Are Mannai 'certified pre-owned' really to be trusted?

Saw a car there today and they were uninterested, lacking in knowledge about the car and left me feeling that I can't trust them.

Should 'certified pre-owned' give me any kind of confidence that they've actually checked the car and that it's in good condition.....or are they just another second hand car showroom?

hey body,

I have read your comment on Mannai Pre-Owned and i would like to know to which showroom have you been to, i can answer your question and try to give you as much help as possible, and maybe change your mind in what you have mentioned earlier in your last comment.

you can answer in the same place and please also send it to me in privat so i can find it faster.

sorry for the delay in answering but we can not cover all place fast enough.

just for the record the Mannai Pre-Owned (GM Certified) showroom in the Industrial Area is not fully opereated, you probably had asked to IT guy who is operating only the IT stuff from the Industrial area.

certified wont have any warranty from Mannai..but yeah, it should be more trusted than from any other normal second hand car showroom...anyhow, you can still undergo a computer test..most of these test shops are located on Salwa Road..!!

the staff there has lack of knowledge due to lack of training..!! in this situation, it is always better to approach the manager for guidance..!

There is a German car company somewhere in the Industrial Area (yea, I know that is vague :-/), and I've heard is for ~ QR 150 they do a complete checkup of the car. It is worth spending that amount if you really intend on buying the car.

I'm sure there are people on the forum that know the exact location of the German car company that does these tests.

Do these "certifed" cars have any warranty on them from Mannai ?

Ha, im also looking to purchase another car at the minute, as i cant afford a new one, as it is to be our 2nd car, i have also been looking around the show rooms, and the interest they give you is now existant, i think regardless of where you buy a 2nd hand car from, you are taken a RISK!!
