Get the Most Value Possible for Your Vehicle Trade-In

Preparing Your Vehicle for Maximum Trade-In Value

Are you looking to get into the sporty and modern ride of a new Subaru in mid-Michigan? Thelen Subaru in Bay City is here to help! We can help you throughout the entire shopping process, including the trade-in portion if you are going to be trading your current vehicle to help pay for the new one. Getting the most for your trade-in is vital to ensuring you have confidence in your new purchase. If you want to maximize the amount of money you get for your vehicle, we would like to share with you our favorite tips to make your vehicle as presentable as possible for top dollar value. 

How Can You Get Top Value from Your Trade-In?

Keep Up On Maintenance & Repairs – If you haven’t had routine maintenance done on your vehicle recently, we strongly suggest investing a little bit of money towards doing so. If you take care of the maintenance without us needing to, we can offer better value for your vehicle when it comes time to trade it in. This includes full fluid changes and top-offs, battery replacements, and any other brand-specific services that are recommended. 

Clean Up Your Vehicle – Let’s face it, a clean and fresh-looking vehicle is worth more. As such, presenting us with a vehicle that has already been given proper attention to cleanliness will be worth more. If we don’t have to invest time and resources to get your vehicle sales-worthy, we can offer you more for your trade-in. This not only includes the exterior of the vehicle but the interior as well. 

Bring All Original Documents – Original documents help us offer potential buyers of your vehicle confidence in the completeness of their new-to-them purchase. This includes the owner’s manual and any other important resources that a driver would want to quickly access. Bringing all documents related to your vehicle at trade-in will help increase the overall value, so make sure you find them before you bring your vehicle in!
