where to buy car tires in the Netherlands? I just moved to Holland (Rotterdam) from the USA. Where I can buy car tires cheaply, either retailer or online? I need the relatively high-end ones, run-flats and winter so going to the dealership would be a drug.

is it better to buy cheaper can than expensive car? I love expensive sports cars, but I don`t need to have it, I can just watch those at museum, stores, and photos. I think buying cars is waste of money. It costs money to buy cars, car insurance, gasoline, and parking ticket. Also cars get stolen lot , it can break easily by car crash, some bad kids will scratch it, and high risk of death. Using train is way cheaper. If I really need car, I would stick with least cheapest car. Because when my car got stolen, or broke, I have less things to lose.

Can I buy a car using my credit card? I thinking about buying a car 20grand out the door max. I dont want a lecture on credit please. 1. One is to buy car and put it on my credit card. Can this be done? Do dealership take credit cards? 2. I have really good credit and get these blank 0% APR until, lets say July 2007 all the time. I can use these for purchase or deposit it in my bank account but it will be treated as a cash advance and has a max fee of $90. So if I write a check for $10,000, there will be a fee of $90. So I was thinking of writing the check to the dealership or myself. When July 07 comes and interest rate kick in, I would transfer that balance to another credit card with 0% offer. So overall I pay 0% interest and all I lose is about $90 in fees, and my car will probably be paid off by the time the promotion period ends.

How do you use ebay motors to buy car? I've been browsing ebay motors for car prices. I really don't understand the bidding method for cars. Most have a reserve price that isn't listed so how do you know when you're over or under bidding? Any bidding advice would be great. I'd like to save money but I can't quite figure out the method. There is also a buy it now price that seems to be what the buyer wants you to pay. That price is usually quite high. So how are you actually saving money? ANY bidding advice would help. Also, please share experiences if you have them. I'm still a bit skeptical..... In regards to the reserve, how does one know when the reserve has been met and what the price was? I don't understand how you get good footing with this thing? so does ebay motors actually SAVE you money or just the hassle of dealing with those wack jobs at the dealership?

What kind of car would you never buy and why? Hi, I am wondering what cars people really have turned out NOT to like. I am looking for a new car (well, used actually), but I really don't know what to look for -- and for some strange reason have no real idea of what I want, other than the part where it has to have really good leg room, cuz I have long legs. Also, unfortunately, at this point, I need to keep it at or under $15,000 -- so if that helps. Anyway, I want to avoid ones that people have had a lot of trouble with, so I just want your opinions on what you would NOT buy. Well, I guess you could tell me what you would buy too -- but most importantly, tell me WHY. I need to know why, so I can factor it into my figuring. Yeah, even at my age, I have no real experience buying cars, as I have had the same one for like 8 years and I never even picked that one out in the first place...before that, I had a 1983 Nissan Sentra that a friend sold me for 200 bucks - I loved that car... Any help would be greatly appreciated!

How easy is it to buy car in NY and register it in Texas? Hi, Hubby is getting transfered to Houston for work. We currently live in the UK (but we're Canadians) and were thinking of taking a transatlantic to get to New York with our 2 dogs and then drive to Houston. It would probably be less stressfull on the dogs and also cheaper (dogs flight = 4500USD). We thought of buying a used car in New York and then drive to Houston where we would register the car. Is that even possible? What would be the steps to follow. Thanks and happy holidays!

Can you give me infromation on how to buy a used car from the newspaper? First and foremost, please only serious responses. Okay I might be breaking some car dealer code or something, but come on and let me in the loop, becaue I'm at my witts end with this crap. My story might be a little long, but vaild for how you might respond. A lot of people that I have contacted in the newspaper (because this is the only way I can find cars within my price range) will tell me that they have sold the car I'm calling about, but the all of a sudden they have another car but it's supposed to a little more than the car I was calling for. A lot of these men that I'm calling seem to already be dealers. The feeling that I'm getting is that these dealers are buying cars from these accutions that regular folk can't get into, and they probably half a** fix them up and sell them. Am I correct and should I avoid these type of deals. Does anyone have some hidden advice that you could give in dealing with these people. Also when the sellar says they will make it where that you want have to pay sales tax is that another way of knowing that they are dealer and something might be wrong with this situation?

How can I buy and use the car in LA and CA when I'm a foreigner? I'll be visiting CA this summer for 3 months (tourist visa) Having no car is not an option there. Renting for such a period would be expensive (but if there is no choice I'll do that) so I was wondering if I can buy one. The problem is that I won't have permanent residency and Social Number. I do have international driving licence and more than 25 years:) I was thinking of buying car between 1500-2500 usd. And selling it for 500-1000 usd cheaper at the end of the stay. Regarding legal things I was wondering is it is possible to do same thing as in my country. Buying car, not formally changing the owner (plates+registration), buying necceserry insurance and use it as it is. But I'm really not sure if it can work out. Of course I'll send questions to rental comapanies for special prices for such a long rental. This seems to be muuuch easier.

Would you prefer to buy a car from a dealer with no haggle prices? If a dealer had an upfront set price on each car would you prefer buying there over negotiating elsewhere. I buy cars from a dealership like this...they advertise mostly online and do not have any actual salespeople. The cars are all lease returns and most are under warranty.

We have an extra car that pretty much just sits in the garage, but my parents still refuse to let me drive it. How can I convince them to buy me a used car or let me drive their extra car?
