Why's it so important to take a test drive
At the risk of sounding cheesy, buying a new car is an emotional process.
That’s not because some of the prices will have you crying but because your new car needs to feel right for you and suit your driving style and lifestyle.
Even if you own an Aston Martin DB9, if it doesn’t suit your lifestyle, you’re probably going to regret your investment.
Written reviews and manufacturer buyers guides are excellent resources helping you to make a decision on your ideal car, but there’s no substitute to getting behind the wheel.
That way you can get a feel of the car, how it handles, visibility and more importantly, whether it’s the one for you.
What to do on a test drive
We’ve created a handy test drive video at the top of the page which outlines what you should aim to do when taking a new car test drive.
We’ve cherry picked the best protocol for a new car test drive:
- Test drive the vehicle you’re interested in - Where possible test the exact model you’re thinking of buying rather than a derivative of the same model as they could handle completely differently.
- Drive route – Try and test the car on a variety of road surfaces and types which require different speeds and different styles of driving. That way you’ll get as detailed an impression of the car as possible.
- The longer the better – The more time you spend behind the wheel the more you’ll know if it’s the one for you.
- Park it – Parking is one of the hardest things to do in a car so see how you cope in your potential new car.
- Lifestyle – The most important aspect of a new car is whether it suits your lifestyle – Test drives provide the best insight into a car’s suitability.
