Ukrainian drivers can now find out when it is profitable to sell their car. According to a study by GetHelp, after 13 years of operation, with an increase in mileage, the risk of serious malfunctions arises, which can be costly for the owner.



Once a car reaches the age of 13 years, car owners start turning to auto services significantly more often. Statistics demonstrate a clear pattern: there is a certain threshold after which the frequency of malfunctions increases significantly.


Ukrainian experts recommend not postponing the sale of the car until it turns into a permanent source of financial expenses. After 13 years of operation and mileage over 200 thousand kilometers, it's better to think about selling to avoid unexpected costs that can seriously hit the wallet.



Interesting data from the study can be useful for drivers who find it important to manage their budget effectively and avoid unnecessary expenses on repairing an old car. A smart strategy may be to sell the vehicle at the right time, allowing savings of time and money in the future.
