Inspecting a Used Bus – Expert Advice

Mr. Nguyen Van A, a vehicle appraisal expert at XE TẢI HÀ NỘI, shares: “When buying a used bus, besides thoroughly checking the paperwork, you need to pay special attention to the engine, transmission, and chassis. Bring an experienced mechanic for an accurate assessment.”

Here are some important things to keep in mind:

Exterior Inspection – First Impressions Matter

Body: Carefully inspect for dents, scratches, and rust. Pay attention to the gaps between body panels, ensuring they are even.
Tires: Check tire wear and tear and examine the manufacturing date.
Lights: Ensure all lights are functioning correctly.

Interior Check – Assessing the Passenger Space

Seats: Inspect the condition of the seats and seatbelts.
Dashboard: Ensure all functions are working properly.
Air Conditioning: Test the cooling capacity.

Under the Hood – Engine and Chassis Inspection

Engine Start: Listen for smooth engine operation without unusual noises.
Oil Check: Ensure the oil is clean and free of debris.
Test Drive: Evaluate the bus’s handling, smooth gear shifting, and braking performance.

Feng Shui for Used Buses – Choosing an Auspicious Date
