Whether you’re a first-time buyer or a seasoned car hunter, these seven actionable tips will help you secure a deal that’s worth every ringgit. And here’s the bonus: by using the Motorist App, you can streamline the entire process, gaining expert insights into Malaysia's petrol prices, traffic fines, and tips to enhance your vehicle ownership journey.

Understand Market Demand and Pricing Trends 

The used car market is constantly changing, and knowing the trends is crucial for scoring the best deal. Keep an eye on the Motorist Malaysia platform to stay updated on average used car prices and find insights on seasonal price drops or adjustments.

Check Vehicle History

Avoid being blindsided by an “amazing” deal that hides a history of accidents or issues. With the Motorist App, you can easily access a vehicle’s history to ensure you’re not purchasing trouble in disguise.

Calculate Total Ownership Costs

Consider hidden expenses like maintenance, petrol prices, and insurance before settling on what seems like a “great” deal. Sometimes, a lower sticker price can come with high upkeep costs that are better left avoided.

Avoid Hidden Fees and Scams

It’s easy to fall victim to unexpected costs, from processing fees to dubious handling charges. The Motorist App offers tips to help you avoid these pitfalls, ensuring a safe and smooth transaction

Leverage Vehicle Traffic Fine understandings

Are you considering purchasing a car with outstanding fines? This could lead to issues. Use the Motorist App to check for any traffic fines associated with the vehicle to prevent penalties and headaches down the line.

Choose the Best Time to Buy

Used car prices can fluctuate based on supply and demand. Experts suggest waiting for optimal times, such as post-festive seasons or year-end sales, when many owners are looking to sell and prices typically drop.

Sell with Confidence

When it’s time to upgrade your vehicle, you’ll want to achieve the highest resale value. The Motorist App provides a free car valuation tool, helping you understand your car’s worth before listing it and protecting you from lowball offers.
