Here are some of the key things to consider when choosing an Approved Used BMW.

Check What's Included with the Approved Used Programme

One of the biggest advantages of buying an Approved Used BMW is the range of manufacturer-backed benefits included with your purchase.

Every Approved Used BMW includes:

• A minimum 12-month unlimited mileage BMW Warranty.
• A minimum 12-month BMW Roadside Assistance.
• A minimum 12-month MOT Cover.
• A Verified Service History.
• An independent vehicle history and mileage check.

Understanding what's included can give you additional confidence and make it easier to compare Approved Used vehicles.

Look at the Vehicle's Service History

A vehicle's service history can provide valuable insight into how it has been maintained.

Every Approved Used BMW includes a Verified Service History, giving you confidence that the vehicle's maintenance record has been checked as part of the Approved Used programme.

Choose the Right BMW for Your Lifestyle

When choosing an Approved Used BMW, it's worth thinking about how you'll use the vehicle day to day. Taking the time to compare different models can help you find one that's well suited to your lifestyle and driving habits.

Think about:

• The journeys you make most often.
• How much passenger and luggage space you'll need.
• Whether a petrol, diesel, plug-in hybrid or fully electric BMW best suits your driving.
• The technology and features that are most important to you.

Taking the time to compare different models can help you make the right choice.

Take a Test Drive

Even if you've researched a model thoroughly, a test drive remains one of the best ways to understand how the vehicle feels on the road.

It gives you the opportunity to experience the vehicle's comfort, visibility, handling, technology and overall driving experience before making your decision.

Understand Your Finance Options

If you're planning to finance your next BMW, it's worth understanding the options available.

Your retailer can explain the finance products available through BMW Financial Services, helping you choose the solution that's most appropriate for your individual circumstances.

Think About Ownership Beyond Collection

Buying your BMW is just the beginning of your ownership journey.

It's worth considering the aftersales services available after you've collected your vehicle, including servicing, MOT testing, maintenance and ongoing support throughout your ownership.
