How to buy a used car from a private seller in Pueblo

  1. Compare prices. Look at several listings with similar year and mileage, in Pueblo and in nearby cities, to know what a fair price is.
  2. Ask for the VIN before you meet, and run a vehicle history report to check for accidents, flood damage and odometer issues.
  3. Meet safely in a public place, ideally a police "safe exchange" zone, during the day.
  4. Inspect and test drive. Use our inspection checklist, and for any car over a few thousand dollars, pay a local mechanic for a pre-purchase inspection.
  5. Check the paperwork. The name on the title must match the seller's ID, with no lien listed and a VIN that matches the car.
  6. Pay safely with a cashier's check or at the seller's bank. Never wire money or pay with gift cards — read how to avoid Craigslist car scams.
  7. Transfer the title through your county motor vehicle office (Colorado Division of Motor Vehicles).
Colorado tip: In Colorado, AWD and 4x4 vehicles are in high demand, and vehicles in the Denver/Front Range area may need an emissions test. Check for road-salt (magnesium chloride) corrosion underneath.
