How Maximising Your Car Protection Provides the Greatest Value

Posted on , updated on by carbroker

If you’re thinking of buying a new car, or your current car’s warranty is about to run out, you’re probably asking yourself the big question: is it worth investing in an extended warranty? We think the answer is almost always yes. There are a couple of other ways to beef up the protection of your car so that you win in the long run. Maximising your car protection always pays off – life is unpredictable and things can turn sour at any moment: from an accident to a breakdown to spilling coffee on your fabric seats. Here are some great ways to maximise car protection and gain the greatest long-term value.

Insurance

Insuring your car is almost a no-brainer, unless you drive a $500 jalopy, which we’re assuming you don’t. Mistakes can happen at any time – and not just ones that are in your control. Let’s say you park your car on the street, return a couple hours later and find that your baby has a dent in the rear bumper… and nobody has left a note. While it’d be nice to trust in the honesty of other people, it’s unfortunately not something you can count on all the time.

Warranty increases resale value

An extended warranty works in two ways – it protects you if something major goes wrong with your car, but it also increases the resale value if there comes a time to sell your car. This means you get to drive around without any worries, and get a better price for your car when you go to sell it – it’s a win-win!

Garage your car or invest in paint protection

Another way to maximise your car protection is to keep your car in a garage if possible or invest in paint protection. The car’s paint is one of its main assets, and the condition of it will be rigorously inspected by any potential buyer. Garages and paint protection protect your car against the elements and are of great value if you see yourself selling your car in order to upgrade down the track.

Leather protector, floor mats, interior protection

The inside of the car is equally as important as the exterior. There are a range of protection options for the interior of your car such as leather protector, floor mats and dash mats.

Testimonials

All went well with the sale - your dealer was helpful, friendly and arranged the tray with no fuss or fanfare. The whole process has been totally painless and I will (and have been) recommend your service to everyone.

R.H., Mitcham

I would like to thank you and your organisation for your assistance in the purchase of my new Hyundai Tiburon. As you are aware, I am Sales Manager of a busy company in Brisbane, and I did not have to leave my office once during the 4 days it took to find the car,organise trade-in,arrange for extras and deliver the car. I would have no hesitation in recomending your organisation to both, my friends and interested parties looking to purchase a new car. Thanks again and good luck in the future

B.R., Brisbane

Thank you for the service. The advice was good and the price reasonable. The dealer came to me at work both to value the trade in and to deliver the new car.

T.A., Melbourne

Chris, You are a champ. Your advice on the trade-in worked a treat. I have a buyer at $14,280. A cool $2280 above the original figure! Thanks mate!

B.M., Melbourne

Just a brief note to say thanks for your outstanding service. You managed to find a dealer who was prepared to reduce the purchase by some $6750 inclusive of all costs and then you went further by haggling for a better trade in for me giving me a change over cost of exactly $13500 less... THAT I CALL SERVICE...I shall certainly be singing your praises.

K.B., Sydney

We saved around $1500 which was absolutely fantastic given that it resulted from only one web enquiry and five minutes of our time! Thankyou so much. And, yes, we will tell others of your service.

J.T., Canberra

A short note to say thanks for the professional and profitable service that you've just delivered to me. Getting the best price from the city and then translating to a country dealer in a small town made it a lot easier. You'd be surprised how many times we bump into each other, and taking the local personality out of the negotiation was much appreciated by both the dealer and myself.

K.P., Armidale

Your prompt and professional service was very appreciated, and we will recommend your service on to our friends and family.

C.K., Melbourne

...your professionalism and responsiveness is incredible... exceeding my expectations that were already quite high due to the information available, and style and tone of your website.

C.H., Brisbane

Being a single woman, the thing I appreciated most was not being ripped off by sleazy car salesmen. I actually paid much less than a guy working in my office who bought (almost) the same car!
