Those who have just passed their driving test will be keen to get out on the road as soon as possible. But new drivers are normally advised to settle for a used car for the first few months at least. This is because they are more likely to have accidents; especially the small bumps and scrapes that can make a car look old quickly. The logic is that if you get a scrape on a used car it can be a bit upsetting, but if this is a brand new car it can feel devastating. This is why some people advise new drivers to only purchase used cars; that way they won’t be too upset when accidents happen. And while this is a good reason to not choose a new car, there are a number of good reasons for going with a new car as well.
- It would be a bit wasteful to go with a used car for a few years and then changing it for a brand new year. You are unlikely to get anywhere near as much for your old car then what you paid when you originally bought it.
- No one really knows what they are getting when they buy a used car and this is especially true when you buy a used car privately from someone you don’t know. Who knows, you could end up driving around a heap of junk as your first car. If you have no experience driving then it is less likely that you will be able to spot cars which are on the way out.
- It is par for the course that your car is going to pick up a few scratches; even an experienced driver will have the odd mistake. And whether you are a new driver or one with tonnes of experience, if another driver scratches your car, there is nothing at all you can do about it.
- You will get so much more pleasure from a new car so why wait and deny yourself such an enjoyable experience.
