There are many great reasons to buy a used vehicle. A new car usually loses value within the first few years of ownership. So buying a car that’s a few years old could save you thousands of dollars, plus the value of a used vehicle depreciates less rapidly. In some cases, you may be able to purchase an upgraded version of a used car that you could not afford to buy new. This means you can enjoy top-of-the-line features for a fraction of the price.
Insurance and registration costs are lower for older cars, so you can save even more when buying a used vehicle. Due to its lower price, you may also save on dealership fees and sales tax. Typically, you can’t go wrong with a used car, as you can easily access its history report using modern technology. We even offer CARFAX 1 Owner vehicles where you can get a comprehensive record of all past owners and any accidents or damage to help you make the best buying decision.
When shopping for a used vehicle, looking for one with low mileage is best. You’ll also want to choose one with enough space to ensure the passengers’ comfort and the necessary cargo capacity for your gear. Below is a list of the best-used vehicles from each class.
Here are some popular used car models:

Looking for a suitable used vehicle doesn’t have to be stressful. At Bill Volz Westchester, we ensure that shopping for the perfect car, truck, or SUV is enjoyable. You may even find your perfect vehicle in our selection of certified pre-owned vehicles that have passed our extensive pre-certification process. Before you start looking at cars, you need to determine your budget. Remember that your monthly car payment isn’t the only expense of owning a vehicle. You’ll also have to include the car’s sales tax, registration, insurance, fuel, and maintenance costs.
Once you know your price range, you can list what you need in a vehicle. For example, if you plan to tow a trailer, you’ll want to look at trucks. You’ll want to consider an SUV if you’d like plenty of passenger space and four-wheel-drive capability. Knowing the type of car you need can save you time, as you’ll only look at cars that fit your lifestyle.
Knowing how to request a used vehicle’s history report is useful, as you can review it before deciding whether to buy a car. The history report will inform you of accidents or other issues involving the vehicle. To get the report, you only need a few details about the car and its vehicle identification number.
Many people choose to trade in their old car when it’s time to purchase a new one, even if the new vehicle is older. However, not everyone knows how to go about trading in their car. The process is simple when you work with the team at Bill Volz Westchester. Just provide us with your car’s make, model, and year, along with a few details about how it looks and drives, and we’ll study the information and provide you with a quote. We can move on to the next step if you think it’s a fair price.
Bring your car to our dealership, and let our staff thoroughly inspect it. After we finish reviewing it, we’ll give you our final offer. If you decide to accept it, we’ll proceed. You can put the money from the trade-in toward purchasing your used vehicle, or we can give you a check.
Although a used vehicle is less costly than a brand-new one, it can still be a big purchase. Most people take out an auto loan to help cover this large expense. If this is your case, our staff in the finance department will be happy to advise you. Our experience working with lenders allows us to get our customers the best auto loan deals. You can use our auto loan calculator tool to estimate what you will likely pay each month. Our online financing application can help you get the loan process started.
After we review your details, we’ll search for the loan terms and rates that best suit your financial situation. We’ll contact you to get any remaining information we need, after which you can come into our dealership to finalize your loan.
At Bill Volz Westchester, we go out of our way to ensure our customers get the vehicle of their choice. We offer a wide selection of used cars from a variety of automakers. This makes it easy to find a used vehicle, no matter your driving needs and preferences. Come and visit our dealership in Cortlandt, New York, today to see what we have in stock.
