Here are a few tips in our basic guide to&nbsp;buying a used car in Malaysia.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Do your homework<\/h2>\n<p>Arm yourself with as much knowledge as possible even before you go looking for your future car.&nbsp;\u201cWhat type of car do I want?\u201d, What can I afford?\u201d, \u201cHow much is the car\u2019s maintenance?\u201d, and&nbsp;\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/rpstagingdot.wpcomstaging.com\/personal-loan\/car-loan\">What kind of loan can I get?<\/a>\u201d are just some of the basic questions that you need to research while&nbsp;planning to buy a car. Check out our guide for first time car buyers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.comparehero.my\/blog\/tips-for-first-time-car-buyers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>There are a few&nbsp;handy websites that you can refer&nbsp;to, like&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wemotor.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">WeMotor.com,<\/a>&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.carbase.my\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow noopener noreferrer\">Carbase.my<\/a>&nbsp;and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.carreviewsncare.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CarReviewsNCare.com<\/a>, where you can easily find owner reviews and&nbsp;prices of the various car models and brands in Malaysia. Once you\u2019ve identified your budget, car&nbsp;features and model that you want, it\u2019s time to look for the best used car deals in town!<\/p>\n<h2>2. Come up with a budget<\/h2>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rpstagingdot.wpcomstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads-my\/2021\/10\/tips-for-buying-a-used-car-in-malaysia-01.jpg?resize=640%2C335&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"tips-for-buying-a-used-car-in-malaysia-01\" width=\"640\" height=\"335\"><\/p>\n<p>Now that you\u2019ve got the initial budget and planning sorted out, check out websites and online&nbsp;classifieds like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.motortrader.com.my\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MotorTrader<\/a>, or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mudah.my\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mudah<\/a> to research the market price of the used car you want to buy.&nbsp;Then list out and compare what any of the potential candidates are offering. The cheapest car may&nbsp;not be the one with the most value. Remember, a car is a long-\u00adterm investment and you want to get&nbsp;your money\u2019s worth!<\/p>\n<p><strong>CompareHero.my Tip<\/strong>: Keep an eye out for used cars that are around 5\u00ad% to 10% of your budget as the&nbsp;price may be negotiable. We all love discounts and it never hurts to ask nicely!<\/p>\n<h4>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.comparehero.my\/blog\/tips-for-first-time-car-buyers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">5 Handy Tips For First Time Car Buyers<\/a><\/h4>\n<h2>3. Inspect your car<\/h2>\n<p>A picture may be worth a thousand words, but basing your purchase entirely on pictures is strictly a&nbsp;no-\u00adno. Always examine the car in person as you don\u2019t want to get stuck with a <em>kereta potong<\/em> (cut-and-\u00adjoined car). Don\u2019t forget; check the car service records to see if the car has been properly&nbsp;maintained!<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re not sure how to do it by yourself, bring a friend who does or ask your mechanic for help.&nbsp;Once you\u2019re happy with your choice and are confident enough to proceed, it\u2019s time to break out the&nbsp;paperwork.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Get your documentation sorted<\/h2>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rpstagingdot.wpcomstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads-my\/2021\/10\/tips-for-buying-a-used-car-in-malaysia-02.jpg?resize=640%2C335&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"tips-for-buying-a-used-car-in-malaysia-02\" width=\"640\" height=\"335\"><\/p>\n<p>You really, really don\u2019t want to be stuck with a roadworthy or stolen car, so make sure all of the&nbsp;proper documentation for the car is in order.&nbsp;If you\u2019re buying from a used car dealership, the car should have already been inspected and certified&nbsp;by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.puspakom.com.my\/\">PUSPAKOM<\/a> in order to facilitate the sale. Request for the vehicle registration card, B5 report&nbsp;(Transfer of Ownership) and if you\u2019re taking a bank loan, the B7 report (Hire Purchase Inspection).<\/p>\n<p>Buying directly from the car owner is a similar process, so ask for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carsome.my\/news\/item\/what-is-a-puspakom-b5-report\">PUSPAKOM B5<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.puspakom.com.my\/hire-purchase-inspection\/\">B7&nbsp;reports<\/a> (each cost RM30 and RM60 respectively). However, if the owner is still repaying their car&nbsp;loan, the vehicle registration card will be kept by their bank so ask for a bank certified photocopy of&nbsp;the registration card.<\/p>\n<p>The bank will provide the original when it is time to arrange for the transfer of ownership at Jabatan&nbsp;Pengangkutan Jalan Malaysia (Road Transport Department Malaysia) . You will also need to provide&nbsp;legal documents and other forms required by Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan Malaysia to transfer&nbsp;ownership, so check and download the full list <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jpj.gov.my\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>So what do you think? Is it worth investing in a used car? Let us know in the comments!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to get a second-hand car, a personal loan is one of the easiest ways to fund your purchase.
