Used Van Extended Warranties
An unexpected issue with your new-to-you commercial vehicle can put something of a dampener on things, which is why all of the vehicles we supply here at Ideal Commercials come with a free 3-month (or up to 3,000-mile) used or new van warranty as standard.Â
All our customers are eligible for our complimentary 3-month warranties; we’re proud to take the pressure off should anything go wrong. Claim limits may vary, speak to a member of our team for more details.Â
Whether you’re buying a Mercedes-Benz truck, a Ford Transit van or a Land Rover Defender, you can be guaranteed complete peace of mind when you leave our forecourt. And don’t worry, when your initial van warranty runs out, you can speak to us about our extended warranty options.Â
What Our Free Used Commercial Van Warranty Covers:
Our warranty covers your new purchase for any manufacturing default or defect, whether it be mechanical or electrical. This means you can rest assured knowing that you won’t have to cough up if your commercial vehicle develops an unexpected fault within the first 3 months, or 3,000 miles (whatever comes first).
Why Take Out an Extended Warranty?
To protect your commercial vehicle beyond the first 3 months of ownership, extended warranties are also available to purchase.Â
As the owner of a new-to-you commercial vehicle, the cost of mechanical repairs should anything go wrong can be worrying; taking out an extended warranty removes the stress of having to pay big, unexpected bills for a small extra fee.
If you’re a business owner, you’ll appreciate that the costs of running commercial vehicles these days are high. Any added financial strain brought about due to breakdowns or malfunctions can be avoided with the simple purchase of a warranty.
Why Choose Ideal Commercials?
We know that your commercial vehicle is a vital part of your business, so the purchase of it, and the protection of it, needs to be hassle-free and in your best interests.Â
We’re proud to be a dealership that provides that peace of mind here at Ideal Commercials, with a vast range of high-quality commercial vehicles in stock, and used and new commercial van warranty packages that are available to protect your vehicle beyond our complimentary 3-month warranty period.Â
