Some would also want to visit the seller to inspect the vehicle, which is a significant health risk given that the COVID-19 virus is spreading at an alarming rate in the country. However, by reaching out to DIMO CERTIFIED, individuals interested in selling their Luxury European vehicles can avoid such hassles as DIMO’s professional service guarantees peace of mind. DIMO CERTIFIED’s professional valuation team with vast experience in handling world-renowned luxury automobile brands including Mercedes-Benz, Chrysler and Jeep will provide the most accurate and trustworthy buy back price for your vehicle.
A comprehensive vehicle check is carried out at DIMO 800 for Mercedes-Benz, Chrysler and Jeep brands which are imported and maintained by DIMO while other European brands are evaluated at DIMO AutoLab, the dedicated DIMO after sales service centre designed to cater to other European automobile brands.
