What should I check before buying a car under £2,000?

There are many aspects to check over when looking at a car for under £2,000. At this price point, you may struggle to find a car with a full service history but we’d still recommend finding a car that has at least had routine servicing - or recent maintenance - so ask the seller for receipts or recent invoices for any work completed. It’s also a good idea to make sure that the tyres are in good condition and we’d advise checking how much MOT is left on the car - as retesting shortly after purchase could cost a lot more.
Is it possible to find reliable automatic cars under £2k?

Absolutely. Again, picking a car which has had routine - or at least basic - maintenance can help when it comes to reliability. While automatic cars are less common at this price point, there are plenty out there to choose from and you can easily find them on AA Cars by using the dedicated filter tool to make sure you’re only seeing automatic cars that are for sale.
What are common maintenance issues with cheaper used cars?

Cheaper used cars tend to have higher mileages, which means that many parts tend to start reaching the end of their working life. This could be features such as timing belts, turbochargers or suspension components, so it’s worth factoring in these repairs when budgeting. However, when well maintained, cheaper used cars can still be very reliable and will cost a fraction of a brand-new car overall.
Can I finance a car that costs less than £2,000?

Here at AA Cars, our finance options start at £2,000, so while you won’t be able to go under this budget, you will be able to find payment schemes which work for you right on this amount. Plus, you could speak to the retailer of the vehicle to see what kind of financing packages they’re able to offer on cars costing less than £2,000.
How do I know if a cheap used car is in good condition?

There are some key ways to make sure that a cheap used car is in good condition and it’s mainly down to the way it drives. At this price point, there is likely to be some cosmetic or age-related damage on the outside, but as long as it isn’t severe, then this won’t affect the driveability of the car. We’d make sure that aspects such as the brakes worked well and that the engine pulls well without clattering or struggling. A smooth-shifting gearbox is essential, too.
