Advantages of Buying Used Auto Parts

‘Used’ is an underrated category when it comes to automotive parts, and really the entire automotive industry in general. All the advertising is about new this, new that, and the culture of cars says to replace your old car with a new one if you can’t get a part for the right price. Presumably, this part is new.

The truth is that used parts are often every bit as good as their new counterparts. They just come without financing plans to make the dealers more money in the long term. And you might note that we say ‘often,’ but keep in mind: just because a part is new, it doesn’t necessarily follow that the part will work.

Think about it. It’s the same reasoning behind why you’d want to buy a used car versus a new car. Used cars are simply cars made out of used parts, are they not? They’ve gone through their steepest devaluation period, and proven to be effective.

They just make sense.

  6. I got used auto parts on my car after I was rear ended. The hood and the bumper are replaced, and they bent the frame back into shape. They may have been used, but they were painted to look new.

  7. I think that is very interesting that most used car parts will be in similar condition to its new counterparts. I think that looking for the best deal is important dealing with cars because they are losing value each time you drive it. However, looking into name brand may be worth it when dealing with cars. http://www.lucasusedcars.com/inventory.aspx

  10. I'm definitely a fan of buying used. I've never had any problems with used parts I've purchased in the past. I like the analogy this article brought up about buying a new car versus an old car. It is very much the same idea. You just have to make sure you are buying from a reputable dealer. http://www.bionicautoparts.com/site/used-engines/
