How to prepare your car for part exchange

When you trade your car in, the first impression matters. A few simple things raise the price.

• Wash the outside and clean the interior — a car that looks good is valued better.
• Bring the service book and the invoices of the repairs.
• Bring both keys and all the papers.
• Mention the remarks you know of — honesty saves both sides time.
• Take out your belongings and check the glovebox.
