When shopping for a used car, most buyers focus on the vehicle's price, kilometres, features and overall condition. However, there's another important factor worth considering: the dealership you purchase from and the services it provides.
Buying from a dealership with its own mechanical workshop can offer practical advantages, from vehicle inspections and servicing to ongoing maintenance after your purchase.
At Premier Autosales in Mitchell, Canberra, our used car dealership operates alongside Premier Automotive, our established mechanical workshop. With over 25 years of automotive industry experience, we combine vehicle sales with professional mechanical services to help customers throughout their vehicle ownership journey.
One of the benefits of purchasing from a dealership with an in-house workshop is access to technicians who understand the mechanical requirements of different makes and models.
Used vehicles can vary considerably in age, kilometres, condition and maintenance history. Having experienced mechanics involved in the dealership's operations can help identify potential issues and assess a vehicle's mechanical condition.
At Premier Autosales, our vehicles are inspected and serviced in our own workshop before being offered for sale, helping us prepare them for their next owners.
Understanding a used car's condition is an essential part of making an informed purchasing decision.
A mechanical inspection can help identify existing issues and assess important vehicle components, including the engine, transmission, brakes, suspension and tyres.
At Premier Automotive, our workshop provides professional vehicle inspections, including pre-purchase inspections and authorised registration inspections.
While no inspection can guarantee that a vehicle will be free from future mechanical problems, having access to experienced technicians can provide valuable information about its current condition.
Purchasing a vehicle is only the beginning of the ownership journey. Regular servicing and maintenance are essential for keeping your car in suitable working condition.
Choosing a dealership with an established mechanical workshop can make ongoing maintenance more convenient, particularly if you prefer to return to a familiar service provider.
At Premier Automotive, our qualified technicians provide a comprehensive range of mechanical services, including:
Our workshop services a wide range of makes and models, helping Canberra drivers maintain their vehicles long after the initial purchase.
When buying a used car, its maintenance history can provide valuable insight into how it has been cared for by previous owners.
Service records can help buyers understand whether important maintenance has been completed and identify any significant repairs carried out during the vehicle's lifetime.
At Premier Autosales, many of the vehicles we offer have previously belonged to our own workshop customers and have been regularly serviced by our team.
This can provide useful information about a vehicle's maintenance history, helping customers make more informed purchasing decisions.
Regardless of where you purchase a vehicle, it's always worth reviewing the available service records and arranging an independent inspection if you have concerns about its condition.
Having access to a mechanical workshop after purchasing a used car can be particularly convenient when it's time for routine servicing or repairs.
Rather than searching for a new service provider, you can return to a workshop that's already familiar with your vehicle.
At Premier Automotive, we provide ongoing servicing, maintenance and mechanical repairs for customers across Canberra and the surrounding areas.
Whether your vehicle needs a routine service, replacement tyres or more extensive mechanical work, our team is available to assist.
Alongside our mechanical services, Premier Autosales offers a diverse selection of quality pre-owned vehicles to suit different budgets and lifestyles.

We specialise in affordable used vehicles, including a selection of cars priced under $20,000, subject to availability.
Choosing the right used car involves more than finding a vehicle that fits your budget. Understanding its condition, maintenance requirements and the support available after your purchase can help you make a more informed decision.
