Buying a car these days can be very difficult. Today there is big variety of cars that attracts you, and makes you wanting to spend your money on purchasing used car. In the article, the author talked about an important tips and procedures that anyone must follows in order to purchase a used car, one of the most important things to check before buying a used car is the car’s title because without this document you can’t transfer the car to your name, and you won’t be able to drive it, or even sale it which is the author didn’t talk about in this article. The author also forgot to write some other important steps such as scammers, fraud, and roll back odometer devices. These devices can change the mileage of the car’s odometer , and the reason why some people do that is to increases the value of the car, you can’t identified whether the car odometer is original, or rolled back unless you check the papers, and title of the car. I believe that the article was helpful, but not fully equipped with all the information that the buyer needs to buy a used car.
