who picks up junk cars When it came to selling my car, I knew I had to make it look as good as a bride does on her wedding day! This is because the outer appearance is the first thing people will notice when they come and see a car. I got it washed, cleaned and waxed, and used spray-on car paints to hide a few scratches. Some minor repairs also needed to be done, so I let my mechanic take care of them. I also made sure that the interior of my car, including the boot, was clear of all my stuff. A vacuum cleaner is best to suck out the dust bunnies that were there and I put some car perfume to have it smelling fresh. I also gave the foot mats, seats and windows a good cleaning. This is important as buyers want to take the car for a test drive before buying it.

The one component that needs to run right during the summer is the air conditioning. If I decided to not fix it, I would have to lower my asking price. I could instead get the air conditioning repaired and I would be able to raise the asking price. I decided to get the a/c fixed and I raised the asking price by a couple hundred dollars. My car sold instantly with the new air conditioning unit. It is amazing how much money buyers will spend for a car with cool a/c.

Because the dealership I work at offers a consignment program to sell used cars, I explained to her that I had the latest scoop regarding the easiest and quickest way to sell a car.
