You might think that when purchasing a vehicle, you only have two options: a new, shiny car that depreciates right off the lot, or a questionable used car with an unknowable past. However, a third option is now available: Certified Pre-Owned vehicles combine the best qualities of used and new vehicles to help you save money and have peace of mind that your car will last you a while.
At Volkswagen of Corpus Christi, we’ve got a number of Certified Pre-Owned VWs that are sure to catch your eye. Let’s take a look at what separates our Certified Pre-Owned VW cars, trucks, and SUVs from the used cars on our competitors’ lots.
New Car Assurance meets Used Car Prices with Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles
Volkswagen Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles are put through their paces when we buy them back from the previous owner. They’re subjected to a comprehensive 100+ Point Dealer Inspection. If it doesn’t pass muster, it’s not certified until we’re able to repair it with genuine VW parts until it’s good as new.
To make sure each Certified Pre-Owned Volkswagen vehicle has a clean bill of health, we commission a detailed CARFAX® Vehicle History Report. This report gives you valuable insights into issues like title problems, ownership history, prior accidents, and more, so you can make an informed decision to buy or pass on a vehicle.
For the ultimate peace of mind with your Certified Pre-Owned VW, the Model-Specific Limited Warranty has you covered for repairs and other maintenance on your VW, depending on the model, year, and condition of your new-to-you car. It’s just another way that we here at Volkswagen of Corpus Christi show we care.
For the Ultimate Value, is Used or Certified Pre-Owned the Better Choice?
While a Certified Pre-Owned car, truck, or SUV is going to be cheaper than a brand new one, all that inspecting, repairing, and guaranteeing ends up making it cost a bit more than a non-certified used car. Especially since Certified Pre-Owned autos top out at around 60,000 miles or 6 years of age, if you want a bargain-basement beater, a used car is a good-enough choice that’ll get you where you need to go.
Used cars are cost-savers in more than just sticker price. Since a used car has already depreciated more of its value before you bought it, it’ll depreciate less during your time with it. Because it’s worth less than a new or Certified Pre-Owned car, a used car will cost less to insure, and if you live in a car-tax state, you’ll probably pay less in taxes, too. You can also order your own CARFAX® or other vehicle history report.
However, the service professionals at Volkswagen of Corpus Christi know what to look for in pre-owned VWs, and how to fix any problem they might find. So if you want a quality ride that won’t quit on you because of a bad part or something easily fixed, Certified Pre-Owned is the right path for you.
