The government a few weeks ago, the second-hand car industry to put out your fire made a new decision. This by decision In advertisements for used cars, the price of the vehicles could not be written higher than the new ones. For sellers who do not comply with this decision, up to 300 thousand TL fine would be applied. Unfortunately, the regulation that entered into force on July 15, 2023 has did not show the expected effect.

Some dealers and citizens who want to sell their vehicles despite the arrangement They keep the prices above what they should be. In addition, with the prices of some cars in the ad, Actual selling prices are also different.. Let’s take a closer look at some advertisements on the Internet.

Here’s one of the ads

Above is the ad for the 2023 Citroën C4 X model. If we look at the current Citroën price list, we can see that 1,461,400 TL is requested for this vehicle’s new vehicle. Since it says “Vol + vol”, it is again in the Citroën price list. all options added to the vehicle. Even in this case, we came across a price of 1,534,604 TL. If the owner of the vehicle owns this vehicle, 1,589,000 tolls He wrote. No one knows how the price is determined.

One of the most preferred vehicles in Turkey is the Hyundai i20. A price of 1,085,000 TL is requested for the above vehicle. The price on Hyundai’s website is 920,271 TL. In addition, Hyundai does not offer an option price list for this model. It is not clear how option prices are determined and how the vehicle is advertised at this price.

Almost every brand has a similar situation.

Here’s another message. The gallery has written 1,165,000 TL for the 2023 Opel Corsa model. However, the price of the same vehicle on Opel’s website is 1,134,900 TL. Add to that the metallic color difference. 1,147,612 TL we see the price…

Renault is highly recommended…

This car, for which 1,150,000 TL is requested, Renault website With all options added, it will cost 1,114,250 TL.

Same for Toyota Corolla.

The Toyota Corolla Hybrid Passion X-Pack vehicle, which a foreigner wanted to sell and posted a few days ago, appears on the brand’s website as 1,521,650 TL, including the metallic color option price. Vehicle owner, He wants 128,350 TL more.

As you can see in the examples above, with almost every brand A similar situation arises. As we continue our make and model research, we are sure these examples will multiply.

The prices on the websites of the brands are also frequently seen!

Again on the same advertising sites the price list of the brands function as it is There are also some cars. The post above is one of them. On Honda’s website we see that 2,234,000 TL is being asked for the 2022 Honda Accord Executive+ model. The seller posted the same price. Technically in this post there is no illegal.

However, the actual sales price of the vehicle may differ from the price in the advertisement!

The regulation came into force on 15 July The most interesting thing: The regulation only restricts the advertised prices of vehicles. There are no restrictions on selling used vehicles at a higher price than new.

Let’s say we call the owner of the Honda Accord and say we want to buy the vehicle. The seller can declare to us that he wants a price of 2 million 500 thousand TL. Even we accept this price and we can buy at the desired price. There are no restrictions on this.
