• Check the car for damage: It’s always a good idea to check the car for any signs of damage such as scratches, body paint issues or anything else like that. If you do find something, make sure to take pictures of it so that you can’t be charged extra.
• Know what you’re paying for: sometimes you may see an offer that looks too good to be true, it’s probably because it is! A lot of times, an offer can appear cheap but there are actually hidden costs so be aware of exactly what you're paying for.
• Pack a Sat-Nav: It’s a good idea to have a sat-nav packed if you’re ever lost, you can simply find your way around the area. It also helps you to save money as you don’t have to use your mobile data for directions.
