Auto purchase guide: which car to choose ? And how ?

Buying a car is an important moment. It’s a pleasure, but these are also a lot of questions: what do we need ? What do we want ? What budget do we have ? Purchase pleasure or purchase reason ?
Starterre teams set up resources and guides to provide you with the answers and guide you in a multitude of available, new, 0 km, or used models. Our advisers are at your disposal to help you make your choice. So that your acquisition is a pure experience of pleasure.

Purchase of a new car: ask the right questions

Family car, small car, useful purchase or pleasure purchase. What parameters favor ?

To determine the one that will be the best car for you, it is important to prioritize your priorities. The use that will be made of the vehicle is obviously decisive to choose the appropriate car model. But that is not the only criterion ! We must also weigh between reasonable, Cartesian: budget, security, consumption. Without sacrificing pleasure: driving pleasure, performance, equipment, design. The best car is the one you will be happy to have bought, long after. And the good car for you is necessarily in our catalog of nearly 2,500 vehicles available.

Inexpensive city car or city dweller: same fight ?

Not necessarily. And its purchase does not mean the same way. If a Citroën C1, a Peugeot 108, a Renault Clio, a Twingo or a Fiat 500 are in the same segment, it is not the same services, and not the same budget. Again, the use that will be made of your car is essential, especially on the energy chosen. For exclusively urban use and a lower need for autonomy, the electrical models will be indicated. For mixed use which punctually incorporates long journeys, petrol or diesel car displaying a Crit’Air 1 or 2 sticker, and therefore always adequate for the urban environment, will be more suitable.
