When it comes to shopping for pre-owned cars, not all are created equal. When you factor luxury into the equation, things can get even more complicated. Let’s take a look at some things to look out for when shopping for a pre-owned luxury vehicle.\

Mileage

While some shoppers think they should always choose the vehicle with lowest number of miles on the odometer, this isn’t always the case.

While low-mileage vehicles are oftentimes in better shape than higher-mileage ones, high-mileage used vehicles can still provide quality driving experiences. As long as the vehicle has been well-maintained, a higher mileage isn’t much of a concern.

Year

Both technicians and enthusiasts alike will tell you that certain model years of a vehicle’s time on the market are better than others. Model years that don’t offer certain features or performance details sought by buyers will be less desirable on the used market.

Performing some model research as you shop can determine which model years to ignore because they don’t offer features you need, and which model years might be a bargain.

Luxury Pre-Owned Car Maintenance Costs

Luxury cars often cost more to operate than value vehicles. Even routine services like an oil change can be very expensive with premium materials. This is especially true for pre-owned models, whose maintenance costs only increase as the years go by.

Be sure to do your research on your cost of ownership before you decide what model to buy.
