Autos › How To Buy A Used Car In Nigeria – The Ultimate Step-by-step Guide by omokenny94a(op): 11:09am On May 30, 2019

Step 1- Set a Budget

Before thinking of buying a car, it is very important for you to consider how much you earn. Your monthly income is a very key factor that will determine if you’ll be able to maintain any car you’ve decided to buy. Do not make the mistake of buying a costly car you wouldn’t be able to maintain or buying a way too cheap car that will cost you a lot to maintain.

Step 2- Find Out The History of The Car

Even though it may be very difficult to get the actual history of a car from the seller who may be protecting their interest, it’s very crucial that you find this fact before closing the transaction. Find out how long the car has been used for and if it has suffered an accident by watching out for bumper cracks, repainting, windshield, panel and door gaps, car’s body lines as well as any sign that the vehicle has been worked on. Alternatively, you can get the Vehicle Identification Number on the driver’s door and go and check it on AutoCheck or CARFAX to get a free vehicle history report to know all about the car you’re buying.

Step 3- Research The Seller

Our duty at CarCentre.com is to bring buyers and sellers together to ensure a smooth transaction, but to be on a safer side, we strongly recommend that you know whom you’re dealing with before making any payment.

Step 4- Get a Well-known Brand and Model

In order to avoid spare parts issues when your car needs repair, consider buying a car that has parts that are easily accessible and affordable.

Step 5- Take a Mechanic Along

A good and honest Mechanic will let you know if the car is in good shape or not. Take one along with you to know what he thinks.

Autos › How To Do Transfer Of Ownership After Buying A Used Car by omokenny94a(op): 2:51pm On May 06, 2019

At the course of getting your car, there are some paperwork and forms you need to fill out in order to transfer the ownership of the vehicle. When buying your car from a licensed used-car dealer, your paperwork will be taken care of by the dealer. It’s not the same when buying from a private seller. Ensure you get the right documentation to avoid problems or issues.

So, you’re buying your new car but do not know the necessary steps to take in order to make the vehicle your personal property. Well, it’s easy. Follow the guidelines below and you’ll have no course to worry again.

Get a Roadworthiness Certificate
A Roadworthiness Certificate is valid for only 21 days but it is very essential when registering your vehicle. The Roadworthiness Certificate can be gotten at any vehicle testing station around you. Documents like ID (Identification Document), Vehicle’s registration Certificate, associate fee and completed form of Application for Roadworthiness Certificate (ACR).

Sign The Sales Agreement
Though a sales agreement is not obligatory, it is very crucial to have it in order to have proof and address issues that may arise with confidence. Existing faults should be stated in the sales agreement for the purposes of the Consumer Protection Act.

Get Your Car Insured
Before making a vehicle your own, ensure to take out a comprehensive insurance policy that you can easily afford. This is important because the seller of the vehicle would have cancelled the former insurance to free themselves of liability once the vehicle has been sold.

Get a Notification of Change of Ownership
The Department of Transport should be notified of the change in address and ownership details when you become the new owner of a vehicle. The Notification of Change of Ownership form must be filled by the seller before you re-register the vehicle.

Get Your Car Registered
After carrying out the actions in 1-4, the next thing is for you or the seller to visit a vehicle registration authority close to you in order to register your new car in your name. Go with the aforementioned documents- that is, your Identification Document, Roadworthy Certificate, Sales Agreement or Receipt, up-to-date and valid motor vehicle license, application fee and the completed form for registering and licencing a motor vehicle.
