Aston Martin announced the launch of their new Timeless pre-owned program.
Buying a high-end exotic sports car is a decision you make with your heart, not your head. But if your head can’t overcome your heart to get around the typically enormous costs involved in purchasing, maintaining, and swallowing the depreciation on such an extravagance, going the certified pre-owned route can be a compelling alternative.
Timeless allows potential customers the possibility of purchasing a second-hand Aston Martin built within the last ten years, ranging from the ubiquitous Vantage and DB9 to the rare and exclusive V12 Zagato and One-77 – but with several advantages. Each vehicle is inspected and certified by the automaker and comes covered by a comprehensive one-year warranty, including roadside assistance.
Customers are also offered discounts on upgraded equipment, and even get a special handover package. Of course most of the vehicles (save for the aforementioned latter rarities) will also be cheaper than buying new, but offer more peace-of-mind than otherwise buying used.
The program has already launched in the UK, continental Europe, and the Middle East, and will launch in the Far East and the Americas after the start of the new year.
