Do you know what a stock car is? Many advantages for the buyer compared to the 'factory' car

When buying a new car, it is common to visit a dealership of the chosen brand. And at that moment you have to choose between several types of car. Normally you order a model and a version and then customise the equipment to get the car you want. But this has a drawback: these changes have to be made at the factory, and delivery can take weeks or even months.

There is an alternative, which is to buy one of the cars on display at the dealership itself. The so-called stock cars. Many times, dealerships have pre-equipped units to show buyers everything that model can offer. These cars are also sold, and dealerships offer attractive discounts to buyers of these demonstration vehicles.

For this reason, it is a very good option to opt for these stock cars, the ones at the dealership as demonstration vehicles. To begin with, they have a very interesting advantage over those ordered from the factory: their price. They come with equipment that usually includes higher-than-normal options, and their cost is much lower than if new ones had to be ordered from the factory.

The other advantage is the delivery time. When buying a customised car, the order joins the order list and needs time to be manufactured. This causes delivery delays and you cannot enjoy the car until some time has passed. If the car is at the dealership, you can take possession of it in a much shorter time.

That said, bear in mind that the equipment is limited to what is offered on that unit, with no possibility of adding anything else, nor of removing any equipment you do not want. Therefore, you need to be very sure about what you need in the vehicle and check whether it is exactly what you are looking for.

In addition, you must negotiate the price well. Dealerships often need to move their stock, so discounts are easily applied to get rid of the vehicle on display. With this, you can have a new car, with good equipment, at a lower price than a similar one that has been customised to your taste, and in a much faster way.
