A WARRINGTON car retailer is offering expert advice for car buyers looking to make the most of the new registration plate launch this September.
It is said to be one of the most strategic times to buy and to help motorists take advantage of dealer incentives, updated models and increased availability Rybrook Warrington id offering advice on how to navigate a new vehicle purchase with confidence.
1. Going electric
”You should determine, before purchasing, if you want to get an at-home charging point fitted, which is beneficial as charging overnight is the most practical and cost-effective way to charge your car fully.
“It is important to consider charging availability and there are currently more than 76,000 public charging points across the UK, including more than 15,000 rapid or ultra-rapid charging points. There are also plenty of apps, to show you the best local charging points or those along your journey.
2. Is the model suitable for your lifestyle?
“When choosing a new car, many drivers are overwhelmed by the different options available – but ultimately, it’s important to prioritise the features that are most suitable for your lifestyle. Do you need a compact vehicle suitable for city trips, or is comfort key due to frequent long-distance travel? Do you need ample storage space in the boot to suit family life, or is the aesthetic your key focus?
“If you are someone who drives frequently and perhaps has long commutes to work, you will need to take into account the size of the car, as the larger the car, the larger the battery, and if you would prefer to charge an electric vehicle or perhaps prefer a hybrid car.”
3. Know your budget
“It is important you have a clear budget in mind, so the retailer can assist you in finding a car that suits all your needs for a price that is feasible.
“We can also help determine what will be the most cost-effective in the long run. An electric car may cost more upfront but tends to be more cost-effective in the long run due to lower fuel, tax and maintenance costs.
“While electric cars do still need annual MOT checks this is generally a pain-free experience, with exhaust emissions tests being a thing of the past.”
4. See the car in person
“To make sure you are confident in the decision you are making, going to see the car in person is important, especially if you are torn between a few options. It can help clarify what you are looking for and what is most suitable for you.
“Our experts will be on hand to help, explain certain features and the benefits, as well as help you understand what might work best with your lifestyle. We can take the stress out of a sometimes daunting situation and make it a fun and enjoyable one.”
