Jan Feb or March? What are the best months to sell your car

There are certain times in a year, month or week when you should purchase certain goods. Car is also one of them. Usually companies when selling new cars give some promotional offer during the weekend. Another time when there is high sale of cars is during festivals. In India usually the companies provide some kind of discount and in those two or three days there is huge rush. The same goes for used cars but here the dealers are even smarter. They do not advertise the offers but one has to negotiate well with them for the used car prices.

For buying used car, one should not go to the dealers in the weekend, in the beginning or mid month and also in the beginning or mid of the year.

Similarly if you go to the dealer in the month end to buy a used car you will be able to better bargain with the used car prices. These dealers have a deadline that in one month the will be selling a particular number of cars and usually the number is high and they cannot meet it always. So if you go in the month end days then you can get a better deal as he will be willing to sell the used car at your price then or at the least close to your price. If you go to the dealer around the end of the year, like around the months October, November and December you will be able to better negotiate with the price than the other months. Just like before the dealers have the deadline to meet, the number of sales they do in a year and they will be more willing to sell the car at a negotiable price than the other months. They are also willing to clear out the stock and get new stock in the beginning of the year.
If you go to a dealer during the weekend for buying a used car, then there is quite a lot of rush for buying. Statistics have shown that in India used cars are sold more than new cars and thus the time when you go  to buy the car and there is quite a lot of rush then the dealer will bargain much and will stick to his price. It is considered that Monday is a slow day for business because whatever sale they have on the weekend days like Friday, Saturday and also Sunday they calculate them on Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday are the perfect days to go to a dealer to buy used car. Business is considered to be slow on the beginning of the week and especially on those two days and if you go to the dealer for buying the used car you will be able to get a better bargain.


Thus the time to go to a dealer for buying used car is the beginning of the week, end of the month and end of the year. Instead of January one should go around March April then one cans trike a better deal with the dealer.
