Buy or RENT Your Next Car in Puerto Vallarta with Eric Flores
Hola Amigos!
My husband and I moved to Puerto Vallarta from Chicago earlier this year.
While Uber and Taxi’s are plentiful and affordable, we decided we wanted to buy a car for longer days trips.
We did not want to buy a new car, although they are more affordable in Mexico than the US. So we started our search for a used car. WOW! What an eye-opener. Used cars have a small inventory in Puerto Vallarta. People do not trade in cars every few years like in the US. And used cars can command a heftier price than that same car in the US.
So our search begins. Our Spanish is limited (we’re working on it), but we kind of get by. Let me tell you, it is in fact difficult dealing with someone in this situation who ONLY speaks Spanish. Over the course of 2 weeks, looked at maybe 4-5 cars, and it was a bit uncomfortable and intimidating, to buy a car in a foreign land. We found several “car flippers” here. Not the original owner. And sometimes the documents and title were….suspicious.
If you are looking for a reliable used car in Puerto Vallarta, I have found the fastest, safest and most reliable option!!
One day on Facebook, Eric Flores of Easy Car PV found me and offered his services. For a small 7 % fee of the purchase price, he would help me find the car that we wanted in our budget, he would “kick the tires”, take it for a ride, shoot video, review all of the seller’s documents and tax records, search accident records, and if we decided to move forward there would be a full inspection of the car, he was to transport the car if it was not in Puerto Vallarta, have the car detailed and delivered it to our door! This sounded great! So met with Eric and signed a contract to work with him for 30 days.
Within 1 week he found us a couple possibilities in Guadalajara, which is about 4 hours away. (Cars in Guadalajara tend to be in better condition and sometimes a little cheaper). He went to Guadalajara but neither car panned out. 1 was sold and the other did not live up to expectations.
Week 2, he found 2 more cars, again in Guadalajara. He made the journey and called me and said he thought he had the car for us! It was a Renault Duster with low miles and well cared for. We moved forward and in a few days the car was detailed and Eric even went to Unirse, Secretary of Administration on our behalf and had the registration, title and plates moved to our name and he delivered the car to our door!
WELL WORTH THE 7% commission! DO NOT try to buy a car on your own here in Mexico!
Eric loves the thrill of the search and the find! “Tell us which car you’re looking for, and we’ll help you find the most suitable options for you, always considering your budget and the best quality of the vehicle you’ll be driving looking into the 120 security points and all the structure of the car. We say: ¡USED CAR, LIKE NEW! Furthermore, we make sure that the car comes with all the necessary documents and is in a perfect legal situation in México. By acquiring your car with us, you’ll have confidence in the purchasing process and when you’re driving with your family and friends on board.”
AND NOW THEY ARE OFFERING CAR RENTAL SERVICES!
