5 Used or New Vehicle Purchasing Options

By Ethan Melandri

Researching what type of vehicle you want, what your budget is, and your finance options takes time, but once you have completed these steps you are closer to purchasing a new or used vehicle. The next step is locating the car you want so that you can go ahead and purchase it. There are numerous places you can look for the vehicle you want to determine what the better place is.

Main or Independent Dealers

When you are interested in a new or low mileage vehicle your best bet is to go to a main dealer for the buy. A main dealer tends to provide great service and understand your consumer rights. This means you get a vehicle that is in good shape, while you also are protected if something goes wrong. The downside is a dealer tends to be more expensive.

Older vehicles are best found at independent dealers. The service and quality will certainly vary on the place you go, so it is best to do a little research about the warranty terms and conditions before you go.

The Private Classifieds

Looking through the private classifieds can be a great way to find a bargain, however be careful as many unscrupulous sellers can be lurking in the pages, along with traders posing as private sellers.

You have fewer consumer rights when buying privately, so keep a copy of the advert as evidence of claims made by the owner and make sure the vehicle you are looking to buy is from the same address as listed on the V5, so you can find the seller again if anything goes wrong

Supermarkets for Automobiles

Supermarkets in which cars are sold are becoming more popular thus there are numerous places to go, probably close to your location. The prices at these places tend to be less, thus negotiation is unneeded. However, you get a lower trade in value for the car you currently have.

Since there is a lot of choice at these big markets you may find several models of the vehicle you are looking for, and they may have upgrades like xenon headlamps, alloy wheels, and air conditioning.

Vehicle Auction Sites

Auctions that sell cars have changed over the years to be better places to find a low mileage car. These vehicles are now offered with guarantees in case mechanical issues arise. Still, when buying from an auction consumer rights are less and while you can find a deal you need to check the vehicle for any issues before placing a bid.

The Internet

Many dealers have their own internet sites so that you can check the specification and pictures of the vehicle before setting off to see it. However the growth of internet auction sites like Ebay mean you can now buy a vehicle without first viewing it.

The feedback system on Ebay is a good way to gauge the reliability of the seller, so be wary of sellers with only a few or poor ratings. Remember though, that if you have the wining bid and the vehicle is accurately described, you will be legally obliged to buy it. - 21396

Cars That Can Run On Water

By Todd Foley

Cars that can run on water and eliminate the need for overpriced fuel! What's the secret? Its hydrogen gas extracted from gallons of water and fed to the motor as a gas to power the engine.

When hydrogen burns, it gives off water. The only thing coming out the tailpipe is hot air. It's all perfectly safe.

It would cost around $2000 to renovate your vehicle. It may be installed in your car, whatever type you have. Simply replace your fuel tank with the recovery system, add water and get ready to drive!

It costs about $2000. Will it fit in your car? Sure!

It is a great step if the technology can be "consumer friendly." Some fear that large oil and the U.S. automobile industry will never let happen. They have a lot to lose, mainly oil.

They will probably use industrial espionage to steal the idea and make their own profits. Other forms of energy for cars have been around for decades. This is not new.

Forms of energy will come about despite the power of the oil industry. Opponents argue that the main problem here is that you can not extract hydrogen fast enough to launch a car. You can run your car on water and you can quite easily use this concept to implement a hydrogen gas hybrid.

How can both sides be so divided? It seems quite likely because the water is already in petrol and diesel. It is very easy to extract tons of energy.

Water is much more effective than gas fuel. When you drive your car using the gas, most energy is lost as heat, pollution and vibration. In the car average, only 20% of the energy of gas is actually used by the engine.

The rest is wasted, and absorbed in the atmosphere (attacking the ozone layer and contribute to global warming). You would make use of electricity from the battery of your vehicle to convert water into a gas called HHO. In fact, with the HHO Atomic Energy of hydrogen, and chemical stability of water, you will reduce your carbon emissions. You will also get a lot more mileage. - 21396
