Before you drive your new car off the forecourt it is important to check that everything is in order writes Suzanne Keane<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Our list of ten things you need to check before you drive away your brand new car<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Collect the car in daylight hours to ensure that no damage has occurred on route to the dealership.<\/li>\n
  2. Make sure the registration plates match.<\/li>\n
  3. Ensure any options you specified have been included.<\/li>\n
  4. Check that the fuel tank is full.<\/li>\n
  5. If you are buying on a PCP or a similar finance deal ensure all the documents are signed.<\/li>\n
  6. Two sets of keys should be provided.<\/li>\n
  7. Are there any aspects of the car that you are unsure about? If so now is the time to ask for a demonstration.<\/li>\n
  8. It is always a good idea to take the name and number of the person handing the car over.<\/li>\n
  9. Often overlooked until it is too late but you should always know if you have a spare tyre, a space saver or a puncture repair kit.<\/li>\n
  10. Finally, ring your insurance company and make sure you are covered before leaving the forecourt.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
