We understand so many buyers are swayed by the lower costs of a pre-owned BMW vehicle at BMW of Silver Spring. However, people can also be hesitant about buying a vehicle that has been owned before.
Today, we’re highlighting the perks of buying a pre-owned vehicle and what to look out for.
Check the Vehicle History Report
A vehicle history report is basically a snapshot of your vehicle’s life thus far. It shows if it has been in an accident or has any open recalls. It also shows if it has received the repairs and maintenance it needs. You can see how the vehicle was used previously (personally, as a rental, commercially, etc.) and how many owners it has had.
Take a Test Drive
A test drive is an important part of any vehicle research, whether new or pre-owned, although it’s particularly crucial with a pre-owned vehicle. You want to ensure that everything is functioning properly, and the drive is smooth. You’ll also want to test out the same things you would normally. Does it have the space you need? How do you feel navigating it in and out of traffic? Can you park it comfortably?
Consider a BMW Certified Vehicle
Still apprehensive? You might want to consider a BMW Certified vehicle. They can give you the peace of mind you crave when buying a pre-owned vehicle. They must pass a meticulous inspection process to qualify as Certified. They are also backed by a one-year Unlimited Mileage Protection Plan to protect you in the unlikely event an issue should pop up.
