Looking for his very first car!
Your child is about to turn 18 - it’s hard to believe he is an adult now! It seems like just yesterday that you held him in your arms for the first time, but that already was 18 years ago. Time really does fly! The only thing that matters for him at the moment is to pass his driving licence and buy his first car.
What about surprising your teen by buying him his first car?
“When you love, you don't count the cost," so the saying goes. That may be true in theory, but in practice things are a bit more complicated. Are you hesitating between simply buying your teenager his or her first car or getting him or her to contribute to financing it? Then you are n the right place - read on for some helpful advice!
Where should you start when buying a first car?
The best way to find out about the makes and models of cars is to visit garages, dealers and manufacturers. This will give you an idea of market prices and provide a direct contact when the time comes to make the purchase. Are you looking for a new or used car? Do you want a basic car or one with a bigger engine? Do you want a small city car or a larger model equipped with parking sensors to make parking easier? You need to consider all these aspects, and it’s best to get advice from experts.
Once you have chosen the car, it’s time to think about how to pay for it.
4. Drive with full peace of mind
Whether your first car is new or used, it is always better to be well insured. A scrape when parking or a collision while distracted don’t always happen to others. It’s important to have good insurance cover and breakdown assistance you can rely on if you need it.
The Lease Plus offer includes insurance and ACL breakdown assistance. If you take out a personal loan, you choose your insurer, the level of cover and whether to take out ACL breakdown assistance.
