The used car market did not escape the impact of the pandemic either. For lockdown, they are sold during the first months of 2021, first slowing down, and then running at full speed after opening operations. New records were set in the number of units sold in car bazaars. Increased demand for used cars and lower supply will also be reflected in their prices. According to sellers the prices of the best-selling vehicles increased by 5 to 10 percent. Are you also thinking about buying a used car? In addition to traditional options, one novelty awaits you.

It is safe if, for example, you have a trusted friend who moves your vehicle on. Otherwise it cante during such a bath quite bump. If a bazaare they have A relatively sophisticated system on the usual good offers, while cars remain in a worse condition in private offers. People travel to Slovakia many times and eventually find out that their dream vehicle is in such a worse condition than they expected and saw in the photos. Not to mention legal risks, such as unpaid leasing or foreclosure.
The second option is to buy in a car bazaar. At first glance, it seems that you have several cars that you can directly compare and try. In fact, there are a limited number of cars in the bazaar, so need they often compromise on requirements and compromise. In addition withthere is a risk that you will buy a cat in a bag, so to speak. It is not possible to camouflage any car bazaar operator so that it is very difficult for an inexperienced motorist to recognize them. The price of a vehicle from the bazaar will probably be higher than if you bought it directly from a private individual.
