One of the best ways to prolong the life of a second hand car is to get it repainted. After you buy the car, it may be in a deplorable-looking state. If the paints have peeled off, then the car will wear an ugly look. It will harm your social reputation. At the same time, it will not provide as much resistance from weather and other atmospheric elements as a new paint does. Alternately, a good car dealer in Ikeja may do the repainting for you before handing you the car. They often sell car in Ikeja through CarXus and can be, therefore, touted as reliable.

Another way to increase the life of a used car is to drive it with some discretion. Since, it may already be past its prime, you may choose to drive it sparingly. If you drive it only during emergencies or during certain specific circumstances, then it will serve you for a longer period. You can also try investing a bit more in it in order to increase its shelf life. When you picked up a used car for sale in Ikeja, it may have rusted screws and other components. You may, subsequently, change them and breathe new vitality into the car.
