How do I Find a Used Ford Crown Victoria?

Take the time to do a thorough search of all available used car resources when looking to buy a used Ford Crown Victoria. Because the Ford Crown Victoria has been around since 1955, and has gone through several stylistic changes over the year, you should determine what year and style you are interested in before embarking on your search. Always test drive a car and have a reputable mechanic take a look at a car that you are interested in purchasing.

Instructions

1

Go to the local used car dealerships in your area and look over their stock for a Ford Crown Victoria. If they don't have any available on the lot, ask a salesman if he can call you if one becomes available. Additionally, large dealerships, such as CarMax, carry listings from their entire United States inventory on their websites. Just do a search for a Ford Crown Victoria.

2

Check with your local new car dealerships and on their websites, as well. Most dealers sell all models of used cars not just the ones they officially carry, as they take them in on trades.

Check out the classified advertisements in your area newspapers for a Crown Victoria.

4

Search Ebay listings. Ebay has a large number of used car listings. Type in Ford Crown Victoria into the website's search engine and look over your options. You can restrict the search so that it will only show you certain cars, such as ones made in certain years or cars that are located near your home.

Research a reputable online used car site such as Autotrader.com for its available cars. Autotrader.com is the website for the automotive classified newspaper by the same name. This site has listings from both private parties and dealers. Autotrader.com also has car listings from all across the United States.
