Sirus Automotive explain the advantages of purchasing an Approved Used Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle (WAV) and how to ensure you get the best service and aftersales support.
Before purchasing a wheelchair-accessible vehicle (WAV), ask your supplier specific questions about the car’s condition. Doing so ensures your second-hand car has been through specific checks before it’s delivered, which means you will receive the correct aftersales support and service.
Sirus Automotive’s promise
We recommend Sirus Automotive as a reliable dealer if you want to buy a used WAV. Sirus is an approved RAC dealer, meaning all their Approved Used WAVs go through a rigorous RAC-approved 82-point checklist before being released for sale.
The company will carry out a vehicle history check to determine the number of previous owners and any past issues with the vehicle, including any prior accidents. All of their Approved Used WAVs include a 12-month MOT Certificate and can be available in just 1-2 weeks, depending on the adaptations required.
Incentives
If you’re still unsure, Sirus Automotive also has a range of incentives that can make purchasing a vehicle from them more appealing.
You will receive up to £500 towards your first year’s insurance from specialist WAV insurance provider, Fish Insurance (*available on selected WAVs), if you buy from Sirus.
In addition, you will get a 2-3-year RAC Warranty* and one year free RAC breakdown Cover (roadside, recovery, at home) that offers peace of mind when you’re out and about. However, if you get into an accident, Sirus offers RAC Accident Care for the duration of your breakdown cover.
