TULLAMARINE, AUSTRALIA – Aug 31, 2011: What if a pre-owned car felt just like new? Honda believes its customers should experience this when they buy a pre-owned Honda.

The Honda Approved Pre-owned Car program was designed with this exact experience in mind.

“This program is a great initiative that gives our customers peace of mind when selecting a pre-owned Honda,” said Mr. Stephen Collins, Honda Australia’s General Manager Sales and Marketing.

Pre-owned Honda vehicles are renowned for their safety. Developed by Monash University Accident Research Centre, the Transport Accident Commission, VicRoads and the RACV , the Used Car Safety Ratings 2011 list several Honda vehicles as ‘safe picks’. The 2006-09 Honda Civic was rated one of the safest small cars, the 1995-00 Honda Odyssey one of the safest People Movers, the 2002-08 Honda Jazz was one of the top picks in the Light Car category and the 2002-06 Honda CR-V was also top of the list in the Compact SUV category.

When purchasing a pre-owned Honda, customers enjoy the highest levels of quality they expect from Honda.

Pre-owned cars must fit set criteria to be eligible for the program. They must be a well maintained, late model Honda that is less than five years old, travelled less than 100,000 km and include a full service history.

Each vehicle is then checked from the front bumper to the back bumper and are subjected to a 150 point inspection check by Honda-trained and accredited technicians. Designed by Honda Australia’s Technical Department, this comprehensive and stringent check gives customers confidence that the car they are buying is in good, safe working order.

The experience doesn’t end there. Customers also benefit from:

  • 12 months Premium Roadside Assistance
  • A 12 month/20,000 km warranty, in addition to any remaining warranty that may already apply to the vehicle
  • Membership of HondaOne, your online owner’s club with vehicle-specific information and special offers
  • A subscription to the Honda Magazine

    With more than 400,000 Honda’s on the road, customers are assured when they purchase a Honda, they receive engineering excellence and worry-free motoring.
