How to Maximize Your Trade-In Value
Are you considering trading-in your vehicle at Go Auto Outlet? Follow these maintenance tips before coming in, and get the highest amount for your used vehicle.
Gather Your Maintenance Records
The best way to demonstrate your vehicle was cared for is to prove it with maintenance records. Regular oil changes, fluid top-ups, and preventative maintenance goes a long way to extend vehicle life. Records also show us which regular maintenance interval repairs are out of date, such as water pumps and belt replacements. At Go Auto Outlet, we like to buy and sell the best quality vehicles. Use accurate records to show us what makes your vehicle great, and we’ll pay the highest possible amount for your trade-in!
Clean the Vehicle
Have you ever seen a dirty vehicle sold at a dealership? That’s because dirty vehicles look less valuable than clean ones, and a clean vehicle denotes a careful owner. So clean your vehicle, or stop by our Wash ‘N Go detailing service, to present the best looking image of your car.
Fix It Up
Just like a dirty car, auto body damage reflects poorly on the owner. Small dents can be inexpensively hammered out, and a proper buff and polish can remove scratches. No one wants to buy an ugly vehicle, so make your exterior sparkle before coming by.
Replace Wear Items
A number of components degrade over the lifetime of your vehicle . Items like filters, brake pads, and fluids need to be maintained or else they may eventually damage non-wear items. Replace these items to save us the work and cost of repair, and you’ll maximize your return!
