A pre-owned 1980 cadillac or pre-owned car or pre-owned truck sets up a completely different group of things to think about and ways to approach the acquisition. Generally speaking you will buy your car, truck, 1980 cadillac or SUV from one of four sources: (a) private party; (b) a dealership with a used car lot; (c) a stand along used car lot; or (d) a car rental agency selling their inventory. If you are going to purchase the vehicle from a stand-along used car lot, check out their reputation for honesty and fair dealings through the Better Business Bureau. New car dealerships with a resale could be a more conservative place to make the purchase of the 1980 cadillac, truck, SUV or car as often the cars come in as part of the new sale and these dealerships often offer a warranty as to the condition of the vehicle. Again reputation is an important matter, as well. Buying from a private party has both the most potential advantage and potentially the greatest downside. The advantage - no mark-up for a retailer. The disadvantage - someone could be unloading their 'lemon'. So, always, have the vehicle checked out by a reputable mechanic before buying it. We like buying a vehicle from the sales lot of a national rent-a-car agency whether it is a car, truck, SUV or 1980 cadillac. They are well maintained and generally not more than a year or two old. You don't necessarily get any 'steals' but the car should be in great mechanical shape.
