Did you know that you can bump up your used car\u2019s resale value by up to 20% with a few simple tricks? Follow these cool tips and get the best price in the market for your used car in Dubai. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Make<\/strong><b> it Shine:<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Never underestimate the power of a slick and shiny vehicle especially if you are looking to sell your car in the UAE. When an aspiring buyer takes a look at your used car and sees a clean vehicle inside and out, it gives them the impression that the car has been well-cared for immediately bumping up the resale value of the car.<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<li><strong>Say Goodbye to the Dents:<\/strong> Fix any small dents or car paint scratches to make it look as good as new. Scrubbing and waxing can raise the price by a few hundred dirhams. In some cases, even a new paint job on the car may fetch you more than it costs. Before you put up your used car for sale, consider investing in a complete one-time car care service package from a good servicing company like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.carbox.io\/services\/\">CarBox<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.greensteamgcc.com\/services\/\">GreenSteam<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maintain Records At All Times:<\/strong> Proper repair and maintenance records can immediately bump up the used car resale value. If your car has been in a major accident or crash, include it in the records. Prospective buyers like knowing the exact condition of the car and complete, regular maintenance and repair documentation offers them that satisfaction.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Extras Go A Long Way:<\/strong> Spend a few dirhams to replace worn-out knobs, buttons, torn leather or other small cabin accessories. Otherwise, it might give the buyer the wrong impression that the car has been ill-kept. Throw in free extras &#8211; for example, those new wipers that you recently replaced but can\u2019t fit in your new car, to make the package seem more attractive.\n<p style=\"display: inline !important;\">\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p style=\"display: inline !important;\"><strong>Warranty the Car:<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> If your car is not under warranty, you can easily buy a 3rd-party warranty for AED 1000-2000. It doesn\u2019t cost much and gives a lot of comfort to the buyers.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Read up on these <a href=\"http:\/\/65.1.85.58\/newsroom\/learn-car-resale-value-dubai-uae\/\">tips on how to value your car<\/a> to get an even better price or check out our online valuator to find out <a href=\"https:\/\/carswitch.com\/carvaluator\">car prices in Dubai<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are looking to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/carswitch.com\/dubai\/used-car\/sell\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sell your car in the UAE<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and want to avoid all the hassle involved, let CarSwitch handle the entire process for you.
