Top-Quality Used Cars for Sale from Atterbury Motors
Some of South Africa’s most
popular pre-owned car retailing platforms have over 60 000 used cars
for sale at any given moment. Pre-owned vehicles are certainly big business
in South Africa, especially in view of the prohibitive price of admission to
the new-car market. It seems like just the other day that we could still buy an
entry-level Chinese hatchback for less than R100 000 but at the beginning
of 2020, reality dictates that the cheapest new passenger car costs in excess
of R140 000 – and this price will be well and truly outdated, given
another year.
Which is why so many of the used
cars for sale today are such stellar value for money. Taking our
turn-of-the-decade base-model price point of R140 000, we find that, for the
same money, you can buy a far more upmarket, safer, more prestigious, and more
luxurious pre-owned vehicle, and you don’t even have to settle for an ancient
one with hundreds of thousands of kilometres on the odometer. If you don’t mind
opting for an older model and you keep sensible tabs on the mileage, you can
bag yourself a high-value European sports sedan with all the bells and whistles
for this type of price and little more than 100 000 km on the “clock”.
Of course, not all used cars
for sale in the classifieds offer similar value for money when bought second-hand
and you have to do your homework to see what similar models cost out there and
what is a reasonable price to pay. As a rule of thumb, the country’s
top-selling new models will also hold onto their value best when bought used.
You might end up paying more for your popular model used, but this does not
have to be a deal-breaker because it will continue to retain its value well and
if you care for it properly, you will again be able to sell it at a great
price. Conversely, you can buy one of the more obscure brands that lose value
fast and drive away with incredible value for money, simply because you paid so
little for it.
Peace of Mind
The problem with these obscure used
cars for sale at low-low prices is that you might be apprehensive about
