Shopping for a Used Nissan Vehicle

Thinking about purchasing a used Nissan Altima? Or maybe a Nissan Murano? Bedford Nissan in Bedford, OH, is your first stop, with dozens of pre-owned models available. We’ve also got answers to a few questions you might have about shopping for used cars.

What Is a CPO Nissan Auto?

CPO stands for Certified Pre-Owned, and it’s a classification of used car. Used Nissan vehicles have to meet several requirements to earn CPO status, including:

• less than six years old
• less than 80,000 miles
• have a clean, non-branded title
• pass a comprehensive 167-point inspection.

CPO Nissan cars cost a bit more, but also come with a seven year/100,000 mile powertrain limited warranty, and 24-hour emergency service.

What Are the Benefits of Buying a Used Car?

Whether you opt for a CPO Nissan auto, or a used Nissan vehicle, the price is less than a new car. You’ll also save on insurance, as used vehicle policies typically cost less.

You may also be able to get more options and features by purchasing a used vehicle—since the sticker price is less, you’ll get more for your money.

And, if you’re looking for a particular model, or specific features, you may have a better chance of finding precisely what you want. After all, you have years of previous versions from which to choose.

What Should I Look for When Buying a Used Car?

Buying a used car here at our Nissan dealership is a lot like buying a new vehicle. You can review which models we have on our lot, pick the ones you’re interested in, and take a test drive.

When choosing which used Nissan vehicle is right for you, consider the following:

• How many miles do you drive? If it’s a lot, you may want a used car with less on the odometer.
• In what conditions will you be driving? If you like outdoor adventures, you can look for a vehicle with off-road capabilities, like the Nissan Armada. You might even be able to find one with travel accessories already installed.
• How important is the look? If you don’t mind a scratch or two, you may be able to find a used car for less money.

You can also get help with financing a used Nissan auto from our finance department, who will help you through the process.
