You’ve found a used car for sale that looks right. Now what? For a lot of buyers, the gap between liking a listing and actually owning the car is the confusing part: the viewing, the paperwork, the financing, the transfer.
This guide walks through exactly how it works when you buy a used car from Prime Car Traders, so there are no surprises. If you’re still comparing options and want the bigger picture first, our complete guide to buying a used car in Singapore covers pricing, COE, and what to check.
A good listing should tell you what you’re buying before you ever visit. On each of our used cars, you’ll find:
If anything you want to know isn’t on the page, ask us. We’d rather answer ten questions before a viewing than have you drive down unsure.
When a car catches your eye, send an enquiry or call. We’ll confirm it’s still available, answer any questions, and set up a time for you to see it in person. There’s no obligation at this stage.
This is the part you should never skip. Come and see the car in daylight, check it over, and take it for a proper test drive at real speeds. If you’d like to bring it for an independent evaluation, we’re happy to arrange it. Our used car inspection guide lays out exactly what to look at.
Most buyers don’t pay the full amount in cash, and you don’t have to. We offer in-house financing alongside the usual bank options, which often means faster approval and more flexibility.
Under MAS rules, you can borrow up to 70% of the price if the car’s OMV is $20,000 or below, and up to 60% above that, over a tenure of up to 7 years. We’ll lay out the monthly figure and the total cost so you can choose a plan that works, not just the lowest monthly number.
If you’re replacing a car, you can trade it in as part of the deal. We’ll value your existing car and offset it against your new one, which saves you selling it separately. Bring your car’s details when you visit and we can give you a figure.
Once you’ve decided, we handle the paperwork. That includes the transfer of ownership, settling any financing, and making sure road tax and insurance are sorted before you drive away. Because we do this every day, the parts that feel daunting to a first-time buyer are routine for us.
The sale isn’t the end of the relationship. We’ve been in the trade for over 40 years, and we have a service centre behind every car we sell. If something needs attention after you’ve driven off, you have somewhere to bring it.

Can I test drive a used car before buying?
Yes. We encourage a proper test drive at real speeds, and you’re welcome to arrange an independent evaluation from Vicom or STA before you decide.
Do you offer financing on used cars?
Yes. We offer in-house financing as well as bank options. Under MAS rules you can borrow up to 70% of the price if the car’s OMV is $20,000 or below, and up to 60% above that, with a tenure of up to 7 years.
Can I trade in my old car?
Yes. We’ll value your current car and offset it against the one you’re buying, so you don’t have to sell it separately. Bring your car’s details to your viewing for a figure.
