Certified Pre-Owned vs. Pre-Owned: What's the Difference?

Mileage and the vehicle's age are crucial in distinguishing between a certified pre-owned and a regular pre-owned model. A vehicle must meet a certified pre-owned program's requirements before it can be certified. For example, a Land Rover must be under five years old and not exceed 60,000 miles on the odometer to be considered eligible for certification.

Regular pre-owned vehicles are generally less expensive than certified pre-owned and brand-new models. Certified pre-owned vehicles will not cost as much as brand-new units. You pay more for certified pre-owned models because they include warranties and meet strict standards that ensure they are in pristine condition. They offer more assurance and peace of mind than pre-owned vehicles that are around 10 years old and have already incurred more than 100,000 miles.

So which one should you buy? The key is to consider your budget and needs. If you can afford it, certified pre-owned offers more benefits. Whatever you choose, remember to look at the vehicle's history to ensure it has never been in crashes or collisions that could affect its performance.

Its mileage is an important factor that distinguishes a pre-owned vehicle from a certified pre-owned vehicle. For a vehicle to be certified, it must meet the requirements listed above.

Land Rover offers a limited 2-year/100,000-mile warranty or a 1-year/unlimited-mile warranty (whichever comes first) for added peace of mind. Warranty coverage begins upon expiration of the original new-car warranty. It covers repairs for mechanical or electrical failures that occur suddenly and without warning.

Land Rover Certified also includes 24/7 roadside assistance coverage. It covers accidents, vehicle breakdowns, and emergencies like tire punctures or lockouts. You can also enjoy trip interruption coverage. If you can't use your vehicle due to a warrantable defect, you can get reimbursements for lodging, transportation, and other necessary expenses.

The coverages are transferrable if you choose to sell your certified pre-owned Land Rover at any point. The new owner will feel confident knowing that the warranty that came with the purchase is fully transferrable.
