Buy with Confidence
Safety Certification Report
Our highly skilled mechanics conduct an exhaustive inspection of over 101 points for each vehicle to determine if it’s eligible for resale under our Certified program standards. Each Certified Pre-Owned vehicle must meet or exceed an intensive quality check which includes mechanical, safety, and appearance criteria. At Suttons, only the highest quality pre-owned vehicles achieve certification.
Auto Protection Plan
We go the extra mile with every Certified Pre-Owned vehicle by including our comprehensive Auto Protection Plan. As every vehicle has gone through our intensive Safety Certification Inspection to determine its eligibility in our program, we can confidently include, what we believe to be, one of the leading protection plans available at no additional cost to you.
Peace of Mind
7 Day Exchange [v1]
Why you might change your mind doesn’t matter but rest assured with the Suttons Certified Pre-Owned program, if you do decide on a different vehicle within the first seven days of ownership you can exchange it at any of our eligible Sydney locations.
Two Sets Of Keys
It’s a simple idea, but every Certified Pre-Owned vehicle is sold with two sets of keys – just like a new car. Yes, the second set of keys helps in many ways but did you know replacing a lost key can sometimes be an expensive venture and that’s the kind of headache and worry we don’t want you facing. A Certified Pre-Owned car is not just another used car; it’s a commitment to your peace of mind.
