung sobra abuse naman diba.

    Buy & sell, depende eh... pero sobra onti percentage ng ok na buy & sell. Lahat usually may mileage na inatras at pinagmukhang maganda pero after 1wk wala na..

    bring your qualified mekaniko/technician to look into the 2nd hand car before buying it.
