When shopping for a vehicle, it’s crucial to ask all the questions, especially when browsing previously owned models. Here at Land Rover Asheville, you could try out a Certified Pre-Owned Land Rover as well as standard used vehicles at your convenience. You may ask what the differences are between a typical used car and a Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) vehicle. Both types of vehicles have advantages, but is one better than the other? What are the key differences?
Rigorous Inspection Guarantees Quality
CPO vehicles are lightly used and repaired with genuine Land Rover parts. They go through a rigorous 165-point inspection performed by a certified Land Rover technician. This list includes an engine check, road test, paintwork, interior cleaning, and final inspection — plus much more. The vehicle must pass all 165 items to be certified. You will also have access to a full vehicle history report for full transparency.
Extensive Warranty Protects Your Investment
Another advantage of a CPO vehicle is the warranty. This extended warranty is backed by Land Rover and covers repairs by our trained technicians with no deductible during the entire length of the warranty. It also includes 24/7 roadside assistance. Trip Interruption benefits also cover the cost of lodging and other expenses due to any defects covered by the warranty. There are options for vehicle coverage for one year with unlimited miles or two years with 100,000 miles. Should you decide to sell your CPO vehicle, the warranty is transferable, so the new owner can have peace of mind.
Better Value for Drivers
Used vehicles generally are more cost-effective than CPO vehicles. However, most used cars don’t pass through a rigorous inspection and do not include a dealership warranty. When you buy a used car, the original owner most likely absorbed most of the value depreciation that typically comes in the first year of owning a new vehicle. Afterward, the next owner won’t lose its value as quickly. Used cars may look like a better deal, but CPO vehicles are usually more dependable, have lower mileage, and require fewer repairs.
