Aston Martin has launched a global approved used car programme, branding the new offering Timeless.

Established to offer customers of pre-owned Aston Martin sports cars assurance and confidence, the new programme is being launched internationally across the brand’s 164-strong dealer network.

The programme covers all Aston Martin models from the last ten years, including the DB9, DBS and V12 Vantage.

The limited-edition V12 Zagato and One-77 models will also be covered by the scheme.

Timeless also includes: a comprehensive one-year warranty, with full roadside assistance; an exhaustive technical inspection including full hardware and software updates; an Aston Martin provenance certificate; verification of the car’s service history; a VIP handover pack; and valuable discounts on Aston Martin accessories for three months from the date of purchase.

Aston Martin vice-president and chief sales officer, Christian Marti, said: “I am very happy to see the launch of this new and improved pre-owned service.

“Additions such as the new inspection regime – which for the first time includes a comprehensive assessment and review of our cars’ software, as well as their technical condition – can only add confidence for our buyers.”

He added: “Aston Martin rightly prides itself on its personal customer service, attention to detail and luxury, and with the debut of the Timeless pre-owned programme around the world, I know we are better placed than ever to continue to improve these elements of our business.”
