  Top Tips When Buying A Used rent car Privately
Every year in the UK over 7 million used rent cars are purchased, with many of these rent cars being purchased privately direct from the owner. Whilst this can often be the route to achieving the best bargains it can also become very expensive in cases when it emerges that the rent car has a number of problems or a previously unknown history. In order to reduce the likelihood of being caught out weve put together the top tips when buying a rent car privately:

The first step is to do some research about your desired rent car. Check classified ads and trade guides to get a good idea of prices. Parkers.co.uk is an excellent site and contains a free used rent car valuation tool and thousands of reviews and ratings.

Once youve decided on which rent car youd like to buy and have found a possible seller always go and take a look at the rent car in daylight.

Take a friend along with you. If problems occur in the future its very useful to have a witness available to validate what was said.

Check that the rent car has not been clocked. The average mileage is 12,000 miles a year. Have a look at the tyres to see whether this looks right or if the rent car has new tyres ask the owner for details of its servicing history.

Always go for a test drive. However, make sure that you are insured to do so and if the seller says that he has cover ask to see his policy.

rent carefully check the log book, officially known as the V5 or registration document. In particular look for the chassis number, known as the vehicle identification number (VIN). This will usually be located on a small plate on the drivers door or in the engine bay. The absence of a VIN number strongly suggests that the rent car has assumed the identity of someone else, probably because it has been stolen at some point in its past.

You could also consider purchasing an AA rent car Data Check. Importantly this will include a full description of the rent car, including engine size and date of first registration, so you can be sure of what you are buying. It will also tell you whether the rent car has a finance agreement recorded against it, if the rent car has been written off, and whether the rent car has had any number plate or colour changes.

The chances are that at some point youll enter into negotiations over the price. Have a highest price and target price in mind before entering into negotiations. If your two offers are some way apart you try not to say anything. rent car salesmen use this tactic all the time as people find silence uncomfortable. Try this and the seller will often suggest meeting half way, at which point you can propose meeting half way between your offer and the new offer, getting yourself a better deal.

Finally, if interested in the rent car consider having it independently checked by a reputable garage. Reputable sellers will understand this so be wary if the owner of the rent car is against having it checked.

  How To Get Out Of A Car Lease

Getting out of a car lease implies the termination of the lease before the period is over. It is a difficult and complicated process to terminate your car lease before the end of the lease term. It is for this reason that many companies do not provide for lease transfers.

The easiest way to get out of a car lease is to get it transferred to another willing person. This is called lease assumption. A person wishing to terminate the lease may post advertisements on the Internet or in stores. If a person decides to they want the vehicle, the original lessee is contacted. Once all the terms are explained to the new lessee, the leasing company may begin the procedure to transfer the lease. The new lessee will have to pay the same amount per month as the original lessee. The name of the original lessee will be removed from all liabilities and will be replaced by the new lessee. Some leasing companies do require that if the new lessee fails to keep up monthly payments, the original lessee is held responsible.

Early lease termination is not an easy process. The monthly payment is calculated on the difference between the manufacturers suggested retail price (MSRP) and the estimated residual cost at the end of the term. It is this difference that is divided over the entire term. When a lessee turns in the car earlier, it has not yet depreciated to the amount that was estimated. This is an apparent loss to the lessee, but a car depreciates much more in the first year and is therefore a bigger loss to the leasing company.

If a car lease is terminated early, the lessee has to make all the payments for the remainder of the term. Early lease terminations also attract pre-penalty charges. These are charges that one pays when the car is turned in before the lease. Pre-penalty charges may be very high depending on the make of the car. They might vary from $200 to $400. There are also separate transaction charges. Hence, one cannot get out of a lease by paying the remaining payments.

Since many companies do not allow for lease transfers, there is no practical and cheap solution to wrangle out of car leases. If high monthly payments are the reason for wanting to get rid of the lease, then the lessee can speak with the company to extend the term. Extending the term will reduce the monthly payments.

When a person signs the lease contract, it must be remembered that this is a commitment that will last for the entire period of the lease.
