How to begin the search for a new car

It can be difficult to know where to start when you are starting your research to buy a new car.  Some people start by narrowing down to the car that they want based on their criteria – they may know they want a German 4 door saloon with a petrol engine and over 200 bhp for example.  For others it is a case of starting with a budget and and looking for the best new car deals within their budget.  However, the vast majority of new car buyers fall somewhere in between.

So, where to begin your research?  Autotrader have recently launced a new car research tool that allows you to filter new cars based on certain criteria and then compare the different cars that you have selected.  It then gives you a list of dealers who sell this car, based on your post code.  It’s not rocket-science but its not a bad tool.  Its one major drawback is that it doesn’t give you any prices that dealers are prepared to sell the vehicles at, so its a useful tool for deciding which car you want but not where to buy it from.

That’s where this next site comes in.  Cars2Buy allows you to find the best new car deal available for your chosen model of car.  It will list results of different dealers’ prices for the car you are interested in, allowing you to find the best deal out there.
