Please include the code which you are trying to use, so the community will be better-equipped to help you with your problem.

So I have watched AlvinBlox's tutorial on Car spawning and it works fine but I have one question

how do I make it where a player can only spawn 1 car then his previous car gets deleted?

All the scripts are in his video about it im to lazy to pull up all the scripts and the hierarchy please help

The general idea is to check if the car exists. There are a few ways you can do this, however, I would recommend doing something like this:

local result, err = pcall(function() -- catches all game-breaking errors
    return car and car.Parent
end)
if result then
    if err == true then
        -- car exists
        car:Destroy()
    else
        -- car does not exist or parent is nil
    end
else
    -- car does not exist or parent is nil
end

-- Car spawn logic

You did not provide any code, so I am not sure where you would want to place this within your script. I provided a comment at the end which should help with placement. appxritixn 2235 — 3y

Please encode Lua code in the Lua block code tag (look for the Lua icon in the editor).
local function onPlayerJoin(player)

    local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
    leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"
    leaderstats.Parent = player

    local money = Instance.new("IntValue")
    money.Name = "Money"
    money.Value = 22000
    money.Parent = leaderstats
end

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerJoin)

game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("CheckPrice").OnServerInvoke = function(player,NameOfCar)
    return game.ServerStorage.Cars:FindFirstChild(NameOfCar).Price.Value
end

game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("SpawnCar").OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player,NameOfCar)
    local car = game.ServerStorage.Cars:FindFirstChild(NameOfCar):Clone()
    car:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame + Vector3.new(0,0,15))
    car.Parent = workspace
    car:MakeJoints()
    car.Name = player.Name.."'s "..NameOfCar
end)
