The Gasan Approved brand has been launched by Gasan Enterprises Ltd and represents the birth of a new concept within the second-hand car market.

Clients are now guaranteed the purchase of second-hand cars in a first-rate condition, the company said.

Gasan Approved cars carry with them a brand promise: The history and mileage is checked whilst factory-trained technicians carry out a rigorous 100-point checklist before certifying the suitability of each vehicle. Vehicles retailed through the programme are limited to a certain age and mileage, all carry a minimum 12-month warranty and breakdown service and are subject to a full valet.

David Gasan, Gasan Enterprises Ltd's managing director, said that a Gasan Approved vehicle would not enter the stock list unless it gets a 100 per cent pass mark from their technicians.

Gasan Approved is interested in purchasing suitable stock for the programme.

Gasan Approved would be offering an in-house finance scheme and clients will be able to request specific vehicles.
