Approved Used Car Warranty
Every Approved Used Mercedes-Benz comes with a guarantee of at least 12 months' comprehensive unlimited mileage warranty. The warranty is valid for up to 60 days driving per annum in the Republic of Ireland and mainland Europe. If your car is being repaired under warranty, we'll pay up to £50 per day (including VAT) towards the cost of a replacement vehicle.
The Approved Used Car Programme and all associated benefits are only valid for Approved Used Vehicles that are sold and utilised within the UK. Any re-sale or passing on of the vehicle outside of the UK will render any benefits of the Programme invalid.
Approved Used Car Programme
Style, safety and reliability all as standard
Our Approved Used Car Programme guarantees the incomparable driving experience that you expect of Mercedes-Benz.
We scrutinise every car to guarantee you the peace of mind you would normally associate with buying a brand new car. Only vehicles that have passed our rigorous safety, mechanical, electrical and history checks are awarded our 12 months' unlimited mileage warranty, 12 months' roadside assistance and our 30-day / 1,000-mile exchange plan.
Multi-point check
Every Approved Used car has been meticulously checked inside and out, under the bonnet and on the road by a specialist Mercedes-Benz technician. When the technician signs the multi-point check sheet it is your guarantee that everything is in perfect working order.
Vehicle history
We make a point of checking every car's provenance - making sure it has no outstanding finance charges and is not registered as stolen or as an insurance write-off. You will even receive a certificate to confirm that the chassis and registration numbers are the same as those recorded by the DVLA.
Vehicle mileage check
You can be sure of exactly how many miles an Approved Used car has covered. Every vehicle comes with a certificate confirming that the recorded mileage is genuine. Vehicles first registered to Mercedes-Benz UK Ltd or a Retailer demonstrator are excluded.
MOT test failure cover
Protection for your next MOT after you have purchased your Approved Used vehicle. It covers the cost of replacing, repairing or altering covered parts (up to a maximum of £750 inc VAT*) that have caused the car to fail its MOT within 30 days of the due date. Cover runs for at least one year.
* Price subject to change as of 1 December 2008 due to VAT reduction, please contact your Retailer for further details.
Exchange plan
Should you decide that you are not satisfied with your car for any reason, you are welcome to exchange it at any time during the first 30 days or 1,000 miles (terms and conditions apply).
Vehicle handover
Our handover process is just as comprehensive for used cars as it is for new ones. Our sales staff will give you all the relevant paperwork and certificates and will take you through a detailed checklist to ensure you know everything about your benefits under the Approved Used Cars Programme.
Roadside assistance
Mercedes-Benz cars are covered by a unique Roadside Assistance package that ensures you are back on the road with minimum inconvenience (free cover is for a minimum of 12 months).
If your vehicle was initially registered after 24 October 1998, and has regular Mercedes-Benz Official Workshop servicing, it may also qualify for one of our Mobilo programmes.
For full details on Mercedes-Benz Roadside Assistance products, including length and level of cover, please see our T&Cs or contact our Customer Assistance Centre on 00800 1 777 7777.
