Honestly, there are no cheap cars for sale in Nepal. There are only ones that look cheap because they have either been modified to be so or they come ready to use but not looking brand new.

Buyers should be very careful when buying used cars for sale in Nepal as there is always the risk of being sold damaged goods, especially in the used car market that has no regulations or inspections.

They can do their own inspections of course but unless they are very good at it chances are they won't know the extent of how much work is needed to be done on the particular car until problems start coming up.

What to Buy?

Buyers can try looking for some discounts or special offers too, but again it's unlikely that there will be any significant ones available. A well-used

A well-used car dealer should be able to provide guidance with this though as they know all the tricks of the trade.

Buyers can also try asking for some discount on bulk purchases if they are buying more than one car at a time or buy cars regularly, but again chances are low that they will get big discounts this way.

Regular Inspection before Purchase

If possible, buyers should always arrange to check out the car themselves before buying it. They can take a friend who knows about cars and together they will know if the car is in good condition or not.

Buyers should be very careful about checking out the engine of the car as engines are often tampered with to hide damage, so sellers may lie about it too.

Also, they can also ask for a few trials runs in the car and if they like it, go ahead and buy it. Buyers should not be afraid of asking many questions to the seller and even trying to negotiate some price.

Buyers will get the best deal when they know what is wrong with the car and can use that information to bargain for lower prices or extra freebies.

Useful tips when searching for a used car online:

1. Buy from a legit dealership or private seller

If the deal sounds good, it often is! Buyers can research on their own for businesses that sell quality used cars and get referrals from family and friends, or they can ask car dealerships for recommendations.

2. Buy from a country you trust

Buyers can base their purchases on familiarity with the country of origin and the source (i.e. dealer) of the vehicle.

Similarly, they should try to avoid buying from private sellers if possible as it's hard to trust them and there have been cases of criminals posing as private sellers.

Buyers should also try to buy from a country they trust as this increases the chances that they will get a high-quality vehicle.

Also, theymay take more risks if they are buying from countries other than Nepal, but should still take precautions and do their research first.

3. Research on car models and manufacturers

Buyers can visit a car manufacturer's website and read/watch reviews of the vehicle models they are interested in. Buyers will have a good idea of what to expect from the model after going through these resources.

Buyers should also try searching for common problems that exist with their desired car model and find out how much fixing them costs. Buyers should look for cars that are more reliable and will lower their chances of having to spend a lot on repairs.

4. Inspect the car documents

Buyers should check if all the necessary paperwork is present by visiting the seller's place in person. Buyers can ask questions about the shipping process too, as this is important for some countries.

They should also have a proper inspection on the person they are buying from online, if possible. Buyers can ask car dealerships for help with this too.

5. Check out if it has been in an accident

Buyers can visit an inspection station and get this done before buying the car or take it to a mechanic themselves. Buyers can also ask the seller of the car for details of any accidents that it has been in.

Buyers should get this checked out properly if they do not trust what is said by sellers about accident history. Buyers can get their own mechanic to check out the car before purchase too but may need evidence from the seller beforehand.

6. Check on the general condition of the car

Buyers should check for dents, rust, and scratches on the exterior of their car. Buyers should also look at the upholstery, which can show signs of wear.

Buyers should note that some cars may have old upholstery but are in excellent condition otherwise so they will need to judge accordingly.

Buyers should also check the tires for any damage. Buyers can ask mechanics to do a pre-purchase inspection if they think this will give them relief but must be prepared to pay for it.

Buyers may also want to see if the car has had an oil change recently and how many kilometers it has done so far. Buyers will also likely need proof of how many kilometers the car has done. Buyers can research on their own for this information, or ask the seller about it directly.

7. Buy with knowledgeable friends

Buyers should take some family and friends who know a lot about cars to help them if they are not knowledgeable about used car shopping so that they have some informed people with them.

Buyers can ask car dealerships for recommendations of mechanics who are familiar with the type of car they want so they can get it checked out.

Buyers should also have some knowledge about cars before buying one so that they are better equipped to handle negotiations and sales pitches from sellers.

8. Buy a used car -

Buyers should think twicebefore investing in a new car because used cars are often as good as new ones. Buyers will have to pay much less for a used car and can find high-quality models easily this way too.

Buyers can also get discounts if they work with dealerships that sell both new and used vehicles.
