There can be a plus side and a minus side to each sale. If you are buying from a prior owner of the vechile they may or may not have all the reciepts on the cars history. Although buying from a direct owner is a cheaper way to purchase a car. If you buy from a dealership it is easier to track a car but sometimes can be difficult depending on where they recieved the car. Usually when buying a used car from a dealership even if it is pricer you have a chance to buy a warrenty on the sale in case if the car breaks down after you drive off with it.
