Buying or leasing a new car can be pretty expensive and it’s easy in all the excitement to forget the basic must-ask questions…
What do you need?
What are the essentials?
And, most importantly, can you afford it?
We answer these and more below…
Want a long-term investment? Consider going electric
A ban on the production of petrol and diesel cars is set to be in place by 2030, so if you’re looking at making the switch, it might something to consider sooner rather than later.
But, it’s important to remember that the decision between electric vs fuel very much depends on your personal needs and circumstances. You can get a very small electric car at a reasonable cost but long journeys do require more planning to ensure you don’t lose track of accessible charging stations.
Whatever your preference; make sure you don’t miss out on saving up to 30% when buying or leasing a new car through Motorfinity or get great discounts on over 2,000 new and used cars with EMC Forces Cars.
Get the best insurance for you
The price of your car insurance can change a lot depending on the car you choose so be sure to factor this in and get a few quotes before signing on the dotted line.
Don’t forget, you can save on your car insurance when you shop around with Go Compare and receive a cheeky £30 Amazon voucher while you’re at it!
Keeping your car in good nick
Most new cars won’t require an MOT or service for three years (which is particularly handy if you choose to lease), but, do keep in mind that – once they need annual checks - larger or less common cars will always be more of a hassle to sort as they may need more specialised parts and services.
