A test drive is an essential step when buying a used car. Before you get behind the wheel, ask the salesperson about the vehicle's history. You should know how many owners it had and if it was in any accidents. Shoppers in Lancaster can benefit from taking notes during each test drive to compare cars later.
While driving, pay attention to how the car feels. Does the steering feel smooth? Do the brakes respond quickly? Pay attention to any strange sounds coming from the engine or wheels. Ask if you can drive on both city streets and the highway to get a full sense of how the car runs.
After the test drive, ask about the maintenance records and any recent repairs. A good service history shows the car was properly cared for. Visit GoAuto at 1143 Manheim Pike, Lancaster, PA to browse our used inventory and take a test drive today.
