Thinking about buying a used car

November 28, 2006 by Tricia

I’m starting to think that we might need to get a new car sometime soon. Our Ford Contour has been acting up a lot over the last two years. It’s only 10 years old, but I think it’s starting to tell us that it might not last that much longer. I said new car, but we can’t afford a new car right now so I’m starting to think about finding a place to purchase reliable Used Cars. I think I might have found the ideal site to search for used cars over at lemonfree.com.

My husband has always been a fan of Honda. We had a Honda Prelude in the early 90’s but this car eventually gave out on us. It did however live to be 14 years old- not that we had it the whole time. It was originally his parents car. So with that in mind I’ve been looking at the Honda area’s of the site, particularly the Honda Accord section.

As I’ve been looking through the site I’ve noticed some features that I really enjoy. When you find a car model that you like you can read a article of the type of car model, crash test results and ratings, you can also read stats on the estimated fuel economy, and recall notices for the make, model and year as well. I really like that part. When we were looking at cars back in ’98 I was reading reports on the models that we were interested in – like recalls and crash test results … so to have it all in one place so easy to find as I’m looking at a car that I’m thinking of purchasing is wonderful. LemonFree.com has made finding a used car, and learning more about the make and model so easy. I’m really impressed.

Another thing that I like about this site is that it has listing for both Canada and the US. As a Canadian I’ve found many sites geared towards American Consumers (even Canadian sites!) but not as many that have items for both countries. I found listing for a 2002 Honda Accord that might be suitable. At least it’s in our general area so we can contact the current owner and possibly go to see the vehicle.

Wish us luck!

    Thanks for the link to that site!

    I am in the market for a car myself and that should prove useful.

    Thanks!

    Good Luck! Hope you found a car okay =)

    I really like my honda civic. It seems with those cars, the engine will out last the body. The new ones are really nice too. When it comes time to turn in my old one, I will definitely be looking to upgrade.
