The official Cars4Women.co.za buyer’s
checklist
There are so many great new features manufacturers are
adding to new cars today. If you haven’t bought a new car in the last few years
(or ever), here is a list of features and accessories (designed for both luxury
and safety) found in many new models today.
You might consider some of these features essential, and
some you could live without. It is however, a good idea to keep this checklist
handy when shopping for your new car, so you can compare what different makes
(and models) have to offer, and get a good idea of what you’re getting for your
money.
We have left space for you to enter the details of four different cars (the average number of new vehicles test driven before a purchase) and a place to tick the features if you find them in the car you’re looking at.
Happy shopping!
