At Knauz Continental Autos in Lake Bluff, IL, we have a special program of Mercedes-Benz loaner cars we refer to a Retired Courtesy Vehicles. All of our Mercedes-Benz loaner cars have been well-maintained and they’re top-quality vehicles that you can buy with a high level of confidence. Whether you get a retired Mercedes-Benz sedan, SUV, coupe or convertible, a Mercedes-Benz loaner vehicle can save buyers from Gurnee and Lake Forest, IL a lot of money and give you a luxury car you can depend on.
What exactly is a Mercedes-Benz loaner car?
At our dealership, our Mercedes-Benz models are used for test drives or when one of our customers needs transportation while his or her vehicle is being serviced. These are typically brand-new Mercedes-Benz models when they first arrive and after they have had a moderate number of miles, we give each one a rigorous inspection and offer it as a gently-used vehicle to customers like you. Our Mercedes-Benz loaner cars usually have very low mileage since they're being driven by customers or dealer personnel for only a short period of time.
Why is Mercedes-Benz a particularly good loaner car to buy?
Because our core business is offering brand-new Mercedes-Benz vehicles, our courtesy models are driven by our premium clientele and each one gets meticulous maintenance from our staff of certified Mercedes-Benz technicians. As you can imagine, a Mercedes-Benz customer is going to treat a Mercedes-Benz courtesy vehicle with great care so these loaner cars are in superb condition. Remarkably enough, these nearly-new Mercedes-Benz models are priced as pre-owned vehicles but they’re still eligible for special new car incentives offered by Mercedes-Benz USA.
Get the advantages of both the new and pre-owned worlds
Our retired Mercedes-Benz loaner cars offer showroom quality and unique advantages not available with other pre-owned models. These vehicles are eligible for Mercedes-Benz pre-owned certification and they offer special financing rates. Our Mercedes-Benz loaner cars can be leased with new car leasing programs, just like a new Mercedes-Benz, so lessees from Kenosha, WI and Libertyville, IL can get the lower monthly payments of a lease.
These low-mileage vehicles are typically covered by Mercedes-Benz New Vehicle Warranty
Because our Mercedes-Benz loaner cars have usually been driven for only a few thousand miles, they are still covered by the Mercedes-Benz New Vehicle Limited Warranty. The basic comprehensive warranty starts on the iinitial sale date of that Mercedes-Benz model and lasts for four years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first. This is a wide-ranging warranty that covers bumper-to-bumper components and the powertrain along with rust perforation, emission components and even safety belts. So you're getting even more value with a Mercedez-Benz loaner car.
A Mercedes-Benz loaner car might qualify as part of our Certified Pre-Owned program
As former courtesy vehicles, our Mercedes-Benz loaner cars usually qualify for the Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned program. To be certified as a pre-owned Mercedes-Benz model, a vehicle must pass an uncompromising 165-point inspection. When the original Mercedes-Benz four-Year/50,000-Mile new vehicle Limited Warranty expires, the Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty will go into effect. That will give you an extra 12 months of coverage with unlimited miles.
