Lens Car Sales in Port Alfred joins dealerships offering AA Certified Pre-Owned Inspections
The Automobile Association (AA) launched an innovative service with independent vehicle dealerships and AA Approved workshops across the country to provide consumers with credible information on pre-owned vehicles they intend purchasing. Through the service, dealerships can offer an AA 125-point inspection of vehicles and thereby provide a comprehensive report on the vehicle to prospective buyers.
Consumers across South Africa will be able to access this service at all dealerships that display the AA Certified Pre-Owned branding
Lens Car Sales in Port Alfred has joined the fast-growing list of dealerships that are partnering with the AA around the country that will be offering this service to its customers. As a brand, Lens Car Sales has been operating for the past 40 years in Grahamstown and this family business is now expanding its operations to include a used floor in Port Alfred with the strength of the AA brand by its side.
“In developing this product and service, the AA along with our brand partner AA Warranties, recognized that we can offer support to independent dealerships while providing the motoring public a valuable and credible service that enhances the selling and purchasing experience,” says Willem Groenewald, AA CEO.
Critically, the inspection process does not offer a “pass” or “fail” assessment of a vehicle. Instead, it provides a report which states the “facts” of the vehicle at the time of assessment.
“I’m super excited to be joining forces with the AA and I feel that this brand will resonate a lot with the folk of Port Alfred and bring us much success,” said dealership owner Steven van der Merwe.
The AA is engaging with independent dealerships across the country regarding the AA Certified Pre-Owned accreditation. The intention is to have a minimum of 150 dealerships in South Africa offering the service in the next two years.
