When buying a used car, there are a few things you should check in order to make sure you are satisfied with it and that it will meet your expectations. This includes checking the exterior and interior for any signs of damage in the form of scratches, scrapes, dents, rust, corrosion, tears, rips, and holes, as well as making sure things like the tyres and windscreen wipers are in good working order. This will involve a visual inspection of the car before you take it for a test drive. Read our guide to buying a used car for a checklist of things to inspect on your visit to the dealership.

Vertu offer a 14 day money back guarantee across all used cars. If you're not totally satisfied with your used car, you can return it within 14 days for a full refund. Terms and conditions apply.

It varies depending on the manufacturer. When you buy a used car, the warranty will be explained to you if the vehicle is still under a specific manufacturer's warranty. You can also find information on the warranty in the documentation provided with your vehicle.

If you are buying a used car, it's important to remember you have rights. There are several laws in place protecting you as the consumer, which are: - Consumer Rights Act 2015 - This protects you in almost any purchase you make, including both new and used cars. The Act states that any car bought from an official dealer should be of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose, and as described. It also gives you the right to reject a vehicle within the first 30 days if it does not meet these standards, and for you to be given either a repair, replacement, or refund. - Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 - Dealerships must comply with these regulations which prohibit them from unfair business practices, such as giving false information or insufficient information about the vehicle, acting aggressively in order to make a sale, failing to meet reasonable expectations of what is acceptable, and engaging in specific banned practices like claiming a vehicle will only be available for a limited time to make a sale. Whether you buy a used car at the dealership or online, your rights will remain the same and they are there to make sure that you are sold a safe, road-worthy vehicle that meets your standards and expectations and is sold to you at a price that reflects its age and mileage.

Taxing a used car is the same as taxing a new one. The GOV.UK website sets out how to tax your vehicle, stressing that you must tax your vehicle even if you are exempt from paying road tax due to a disability, or driving an electric vehicle. You can do this easily online, with the help of your vehicle log book (V5C) or the green owner slip you received with the vehicle. Tax your vehicle in minutes here
