What's the news?
As part of a Europe-wide initiative, Toyota has launched a new used car programme in Ireland. Toyota Plus aims to give customers piece of mind with their used car purchase, and numerous incentives are being offered to prospective buyers.
Each car must pass a 100-point technical inspection by a Toyota technician before it is allowed to carry the title of Toyota Plus approved used car.
Furthermore, approved cars come with 12 months free roadside assistance and a 12-month warranty as a minimum.
Punters interested in Toyota's hybrid models will be happy to note that the programme brings the benefit of an extra year of Hybrid Battery Extended Care, with all Toyota Plus approved hybrids upholding the existing Hybrid Life Assurance guarantee.
To celebrate the launch of the programme, Toyota dealerships will hold a used car sales event from October 4th to 14th, with approved cars bought during this period also availing of a free two-year service package. Toyota has been selling used cars through its nationwide dealer network since the 1970s, and claims that its vehicles retain their value longer than any other brand in this country.
Paddy Ward, Toyota Plus manager, commented: "At Toyota, we continually strive to offer unrivalled service and exceptional value to our customers and Toyota Plus is a clear demonstration of that. Customers can rest assured that they have made the right choice when buying a used Toyota from the Toyota dealer network. Not only are they benefiting from a great range of offers, they will have peace of mind when buying their used car from a trusted source, Toyota dealers, who have been selling used cars for over 40 years."
