The second-hand market

It is well known that the price of a car drops considerably once it leaves the dealership. Buying a new car is therefore not very interesting if you want to save money.

It is better to turn to recent used cars , which are easy to find with a price reduced by around 20%. If you are looking for a used Audi for sale , for example , you will find what you are looking for on sites like L e Bon coin , or Facebook Marketplace.

Selling a car at auction allows you to save 20 to 50%  on average. You will find rental cars, repossessions or fleet sales at auction. Auctions are organized in France almost everywhere, but also online. A good plan to remember!

Bonuses and bonuses

Leasing allows you to rent a car with the option of purchasing it at the end of the contract. It’s a clever way to acquire a car by paying €100 per month for small models, for example.

The end of the series

Did you know that with each change of series, manufacturers make discounts more easily? If a model is redesigned approximately every 2 or 3 years, it generally undergoes a total redesign every 5 to 6 years. So keep an eye out for end-of-series items to get good deals!

Auto brokers and agents

Another tip is to use a car broker or agent. Brokers manage to make big savings by purchasing a large volume of new cars. As for agents, they generally buy vehicles abroad and therefore benefit from more attractive taxation.

Manufacturers’ clearance sites
