Selling A
Used Car
The problem with buying a
used car is that you almost al-
ways have to sell your old one.
And by definition, your old car
is in worse condition that the
one you bought!
What to do?
* Clean it up! Regardless of
how you decide to dispose of the
car (short of abandonment—
this is the first step.
Inside and out, give it the
bath of its life. Tighten all those
loose bolts that have been dri-
ving you nuts. If the engine's a
mess, you might even invest in
a steam cleaning. Empty the

* To fix or not to fix? Minor
things can make a big differ-
ence. If it can be fixed easily
and cheaply, it's worth doing.
Many a perfectly good car
didn't sell because a fan belt
squeaked.
But major repairs are almost
never worth doing; they'll cost
more that you can increase the
price to pay for.
* Advertise! Don't just put a
for sale sign in the window.
Look for trade papers that spe-
cialize in classified ads. Or you
can put an ad in the local
newspaper.
In papers with millions of
ads, you need to stand out. Un-
less the car is twisted junk, con-
sider spending a little more to
have a photograph printed.
This will draw people's eyes to
your ad and away from the gen-
eral herd.
* Know what it's worth. Be
honest with yourself when pric-
ing the car but also be knowl-
edgeable enough to be fair with
yourself.
If you can't figure out the val-
ue by checking the "Blue Book"
price, take the car to several
lots for appraisals. That way,
you won't price yourself out of
the market and you will also be
confident enough not to let
yourself be beaten down in ne-
gotiations. ❑
