Why Buy Certified Pre-Owned at the Krause Auto Group


Why Buy Certified Pre-Owned at the Krause Auto Group

The Certified Pre-Owned title isn’t just handed out — it’s earned. Here at the Krause Auto Group, our many dealerships stock and sell unique brands, and besides Lotus, each of our exclusive brands offers a pre-owned certification program. These programs include rigorous testing and inspections, age and mileage restrictions and more. Some could even say that a Certified Pre-Owned vehicle from Aston Martin, Ford, Genesis, Hyundai, Lamborghini, Lincoln, Koenigsegg, McLaren, Mercedes-Benz and Rolls-Royce could rival their new lineups. But we’ll let you be the judge of that.

We’re proud that our many dealerships across Georgia are qualified to certify our favorite brands. Check out the many Certified Pre-Owned programs you could participate in below.

Our Certified Pre-Owned Programs

Timeless Certified Pre-Owned Aston Martin

The Timeless Certified Pre-Owned Program by Aston Martin maintains the same British quality and character in pre-owned Aston Martin models as when they were brand new. Pre-owned Aston Martin vehicles must be up to 10 years of age and exclude “special projects” (such as Vulcan, One-77, Lagonda Taraf). Our factory-trained technicians complete the Aston Martin Multipoint Timeless Inspection before the vehicle receives certification. With your purchase, not only will you have the guarantee that only Aston Martin trained technicians will work on your vehicle using genuine parts, but your Timeless Certified Pre-Owned Aston Martin comes with a 12-month/unlimited mileage warranty and 12 months of Aston Martin Roadside Assistance.

Ford Blue Advantage Program

Experience the quality and affordability of the new Blue Certified Used Car program from Ford. While every vehicle in our showrooms and posted online is a model we’d drive ourselves, you’ll have even more confidence behind the wheel of a Ford Certified model. This new program offers two levels of certification to our used and Certified inventory. After passing the rigorous multipoint inspection set by our knowledgeable technicians and meeting other requirements, the model will become a Blue Certified Used Vehicle, or if it’s a Ford, a Gold Certified Used Vehicle. And each level comes with a clean CARFAX history report, limited warranty and more.

Genesis Certified

Besides loving the eye-catching style and modern luxury of your Genesis Certified model, you’ll be impressed with the many generous warranties. After meeting the age and mileage requirements (2017 or newer Genesis G70, G80 or G90 and fewer than 60,000 miles) and passing its 191-point inspection with our team, the Genesis Certified model comes with a 6-Year/75,000-Mile Limited Warranty, the remainder of its original 10-Year/100,000-Mile Powertrain Limited Warranty and 10 years and unlimited miles of Roadside Assistance. All of that plus a complimentary, detailed CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™? How could it get better than this?

Hyundai Certified Pre-Owned

Similar to its luxury counterpart, the Hyundai brand also offers many generous warranties. But before receiving certification, pre-owned Hyundai models must be less than five years old, have less than 60,000 miles, pass a 173-point inspection and produce a clean CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™. Once our technicians have given the pre-owned Hyundai their new title, the vehicle will be protected by the remainder of its 5-Year/60,000-Mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty, a 10-Year/100,000-Mile CPO Powertrain Limited Warranty and 10 years and unlimited miles of Roadside Assistance. For peace of mind with every drive, consider a Certified Pre-Owned Hyundai.

Selezione Lamborghini Certified Pre-Owned

The Selezione program certifies models from one of the most well-known exotic brands in the world: Lamborghini. The certification process is completed by qualified technicians of the House of the Raging Bull, using exclusively original spare parts. Once the pre-owned Lamborghini passes, drivers will enjoy an additional Lamborghini warranty ranging from a minimum of 12 months to a maximum of 24 months. Covering parts and labor, the warranty will ensure that only qualified Lamborghini technicians will complete repairs using only original components. And for even further peace of mind, 24/7 Roadside Assistance is given for the duration of the warranty.

Lincoln Certified Pre-Owned

Every American-made Lincoln is a head-turner, but Lincoln Certified Pre-Owned vehicles definitely have the wow factor. It’s because every Certified Pre-Owned Lincoln has undergone a 200-point inspection by experienced technicians before receiving its certification, plus it produced a clean CARFAX Vehicle History Report. Enjoy a comprehensive, transferable limited warranty and complimentary 24-hour roadside assistance (along with confident peace of mind) when you purchase from our inventory of quality models.

Koenigsegg Certified Pre-Owned

With only a few hundred or so Koenigsegg supercars and hypercars produced in the world, you might have a difficult time finding a pre-owned one — especially one that belongs to the Koenigsegg Certified Pre-Owned program. These rare, exclusive models are certified by the brand itself — not dealerships — and most of the specific certification requirements are known only by company representatives. What we do know is that Certified Pre-Owned Koenigsegg models undergo an arduous inspection before receiving updates and refurbishment according to criteria set by Koenigsegg Automotive AB.

McLaren Certified Pre-Owned Programme

Any model that’s part of the McLaren Certified Pre-Owned Programme only belongs after receiving certification from an Authorized McLaren Retailer. Owners can only redeem benefits from an authorized dealership as well. Benefits include the use of McLaren genuine parts, McLaren-trained technicians, a minimum of 12-Month McLaren Certified Warranty (with the option to extend to 24 months), a minimum of 12 months of Roadside Assistance (including onward travel if necessary) and a rigorous bodywork and mechanical vehicle inspection to standards designed by McLaren.

Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned

Luxury is never bound — even when pre-owned. A Certified Pre-Owned Mercedes-Benz model must pass a series of requirements and tests before receiving its new title. To be considered, pre-owned models must be less than six years old, have less than 75,000 miles, be serviced according to schedule, produce a clean CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™ and pass the 165-point inspection and road test. Protective warranties include the remainder of the 4-Year/50,000-Mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty, and once it expires, the Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty covers the model for an additional 12 months and unlimited miles. A CPO Extended Limited Warranty is available at purchase.

Provenance Certified Pre-Owned

Rolls-Royce is a household name, but only a few have experienced its pristine luxury. Expect the same level of British craftsmanship on new models as those that wear the Provenance title. In order to be awarded with the honor, a pre-owned Rolls-Royce must be tried and tested against legendary standards. A 360-degree inspection is performed, and all details are exhaustively written for a full history before labelled as certified. Aftercare services include up to two years of servicing, warranty and roadside assistance, and all repairs and refurbishments are carried out using only Rolls-Royce genuine parts.

The details on this page are anything but exhaustive. If you’d like to learn more about a specific CPO program at one of our many locations, contact us either online, over the phone or by stopping by our dealership in person. The Krause Auto Group serves those from Woodstock, Duluth and Kennesaw.
