Buying a brand new car in Australia can be exciting, and sometimes a scary experience as well. There are so many new cars to choose from, in fact, Australia is globally known as one of the most competitive car markets in the world. This is a place where you have got an option of over 40 brands with different models.
In Australia, you can buy a new car from a car dealer, but make sure you always buy a car from a licensed dealer who has an authorized car dealership. The length of warranty required by law varies from state to state. If possible, ask the car dealer for feedback from his customers or else check the Internet. However, there are a few other points specific to cars in Australia that you must be aware of, before you buy a car:

Always conduct initial research -
Once you know that you actually deserve a new car and have a budget in mind, then always do the initial research. Try to find out find out what is available on the road, have words with your friends, colleagues about their cars. Use the internet or read magazines to have a better idea about the current car market.
Test Drive is must - You should always test drive the car yourself. Make sure you pop down to your local car dealer and drive your chosen car model. In case, if you are too scared to drive it, ask the seller/dealer to take you on a short drive and ask him what you would like him to do: accelerate fast, brake sharp etc.
Modes of Payments -
There are different ways you can pay for your car, like Cash, Cheque, or dealer finance. If planning to buy the car by borrowing the money (lease or loan) then always compare the interest rates and application fees. Make sure, you don't just focus on your monthly payments, but instead focus on the cost of the vehicle over the term of the loan as well as the terms of the loan.
Is Additional Accessories Necessary -
When you buy a car, most dealers always try to introduce or influence with various add-ons like fabric protector, bonnet protector and much more. So, decide very clearly. If you are looking for normal suburban driving, then there is really no need to add anything extra to a new car as most are built well enough to bear conditions.
After Sales Benefits -
Now finally after you buy a new car and take delivery, make sure you take advantage of all the other benefits of after sales service. This may include free roadside assistance, an automotive helpline and many more.
So stay smart, keep yourself aware of special deals, drive safe and you could be the lucky one to find the best deal with your new car.
