Before you buy from a dealer
Buying in British Columbia
Dealers must be licensed by the Vehicle Sales Authority of BC. A licensed dealer has to disclose material facts about a car, including damage above a set dollar amount, and the Motor Dealer Customer Compensation Fund can cover buyers in some cases where a dealer does not.
Wherever you buy
Get a vehicle history report and a lien check before you pay — a car sold with money owing on it can be repossessed from the new owner. Ask for an independent pre-purchase inspection; a dealer that refuses one is telling you something. And compare the all-in price, not the monthly payment.
Selling instead?
A trade-in is one offer from one dealer. Get several instead: pick the Kamloops dealers you'd sell to, send them your car in one message from your own email, and compare what comes back. Know your car's value first, so you can tell a good offer from a lowball.
