How to Choose Used Car Dealerships in Pretoria and Gauteng


A lot of people feel uncomfortable when they need to buy a second-hand vehicle. For those living in Pretoria, finding a reliable used-car dealership from amongst the many in the area can be a challenge. Here are some tips on how to find the most trustworthy used-car dealerships in Pretoria:

·         Know what you want: It helps to know what type of vehicle you want, what model year it should be, and what your budget is. Check to see what the vehicle you want usually goes for and work out whether you have enough cash (or access to financing) before deciding. Rather spend money on an older model with a low mileage than going over budget by buying a newer vehicle with a high mileage. When you walk onto the shop floor, you need to know what you are looking for because this makes choosing the right vehicle a lot easier.

·         Do some homework: Because there are so many used-car dealerships in Pretoria to choose from, you need to do research on which ones suit your needs best. The Internet provides a lot of information and reviews on these companies and you can gain insights into how the company operates, how long it has been in business, and who their clients are. It also helps to ask around – if you have a friend who has recently purchased a vehicle from a used-car dealership in Pretoria, ask their advice. Research the reputation of the dealership, ask for references, and choose a few dealerships in your area. Local dealerships can be better because, if something goes wrong, or if the vehicle needs repairs or servicing, they are close by. Choose a list of around five dealerships and visit their showrooms to look at the vehicles that you prefer and that fall within your budget. On Atterbury Motors’ website, you will find a section on testimonials that vouch for the trustworthiness and helpfulness of the company.

·         Consider customer service: While everybody can be friendly and helpful while they are trying to sell you something, you have to determine how they act after the sale has been concluded. This is where references come in. Reputable dealerships will usually belong to certain standards associations and legislative bodies, while the ones to be wary of don’t have any kind of certification – or validation of their after-sales service. Also look into their finance options, the quality of the vehicles they sell, and the reliability and responsiveness to their clients once the vehicle has been sold.

Once you have visited a few dealerships in Pretoria and seen the vehicles they sell, you are ready to choose your preferred used-car dealership. If they do not have the vehicle you want, a good dealership will source it for you! Top dealerships will deal with all the paperwork and registration details, and this will save you a lot of time and money.

Browsing amongst all the pre-owned cars for sale can be confusing. There are so many cars and dealerships to choose from and it can be difficult to decide whether to buy a vehicle from a private individual or a dealership. Most people in the industry would argue that a dealership is preferable because they perform checks, registrations, roadworthiness tests, and other services as part of the deal. At Atterbury Motors, we pride ourselves on the great service we offer our customers – and it does not stop the moment you have paid your money and drove the car from our showroom floor. You have all the assurances afforded you under the Consumer Protection Act and we will even buy your current car – or trade it in for one of ours.

Why Consider Atterbury Motors When Looking at the Pre-Owned Cars for Sale in Pretoria

Because we offer finance from all the prominent financial services providers such as Absa, WesBank, and Standard Bank, we have to adhere to a strict regimen of rules and transparency regulations when it comes to the pre-owned cars we offer for sale. We ensure that your application for finance is processed quickly and accurately, and we take the time to discuss any financial obligations with you to ensure that there are no unpleasant surprises. Because we are aligned with these standards, we are also in a position to provide you with additional cover, which includes insurance, a deposit protector, mechanical guarantees, and roadside assistance. We do not treat a customer like a number, but as a valued individual whose return business we want.

The sales consultants we employ are selected not only for their great customer service, but also for their ethical standards, transparency, and honesty. Our customer service, in particular, is superb and we pride ourselves on the good name we have built over the years. We also belong to the independent Blue Chip Dealers network to ensure that our customers get the service and support they need – even after the sale has been concluded. We will even process claims and repairs on your behalf where warranties are still valid. We also perform the necessary roadworthy testing on the pre-owned cars we offer for sale and we take great care in detailing them before selling them. This includes the removal of minor dings and scratches.
