Private car sales involve individuals selling their vehicles directly to other individuals, rather than through a dealership. The seller advertises the car, negotiates a price with the buyer, and completes the sale transaction. The buyer typically pays the seller directly, and both parties handle the necessary paperwork to transfer ownership of the vehicle. It is important for both the buyer and seller to conduct due diligence, such as inspecting the car and verifying its history, to ensure a smooth and fair transaction.
