Warranty for used car

[Forummer]

Hi

 

Some advice needed. My brother in law is interested in getting a 6 yr old used jap car from a direct owner. Tested the car and the car was ok. Had it checked. Also ok.

 

Is it reasonable to expect the direct seller to provide him a 1 yr warranty on parts of engine and transmission? Get the direct seller to commit via a contract to provide him a warranty?

 

Pls advice. Cuz my brother in law is afraid the car will give problems in future.

Just ask yourself : will you give a year's warranty for the same item sold?

[Mrmilktooth]

your brother in-law got car to sell ... ? no need 12 months warranty ... i give discount ... 9 months can liao

 

come on la ... buy direct (cheaper right else why buy direct) and still want people to have sleepless nights for 12 months if car got problem ?

even new car ... just come out from showroom can also got problem hor within 1 week

and 6 years old car ... the likelihood to breakdown is even higher ... just buy cheap fair value and budget some money for wear and tear fixes ... buying 6 years old car is hweeng see ... may be good condition or next week breakdown liao ... similar buy a fairly new car at good value ... sekali got major accident repair

 

your bro in-law is the type of robert to be chopped by used car dealer ... no mercy

because of this kind of people, owner have to sell cheap to dealer and dealer chop your bro in-law carrot giving 1 year warranty .... when got problem ... dealer will ask him fly kite or simply don't answer the phone
