for used car as compared to new

pay for latest cars. And, lastly, there is more chance that you may not get the

As per norms, used car loan is
granted only when age of the car and loan’s tenure do not go beyond 7 years in
combined manner. Thus, if you are planning to get loan for 5 years, the age of
your vehicle should not exceed two years in any condition. If you need a loan
for 3 years, than the age must not exceed 4 years and the same is applicable
for lesser years.
For used financing in India, there

TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENTS AND THE PRE-OWNED AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY
Going back to the emergence
of the Indian pre-owned automobile industry a decade ago, in the absence of
organized players, the market was primarily relying on internal exchange
mediums among friends, family and acquaintances, which accounted for over 60%
of the market. And remaining 40% of the market was controlled by multiple small
local unorganized dealers. The industry seems to have come a long way ahead
since then to a much more structured scenario with numerous renowned organized
players such as Shriram Automall India Limited regulating the market currently.
Organized
players like Shriram Automall have brought about technology playing a pivotal
role in the pre-owned automobile industry too. Several technological
developments during the last couple of years in the industry have substantially
influenced the buying and selling patterns of old vehicles in India and have
visibly made major alterations in the customer buying behavior today. At

WHAT MAKES A NEW CUSTOMER CHOOSE A USED CAR TODAY?
The times are
changing and automobile industry is corresponding with it. To prove this fact,
we will see the autonomous vehicles running around us without a driver in a
span of 2-3 years; also the vision has been broadened to invent flying cars for
the future.
While all these are big
revolutions on its own, the mindset of people today has changed and become
practical enough to think both ways for a situation. Let’s take the example of
the used car industry today, few year ago buying a used car was a sign of
poverty and low income however today entire country has shifted towards the
used vehicle market, not just cars but also the big ticket items like
commercial vehicle, construction equipment and others.
The ration between a new and used
vehicle is 1:1 which means whenever a new car comes out of the showroom, a usedcar accompanies. The momentum of sales have been felt by one and all and that
is the reason why we have seen more and more organized players coming into this
sector to eat the pie.
One of the most trusted players
in this sector is Shriram Automall which has redefined the ways how used
vehicles are sold in the country. Their transparent buying and selling
platforms have been recognized by highest industry bodies.

DRIVING IN FOG? HERE ARE SOME CAUTIONS TO TAKE
Ref - http://www.tipmine.com/
Winters are finally
here and it has already made us think twice before getting out of the bed from
the cozy quilt and go to work. With work we remember driving a car. There are
some days in winters where most part of the country are fogged up and makes
driving difficult. Here we bring you some tips on how to drive better on a
foggy winter morning.
Mist
is a common problem on a winter morning, to tackle this most of us runs dry
wipers to clean it. Don’t do this; instead run the wipers with fluid for better
car hygiene and cleanliness.
As there is difference between
the temperature outside and in your car, your windows will easily fog up and minimize
visibility. Hence to clear the fog, use the front and rear defogger and switch
the AC.
While sitting make sure you
adjust your seat to the highest level for a clear view and keep your eyes fixed
on the road.
You are advised not to drive in
HIGH BEAM as it will reduce the visibility in fog and may even give you
illusion of white wall. However your headlight and fog lamp will come in handy.
You will drive better if you
follow the white lines on the road and by keeping the Google map in your hand
for a better road idea. Bigger vehicles emit more heat and therefore tend to
disperse more amount of fog around, so it is a good idea to drive behind a
truck or a bus in foggy conditions, but don't forget to maintain appropriate
distance.
