Ellerslie Car Fair

Whenever I’m in the hunt for a new car (by new I mean used), I will always check out the Ellerslie Car Fair. Heaps of people come here every Sunday in order to buy and sell used cars. The Car Fair is great and well organised with heaps of cars to look at if you are interested in buying. The owners usually stay with their cars so that the buyer can thoroughly check the car inside and out and ask any questions that they might have.
I hate buying a car, it’s always such a dreaded thing and you never know whether you’re going to get a shitter or not. I’m not saying that the Ellerslie Car Fair contains no shitters, but at least you have a bunch of cars in one place, which are all being sold individually. You can check the cars out properly and even take them for a test drives.

Ellerslie Car Fair is instantly gratifying. Second hand car shopping can be quite the ordeal, particularly as most of its done over the internet these days. But at the Ellerslie Car Fair you can see the car for yourself, right in front of you and instantly form an opinion. You can take a thorough look inside and out, you can touch it, smell it (and even taste it if you really wanted). You can speak to the owner face to face, ask questions and set up a test drive. If you want the car you can negotiate a price then and there (no trying to guess reserves or battling an auto-​bid). I’ve bought my last two cars at the Ellerslie Car fair and have been stoked with both of them. If you’ve just started the car hunt it’s also a good way to gauge what is available in your price range. For both buyers and sellers I would recommend the Car Fair; it’s for people that want action and can’t be bothered stuffing around
