In the Kimberley and Western Australia, when we’re buying a car we think about where it might have been regularly used – whether on a mine site or the beach. Now you also need to think flood damage, for cars with Queensland plates that are making their way to WA. Car dealers and auctioneers don’t have to declare flood damage, but they must answer honestly if asked – so ask! In this week’s podcast with Tom Chapman from Consumer Protection WA, we talk about other things to look for – watermarks, checking floor mats and seat covers, and rusty wiring. And the old adage – if a deal is too good to be true, it’s probably too good to be true! Listen for all the details to make sure you don’t get caught out!
