Shop Used Cars With Only One Owner To Balance Budget and Peace of Mind
As you embark on your search for a high-quality, budget-friendly vehicle, considering used cars with one owner can actually yield favorable results. Having only been driven by one other person, these models boast a very healthy balance of quality and price. This usually means less wear and tear, easier access to maintenance history, and lower mileage totals. It also provides mental relief; one previous owner, as opposed to two or more, suggests that the vehicle has only been handled by one person.
Capital Lincoln of Wilmington stocks a diverse pre-owned inventory, including models that come with the "Show Me The CARFAX® 1 Owner" badge. In this guide, we'll discuss the advantages of selecting used cars with one owner over vehicles with two or more previous drivers.
The Benefits of Buying Used Vehicles With One Owner
Are you on the fence about buying a pre-owned model with one previous owner? Here are some of the reasons to seriously consider it:
- Likely to have less wear and tear
- Likely to have a more readily available maintenance history
- More likely to have an active warranty policy
- More likely to have fewer miles on the odometer

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if a car has only had one owner?
One surefire way to verify that a car has only had one owner is if it comes with a "Show Me The CARFAX® 1 Owner" badge. At our dealership near Myrtle Beach, SC, we carry many pre-owned models with this certification. You can also check the complimentary CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™ that comes with a purchase for records on the number of hands the car has passed through.
Why should I get a used car with only one owner?
While not a guarantee of quality, driving a car with only one previous owner typically means less wear and tear, lower mileage, and more readily available maintenance history reports. There is also the mental peace of knowing that only one prior owner has driven your car, and that it was brand-new when that person purchased it. In some cases, the warranty plan may still be in effect.

When shopping for used cars with CARFAX® on our lot near Myrtle Beach, SC, you can rest assured knowing that their sources are authorized.
