As the Christmas celebrations draw closer, it is expected that many Nigerians will want to celebrate the season by showing off with a new car, especially for those buying it for the first time. However, there are certain things you need to be aware of and mull over in your mind; else you end up being cheated and not getting satisfaction for your money. Here are some tips compiled by our correspondent and they are meant to guide you in buying that your preferred vehicle without regret.

Make Up Your Mind before Stepping Out
First of all, you need to make up your mind on the kind of car you want to buy, as a family man with a wife and children, you will need to consult your wife before stepping out to the market, experts have said that auto dealers are capable of persuading you and you will end up buying something contrary to your initial plan. As somebody buying a vehicle for the first time, consider your budget as well as your partners opinion because once a car is sold to a customer, it becomes a member of that family.

Stand Your Ground
It is important to note that at the auto shop, many of the attendants are sweet talkers, don’t allow their sweet talks to divert your attention from the original plan you have in mind, you must not compromise, last minute change of mind can lead to regrets later.

Endeavour To Take Your Mechanic Along   
As a result of the technicalities involved in identifying a car with a sound engine and the general workings of the car which you might not know about, it is only your mechanic that can give you the reasons why you should or should not buy a particular vehicle, therefore it is advised that you take a reliable mechanic along.

Always Consider Second Hand Market Value Of Your Choice.
Always put this factor into consideration because there is the tendency that you might want to re-sell that particular car after a while in order to upgrade your personality or as a result of the size of the family. Therefore, buy a vehicle that is in high demand by Nigerians so that whenever the need arise to sell off your car as fairly used; it will not be difficult to do that.

Sample Peoples Opinion about Your Choice
It is also good that you sample the opinion of your friends, colleagues or family members on what they think about the brand of car you wish to but, they might have used that type of vehicle or the brand before and so their advice to you will go a long way, but no matter the comments passed at the end of the day, the decision is yours to make.
