Why you'll buy your next car from a dealership via classifieds

The online car-buying process is safer, easier and faster than ever due to the participation of thousands of professional dealerships, sellers and brokers in the classifieds industry, says head of Gumtree Automotive, Jeff Osborne.
 
Osborne says: “Buyers have always enjoyed the convenience of buying a car privately. The pricing is competitive, there is plenty of variety and it’s easy to browse through the stock and interact with a seller.

“The formal car trade has cottoned on to these benefits and are now participating in a major way, mimicking the ease and convenience of a private sale but also offering benefits such as service plans, financing and warranties to prospective car buyers.”
