Chah! How is the Lairget? Hopas it is good. With me, is it good. I'm a little sick the last week, but now I'm well I'm good again. So, yeah, it was therefore as

no pod-avsnit came out the first week. So, I beg them for that.

But now is I back. And today I'm about that I have kept,

or we have kept a car a bill. And therefore I, that it is

a great idea to be to be able how you can't a beggna'd and a beggna'd bill

is a bill that isn't new that it has already one or or several or have

had had an or a few I'm not new but it's not a new but it's

and I bought this this car in Valencia in Spain and so I have gone

gone through the process and it is a process that you can learn so you

learn she much of and And, yeah, it is an interesting process also, even if it's a little jobby. But I think that it could be

maybe unvend-bart for you who listening on this podden, for you who are interested in Sweden, and maybe borer in Sweden, and

especially if you thinker on to buy a a begagned in Sweden. So I think I

would go through how you know how you can't a beggna in Sweden

and also about my my billchop here in Spain so

yeah we we we we're all So, to buy a begogneed

in Sweden. So first and first and first and we have we do think

on what sort of we looker, which type of bill we looker.

So, to example, how store should it be how many

saten will we have? And the the oneliest is to have

five sateen, so place for five people. And it can be an sedan, a cup, or an combo.

An combo in in Sweden is a bill with a little extra last outrime. It's

is a little stiller lengst back so that you can place with a little more

things. A combo. I come up that when I was little then we had we a Volvo 740 and it was a combo and it's quite a very

for families to buy a combo for that you have a little more place. A sedan it is when the last outriumet

is little and the back the back stick out like you can say and then

we can say we're between commby and sedan and it is a cupee so

cupe has a little more rounded form um yeah

you can maybe better that you can better that you look on Google

and We have exactly how it looks how it looks at. We have also a suv a suv

it is a little more trended the same 20 years maybe so how

big big how many sateen also important which what

drive medel we will have drive medel it is you

what which which sort of bransley so we have a

benzil that drives of benzin diesel, oil or an hybrid

and I and I and my when we let out after the car

okay drive medel was not so important theremote we had a

coupé and then so then so there are different sorts of vexeloders so vexelodan it is you there's manual

vexelodda or so there is automatic so will you have an automatic vexled or an bill

with manual vexelodda and And the we Kept, it manual. And then it also

important to think about which is what you are so clare. So that is a important parameter.

So when you know this so you're to look to and the

vanliest in the is to search online on blocket. So blocket is a webplats where you

hit a mass, mass, many different things and it's it's one-that-can-the-vanliest if you want to let after a begagned bill. So go to blocket and so filterer you the ...suching after, to example, ...bilmerke, which market,

like, like, Citroeng, or Mercedes, or Volvo. It is... ...bilmerket. It's filtrera after-aursmodel, also, which, or, this car,

has been made... And it's very important for that, the older bill, the better bill,

but also more more risk for problem. And you filter after price, and you

filterer also after mil-tal. So what is mil-tal? Jo, it is

how many mil has got. And a mile in Sweden is 10

kilometers. So, an mile is not same as a mile on English. A mile in in Sweden is 10 kilometers. So, if the car got 15,000

mile, it's it that it has worked 150,000 kilometers. And you can buy the car bilen from a private person or from

an billhandler. An billhandler, is the is the boutique where you can buy cars. And it is often a little billier to

buy from an private person but from an billhandler there you often often an guarantee also if something goes or

maybe one year's guarantee or two year's guarantee

or something and we we we we we we

we took it on a app in Spain so there

other app and and the the car we

gillade that we we kept it was a C4

from 2018 2018 so And we were glad to hit a little newer bill for that I thought that we should be able to buy a car that was a little elder.

But, yeah, and our budget, we have had many outgifted, to example, with brulop and such things, so, so budgeted, I tried to have it, little strict, so I sat first, $5,000 euro. But this

car bill, this car was on $6,800 euro. And it is like 70,000 croons.

But we think, okay, we, we call it in all fall, and it had just got 70,000

kilometers, so 7,000 mile. And, 2018 year's model and it was a private person

so so yeah so we hited that the and we we went and we went and we could

do provkirer so at provkirer the next step so when you have hitat an bill

as you like you go then you go then you go and look at

and prov-kirr and first then first then so we do

an visual inspection of the so we we are

on the on the sides there to rost is

the bruna that come on metal if it has

if it has it's been given scaders or fuktskoders and like that and then then, then can the billen begin rost and that is not so so, look after rost, look after other

scardor on the on the out-sidan. You can you ask if the car reparerats. I'm, have the bill

been with with on a crock, and then So, there is much that have repaired. So it can be good to know. Kohl the deck. A deck, it is this gummy thing that sits on the jule.

So we have, the billen has four jule, and on every jule, there is a deck. So, call on the deck. But call also service book or service history

the service history. So be the seller to be seller to be salesgarten to visit book or service history and, and yeah, and that did we also when we were and called

on on the bill and we had with us a compis also. for that we are not yet good on that

we have not so much kind of about and this this was the first

going for me as I kept a car so I I felt that I

didn't too too so I asked a comice if he could

follow me and, yeah, be with and, like, call

the car and so. And it was absolutely recommender that's to take

with a compice who can bilar. Okay? And then then, after

the visual inspection so is it's dacx to provkirra billen.

So first then you, so set you and so start you are you

the best is to start when the motor is a call so an cold start for then then can see if there

are some problems for those problems can't not be seen if motor is warm when you start it's so that it's good to look when you start

the car, that you can call when the motor is cold. And the first you're instrument breadan.

So instrument breadan is what you see from you, so that that gives hastiness,

that gives varvital, so you see it, so it can there can find as warning

lamps on on instrument breadan. So it can be good to look at

on instrument bradden there are some warning lamps

and see all good out and all all

all all different regal and so things we

we we also listen on the motor so

so it and the motor normally and so

and so so Then we're We're We take a little Runda with Bielen

We take a little A little TUR And we listen on the motor We

We We vexler Up and we We vexler Ne Like it's It's good To vexla

That vexla That we That wexel You know You in frilague And so

So, then, wexel to two-an, and so wexler to three-an, you know, and then, and then, and then, and then backer man,

and then, and then, how it is to back-a. So, back-a, is, when the bill is back-out. It is to back-up.

And, yeah, so we testar vexel-lodan, and vexelspaken. Then, then test we also Brompsa. So,

And to bromsa the car is that you can you can press on

the so that the wheel stander okay it is to bromsa so

you can put you down the and then then it's to

so it is to bring and so it is important to

test the bromcer bra bromcer the the car brapser the car

raked so it doesn't not at not another whole but

all funca good and so yeah I'm on small ways

and in all different and and test so

and if all if all fun up up but

but one thing is important and my A compis said it also to me.

All right, all thing is, all thing is everything is you, gillard you to carry the car to be good for

you to car to car so, you know you be very quavam? Also, gillard you

to carry to car so it is also so-court to think on. And then then,

after pro-kjuring So if you're If you're so so so is it very very

good to call the history on transport stirelsen and transport

stirelsen is a community in Sweden so you can take the

billens registerings number and look to look up the on Transportstirelsen's

homeside Registrerings number is the number that is on registration shilting

for to example ABC 123 is registreings number and it

is on registreings sylten so call up this this this is this

this number on Transportstirelsen. And there can see, to example, how many the owner has been had.

You can see when the car been the last was on besickning. And you can see if

miltalet is correct. So, to example, in my fall, so was miltalet

or kilometer in this this 50,000 kilometers. And I called on

Spanians Motswavirical to Transportstiret So there is a so So I

called it so I called it the registrings number I laid in it there and I

could see the car had so many I'm that miltale was

correct I saw when the billen had besickigats and so so very good information and yeah

so it so it so bad out the car to carry everything saw good so yeah

we were nought and we were mired and we willer buy the okay so now next step

and it is the shopet. For now it's a to forhandla. To

forhandla that you know, you know, you're on the prism and

the seller saying, okay, the car, car, six-thust €

okay, then I can say that, no, I think that we should have a

other price. So, to example, I can say, can we go near in price? It means that we forhandler, okay? I say that, no, but, but, the, the car has this fell, or I think that this price is more rimly. And seller says, okay, we can do so here, okay, it is to forhandler. And I will, then, pruta on the price.

To pruta It means that You know that Man For near Priset And I are very

Dolig on to pruta I am very Obequv with to pruta

Deremot My Frue She is from Morocco She is She is

She is Van to pruta And she She is very good on

To put She She then, and then, I'm getting the

price from 6,800 euro to 6,000 euro. And I was very

imponer over that. I think that it was a very good

job at pruta to pruta near price to 6,000 so 800

euro Lager. So so that did we and then But, the day

after, so we met on a... We met and... and... ...utfered the shopet,

so... So, next step is, you, to write a ...contract. Also, a contract over

billchopet. And, in Sweden, so can you can you hit

gratis malls for a contract on the consument

work here in Spain we on I don't even

what it is we were on a gestoria so we

were on a sort there they they they are

so these things and there we a contract

and and the and the and the car so it

means that from and then it's we who are we who are

I'm that I am that is being an bill now

and when the car so must you must you

can register this here at transport stire in

the so you go to Transportstirelson and that can you do online for our deal here in

Spain so we did we did it on the the contort so

clart the car we've been we were 6,000 euro fatigate

and glad new bill so so then we clara

no not not have been a car, so there still are important

things to do. So first and first and you have a for shakering. So in

Sweden must you have an for your car on first day.

And, yeah, to forsacra the it's it means that

you have a for a security and if

the problem if it is not problem if the

car or or on some car or or

if the carverer mid on motor way okay

then then then betal for the for the

for for or in all a lot of it, or in all the part of it, which one

you have. You must teckna an forsharing. And, yeah, we fixed

a first same day. It was pretty big, we tecknared

a whole for a whole for and it cost

500 euro for whole year. So, so you can

have whole-fersacring and half-fersercring. And after we took a pretty good price, so we alled we a whole-fershackering. Then, then, you

bethaling Fodonskatt. And it is a scat in Sweden, that you betal for the car every year.

Fodonskatt, he is. And an other important thing is that you have then you're then besiecting billen

and in in Sweden is it every 14th month for beggnated bieler so

every 14th month you besicggy bill and on billbesickning so

control they that all is okay with the that it is churdugly

also it it douger to to be on the way so it

is important that you have call on when the car besightgings

and where you can do that and so and an other thing that is

important in the is that we have two different different

different different of deck so on winter between first December

and 31st March, then you have winter deck on the car in all fall when

it is winter way, so it must you have on call on, it is

there is on deck, so deck that you can use on around,

but oftenest have people summer deck and winter deck, so.

Yeah, but that was well all about all about this this thing is

very good to have a a car a big a strong for me and especially for me,

also we have also have been a garage place a garage place or a parking for that we are mid-inthru

and it is extremely difficult to hit a parking on the parking so we have had been to hire a parking place

and it costs it 100 euro in the mona so yeah not really great-cule

extra outgift but yeah it we can we really so yeah

I hope that this this was interesting for you, even if you not planer to buy a beggained car

so can it be good to know these things and especially to learn you the words that have

with with the car and the carergand to do. So I

hope that it was ammanbable you can as said to try transcribering
