When Buying A Used Car From A Dealer -

Authoritative dealers often provide a Carfax or AutoCheck report showing past accidents or title issues.

The legally binding document detailing the final price, VIN, odometer reading, and any special conditions like "subject to finance".

If you are financing through the dealer, bring recent pay stubs , bank statements, or tax returns (especially if self-employed) to verify your ability to repay the loan.

If trading in your old car, you must bring its title (pink slip), current registration , and all sets of keys. ✍️ Documents You Will Sign or Receive
