Daily Price Check
97% Of our vans are already advertised in line with Autotraders “GOOD PRICE OR GREAT PRICE” indicator, and we check our prices daily to ensure we are the most competitive in the market.
"Our prices are comparable and, in most cases, better than the van Supermarkets and main dealers."
Free Delivery
We have our own van transporter at Shinsean Automotive, if you purchase a van from us with our Click and Deliver Service the full transaction can be done via phone / email. We will then deliver the van directly to you completely free of charge up to a 50-mile radius of our dealership.
Warranty
All vans are supplied with a 6-month platinum warranty, which is the highest level of cover. Please see our Warranty page for more information or ask a member of the team for details.
"Many dealers offer a 3-month warranty or less! Some offer the option to upgrade to 12 months at an additional cost, often with a poor level of cover"
Service and MOT
Every van leaves us with a Service and a Full 12 Months MOT regardless of when the last one was completed, for example, if a vehicle has 10 months MOT remaining we will still carry out a new test. This is because a MOT test is open to interpretation and we would rather our own experienced MOT testers inspect the vehicle to give their opinion.
"Many dealers will top up the oil and call it a service! Most will not Service or MOT the van if either were completed within the last 6 months"
MOT Advisory Notes
At the end of the MOT our tester could have identified a number of issues that may need fixing soon but are not serious enough to cause the vehicle to fail its MOT. There is no legal obligation to take any action based on the MOT advisory notes, but it would be unwise to ignore them. At Shinsean Automotive ALL of our vans are sold with no outstanding advisory work required. You will be given full documentation with your new van which will highlight all of the vans preparation with identifying what has been repaired or replaced.
“Many dealers (including some main dealers) sell vans with lists of MOT advisories”
Bosch Road Test
As part of the preparation of our vans, our Bosch trained technician's take each and every van on a 6-mile test drive. They use the same route which takes the vans over roundabouts, speed humps and up to 70 mph on the A19 to ensure the van drives correctly with no knocks or rattles. This test drive is enough time to identify any faults before the service and mot is carried out.
“Many dealers don't road test their vehicles, because as a road test doesn't form part of a mot”
Bosch Car Service Centre
We have our own on-site Bosch service centre and a team of experienced technicians that have all benefitted from in-depth training and development from Bosch. We have dealer level diagnostics from Delphi, Snap-On and Bosch. We are also linked electronically to BMW, VW Group and Mercedes Benz and are able to update their service system on your behalf.
"Many independent dealers do not have their own workshop and use independent garages for preparation. This leaves you with no choice but to find your own garage if your car develops a problem. When you do find a garage, they have no obligation to deal with your warranty company, or even support you as they did not supply the car"
Quality Parts
We use only the best quality parts on your van during preparation. Bosch are a major supplier to van manufacturers, and as an authorised BOSCH service centre we have extensive access to quality parts. We are approved by and use Petronas Oils (Mercedes Original Oil), and when we need to re-new brake parts, we use Padgid or Brembo, supplied to Porsche, Mercedes and used on many high-performance vans. We fit the same quality of parts regardless of the van and its price. From a Fiesta, to a Range Rover, all parts are equal quality. We use only the best quality parts for our vans, you can be assured of their longevity. In extreme cases when there is an issue, all parts we fit are guaranteed for a minimum of 12 months.
"Many dealers will fit the cheapest components available with little or no regard to their longevity after the car is purchased and after the warranty runs out, leaving you with potential bills for replacements"
Shinsean Automotive Assured Check
In addition to the standard BOSCH Service Health Check, we complete a Shinsean Automotive Assured Check on all our vehicles for that extra peace of mind. Our Assured Check aims to delve deeper into the condition of the vehicle and its fine workings including but not limited to the turbo and related pipework, the DPF system, the transmission and gearbox system, fuelling system and injectors. Each major component is meticulously checked to an exacting standard ensuring all our vehicles suitable and ready to drive away for many happy miles of motoring.
"Many dealers carry out a small service and MOT and are not really interested in any underlying faults a car could have, just as long as it passes an MOT"
Platinum Valet
Our own CarSpa valet centre methodically and meticulously prepare each car to the cleanest condition possible using the finest cleaning chemicals. We use AutoGlym products extensively during preparation to present your new car in the best possible condition and ensure the longevity of its finish in the future.
"Because of our in house CarSpa and our excellent relationship with AutoGlym, we do not outsource any of our valet or bodywork to others"
Preparation Documents and Report
Finally, once the preparation is complete, you will receive a fully documented BOSCH health check for your car including details of everything that has been checked and the condition it is in. We also provide you with extensive paperwork listing everything that has been changed, replaced or renewed during preparation.
"How many other dealers give as extensive pre-sale preparation as us, and document it. If you are looking at a car elsewhere, be sure to ask what their preparation entails?"
