Enjoy the Luxury of a Top Brand Car at a Pocket-Friendly Price

Next time when you plan to buy a used car, consider buying one with a salvage title. I know you find that this a bit irrational, however, buying a salvage car actually makes sense if you are careful in choosing. The major advantage is affordability. It can be particularly beneficial for students who cannot afford to buy a new car. There are millions of cars available for sale by auction on the market. Some salvage titled cars are okay to purchase and others are a wreck. Therefore, you should keep a discerning eye on what you are buying. For this, you need to know some important facts about salvage title cars.

How does a car get a salvage title?

A car is not always titled salvage because of an accident. There are many other reasons which lead to a vehicle getting the “salvage” Title. Here is a list:

Natural Disaster – When natural disasters like earthquakes and hurricanes take a toll on vehicles, they can be salvaged.

Theft Recovery – A vehicle lost by theft and not found for a period of time, if later recovered, can be given a salvage title. This generally happens when the insurance provider has already settled the claim of the owner and the vehicle is recovered later.

Bank Repossessed Vehicles – When owners of a car are unable to make the monthly payments, the bank repossesses the vehicle. In order to recover the money on the vehicle, it is sold at an auction.

What to avoid when buying a Salvage Car?

Never purchase a vehicle that is damaged by water or that has a bent frame. Water damaged cars should always be avoided because its electrical parts are badly affected by water and cause permanent damage.

Damage to a car’s frame cannot be recovered. Once a car gets a bent frame, this could lead to a serious problem of safety.

An online auto auction is the best way to buy a salvage car. Go online and search for a reputable auction portal as this can help you make the best deal. Online bidding on salvage cars saves you time and energy. If your bid turns out to be the highest, the vehicle will be shipped to you. Take advantage of the online salvage auctions as it allows you to buy a salvage vehicle without being present at a salvage yard.

Go Online for the Mustang You Have Always Wanted to Own

Like millions of other car enthusiasts, I have always wanted to drive the best car on the block! Ever since I started working full-time, I have used my own car. My first was a 2000 Ford Escort, which I purchased from my neighbor. The car delivered much more than what was expected of it initially! However, moving in to my current home in Fort Worth, TX, I decided to get myself another car.

Ford was my obvious choice of brand due to my love for the automotive giant’s technology; and I bought my 2009 used Mustang at a car auction. The car was literally purchased while sitting on my living room couch!

A good number of reasons led me to choose a Mustang:

  • Affordability and Reliability – Mustangs were never designed to be exotic supercars, and they are not! However, they assure you the best value for your money.
  • One brand, many needs – The brand has a model to suit car lovers’ need. Whether you like the top down or a convertible; if you want power on a budget, Mustang is the model to go for! If racing is your passion, buying a Mustang is a safe bet.
  • Highly customizable – You can transform the exteriors or make use of aftermarket parts for the car that are easily available. Start your new project on a Mustang; you will love remodeling the car as per your needs.
  • A great car, off-tracks too – Why do you think Jerry Titus, John Force, or Parnelli Jones drove Mustangs heavily in their racing careers? Well, do you need any more reasons to drive a car that was made by Ford?
  • Fun to drive – If you have been lucky enough to experience cruising in a Mustang, you will know the joy of it! In case you have not done that yet, try it on a weekend to enjoy an exhilarating drive.

Buying my car this time turned out to be a cakewalk. I was looking for a good used car by Ford. My brother Jim suggested a popular online auction website that listed used cars. It was amazing to see thousands of vehicles of all types from innumerable locations in one place – my laptop!

A quick (and free) registration on the auction website was followed by an online security deposit, making me eligible to bid. I shortlisted a couple of cars and checked their details using the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and the clear images.

As luck would have it, the simple online bidding led to a live auction where reps of the website represented my bid. Finally, the Mustang was mine at about $8,400; which was way below its market price. The car had some damage, but nothing that could not be fixed.

I had a great experience buying my car though an online car auction. It is easy, safe and exciting! Next time you want to buy a vehicle, just turn to the internet.
