Buying and selling Cars in Eastbourne

Buying or selling cars on Adsquare in Eastbourne? A little care up front saves a lot of hassle later.

The private market moves fast, but that's no reason to skip the basics. A genuine seller is usually happy to answer questions, provide extra photos, or let you bring someone along to view the vehicle. If a seller pressures you to decide quickly, won't allow a proper look over, or asks for payment before you've seen it in person, treat that as a reason to walk away rather than a reason to hurry.

• Meet in a well-lit, public place for cash exchanges, or use a bank transfer with the seller present.
• Get anything agreed verbally - price, included extras, condition - confirmed in writing before you pay.
• Be wary of prices well below market value - it's the most common sign of a stolen or cloned vehicle.
• For private sales, remember there's no consumer protection in the way there is buying from a dealer - inspect thoroughly.
