Episode Details

Israel's 83% purchase tax on new cars makes the used market hyper-competitive, but also full of traps. In this episode, we break down a three-pillar strategy for buying a reliable used car in Israel: which brands and models actually hold up (Toyota Corolla, Mazda 3, Suzuki Swift, Honda Civic), a four-point pre-purchase inspection protocol that catches expensive problems before you own them, and where to find deals — including the leasing company hack. If you're shopping for a used car in Israel and want to avoid a Renault-shaped financial mistake, this one's for you.
