Buying your first car? Lekker stuff! You’re 1 step closer to freedom, drive-thrus and traffic jams that are totally your own. But before you hit the open road, let’s make sure you’re clued up on the must-knows.
From choosing the right car to getting the best cover, here’s your royal roadmap.
Step 1: Budget like a boss
Know what you can afford monthly. This includes car instalments, fuel, maintenance, and yes… Insurance. Use an online calculator to help you plan smartly.
Step 2: New vs. pre-loved
New cars are shiny but expensive. Pre-loved cars can save you cash, but make sure you:
- Get a roadworthy certificate.
- Check the car’s history.
- Ask for a full-service record.
Step 3: Must-haves for first cars
- Reliability.
- Affordability.
- Fuel efficiency.
- Low insurance risk profile.
Top picks include Toyota Starlet, VW Polo Vivo, and Suzuki Swift.
