When making the decision to buy a 0 km vehicle It is important to see the options that the market offers and which would be the most convenient for your pocket. If the resolution ends up being a conventional cash purchase, it is advisable to follow a series of steps to give greater legal security to your contract.
In general terms, the automotive sale is implemented with a down payment document of the operation, then the reservation of the chosen vehicle is issued and the agreed price is paid.
The next step is the assignment of the unit and the procedures for patenting the vehicle in the National Registry of Automotive Property will begin.
Here it is important to know if there was an offer or advertising from the dealership that the buyer is accepting. It is essential that if the answer is “YES”, you must keep a copy because The entire operation must reflect the characteristics or conditions taken into account by the buyer and that led him to move forward with the contract.
Therefore, at the time of leaving the deposit to begin the purchase and sale contract, it is important to record the concept thereof by entering the reference of the operation and specifying what will happen if the operation is not advanced.
A supporting document
After paying the deposit, or simultaneously with it, you must sign a document that specifies all the conditions of the contract. In this type of purchase, the suggestion is to focus on the vehicle reservation instrument because it has to contain the fundamental data so that the operation can be completed in the expected manner or so that a legal claim can be made in case of non-compliance.
This means that at the time of perfecting the operation, everything promised in conversations, messages, advertisements, etc., should be reflected in the document in which the reservation is made.
Los three fundamental points in said instrument they will be the date of signing the reservation, the date of delivery of the vehicle and, finally, the total amount to be paid. These data are often not clear because they could include legends that could say phrases such as “the amount stated is an estimate” or “paid on account” or “subject to billing amount.”
In Argentina, unlike the rest of the world, the cash purchase of a 0 km is a common operation.After signing the unit reservation and paying the agreed price, the moment of assignment will come. It is when the vehicle is already destined for the buyer and the invoice for it is issued in order to begin the patenting process in the Automotive Property Registry.
Once this is concluded, the final stage can be completed, which is the preparation of the vehicle, the license plates are placed and the buyer proceeds with the removal of the unit.
If any of these steps are not fulfilled, the buyer must see in the documentation if everything agreed is in order and claim breaches by the appropriate means.
It is made clear that the specific case must always be evaluated and this note does not imply advice on the specific situation but rather general guidelines.
