How Not to Buy Cars

The bottom line is take a breath and think about what you are doing. Buying a car is the second most expensive decision you will make in your life.

 

Ever tried to buy a car but everything went wrong? Have you ever done any of these?

1. Fall in love with a car that you know is wrong for you but buy it anyway

2. Talking yourself into spending more money than you can afford on monthly payments. An objective decision becomes an “I need it“ decision.

3. Starting a new job in Dubai and spending all your salary on an expensive car. It is better to buy something cheap until you settle in.

4. Buying a car because it was a really “good deal”. You get what you pay for.

5. Don’t think about what you really need. Ever heard of someone buying a Porsche that doesn’t tow boats?
