How to find your next perfect car


Finding the perfect car for you can be tricky. There are many things to consider. Size, practicality, price,safety features, insurance, and what you'd do with your current car.

Chorley Group always wants to make buying a new car an easy and simple process, so you have the most enjoyable experience. Here are some tips to help you find the perfect car for you.

Consider your lifestyle: Your lifestyle plays a big role in determining the type of car that will suit your needs the most. Have a long think about your needs such as how long your commute is, how much space you need (if you go on long trips or have a large family), and if you prioritise comfort or something sportier.

Determine your budget. It’s important to know how much you can afford for a new car. This could be either cash price (if you’re buying the car outright) or monthly costs you can afford (if you are doing a PCP or a HP). Consider your income, expenses, and savings to determine a realistic budget for your new car.

Consider insurance: always consider your insurance costs when buying a vehicle due to the cost depending on various factors such as driving history, type of car, colour, and engine size. This will be an expense on top of your budget for the car. You can check on comparative websites to find the best offer for you.

Create a ‘top picks’ list: research all different types of vehicles, models, and makes to find the cars you like the most. Once you’ve found ones you like, create a list with them and rank them with things you like and dislike from each model e.g. safety features. This will help you narrow down on your perfect car.

Test drive your ‘top picks’: once you’ve found the cars that you’re interested in, schedule a test drive to see how they feel on the road and if you like driving them. Every car drives/ handles differently so it’s important to try before you buy. Pay attention to the handling, acceleration, comfort, and braking to make sure that you enjoy driving the car.

Choosing your next car is a personal and exciting journey that requires careful research and consideration. Remember to take your time, test drive different cars, and inspect them thoroughly before buying. With a little patience and perseverance, you can make sure you purchase the right car for you.
