Affordable second-hand cars in Berlin

Our used cars are as versatile as the city itself. From nippy compact cars for city driving to spacious estate cars and SUVs for the family, right through to modern hybrid and electric models – you’ll find the right car with us.

Good-quality, well-maintained vehicles don’t have to be expensive: thanks to attractive offers, lease return vehicles, one-day registrations, demonstration cars and targeted clearance sales, you’ll find young, service-history-maintained used cars at affordable prices. This means you can compare different used cars and specifically enquire about the one that suits your budget.

When buying a used car, trust is key. That’s why we inspect our used vehicles thoroughly before they go on sale. Depending on the vehicle, we check the engine, brakes, electronics, tyres, bodywork, wear-and-tear parts and safety-related components, amongst other things. We also provide transparent information on mileage, date of first registration, specifications, vehicle history, service history and any available warranty options.

As a car dealership in Berlin, we go through the key points with you: condition, specifications, mileage, previous use and – where available – the service history. This gives you a clear assessment of the used car, allowing you to decide at your leisure whether it’s the right fit for you.

A used car is a good choice if it suits your everyday life, the journeys you make and your budget. That’s why we’ll work with you to understand how you intend to use your vehicle. Do you mainly drive short distances in town, do you regularly commute to the surrounding area, or do you need more space for your family, leisure activities or work?

The running costs should also suit your everyday life. For hybrid or electric vehicles, we’ll discuss range, charging behaviour and electricity consumption with you. For petrol or diesel vehicles, the focus is more on fuel consumption, mileage and maintenance history. This way, we can work together to assess which car makes the most sense for your daily journeys.

If you’re looking for a vehicle that’s as new as possible, depending on our stock, year-old cars, demonstration vehicles or cars with one-day registration may also be worth considering. These have usually only been registered for a short time, have low mileage and often come with modern features. Depending on the vehicle, a warranty may also still be valid.

We’ll also discuss the right financing options with you in person. This involves the term, deposit, monthly instalments and what suits your budget. On request, we can also check whether you can trade in your current vehicle or whether we can buy it from you.
