If you are in the used car buying market, chances are good that you have been very careful about looking around at what used cars are currently on the market. You may have even drawn up a budget in order to determine what kind of used car in Calgary that you can really afford to buy. No matter what kind of used car you’re in the market for, we are here to help you get the best rates and used car packages for your needs.

Here are 3 things we think you need to do before you buy a used car in Calgary:

Make a list

Make a list - and check it twice - of all of the things that you need and want from your used car. This list should include the things that you can’t compromise on, such as space, reliability, and features that you definitely need. The list can also include those things that are wants, such as leather, a sunroof, GPS system, and more. By having this list in hand, you’ll be able to make a better assessment when looking over available used cars in order to determine what cars suit the items on your list.

Develop a budget

Having a used car buying budget is important. When you have a budget, you know that the used cars you look at will need to fall within that budget. Then, when you go to buy a used car, you can be certain that the used car you end up buying actually suits you budget. Making a practical budget can be challenging for everyone - especially when it’s tough to predict what will happen in the future with your job and the economy. Our financial experts are standing by to help you develop your budget and come up with a financial plan that will make it possible for you to easily afford to buy your car, so fill out our online credit application.
Inspect the car

When buying a used car in Calgary, it is essential that you inspect the used car. During your inspection, it is important that you not only take a look at the exterior and overall look of the car, but you’ll also want to look at the engine and structure of the car.

 At Big 4 Motors we inspect all used cars that we put on the lot. We also offer a warranty to cover issues that happen down the road! Contact us today at www.big4motors.com

You’ve probably already heard (or read) that there are a wide variety of reasons for purchasing a used car from a dealer. Not only do dealers offer protection plans on most used cars in Calgary, but they also offer a wide variety of selection that you will simply not get from a private seller.

If you are in the market for a used car, then check out these three great new reasons to get your next used car  in Calgary from Big 4 Motors, your Calgary Chrysler Dealer:

Resources to Update Your GPS

Many used cars come with built-in GPS systems. However, if you buy a used car that is several years old, the GPS system will most likely be out-dated. Each year, GPS map manufacturers add the latest retail shops, roads, and other data to GPS systems so that the systems stay up to date. If you purchase a used car with an out-dated GPS system, your dealer can connect you with the resources necessary to update your system. In most cases, your dealer can make the updates for you while you wait.

Exceptional Service

Dealerships thrive off of their customer service records. For that reason, most dealerships, such as ours, work hard to maintain a relationship with each of our customers even after they have purchased their cars. In order to maintain this relationship, many dealers, such as us, will send out reminder cards when you need service on your vehicle, we’ll let you know when your vehicle needs to be inspected, and we may just follow up from time to time to find out how your experience with your used car is going. Our relationships keep us going, so we work hard to maintain and improve them long after you’ve left the lot.

Service History

When you buy a car from a dealer, you’ll not only be establishing a relationship with the dealer, but you’ll also be establishing a service history. This service history will help to ensure that we know and record everything about your vehicle - from accidents that it’s been in to other small service-related items. By keeping a record of vehicle service, we will always ensure that your vehicle is safe and reliable for you to drive. Plus, we’ll have a good idea of what service items you may need in the near future and we can point those out to you.
