Porsche aims to boost used car business
The company's new car sales have been decimated in the downturn, down to 5,280 in 2009, half of what they were in 2005 when 10,542 vehicles were sold.
Approved used Porsche cars undergo a 111-point check at a Porsche Centre prior to going on sale.
The warranty covers, without restriction, 100 per cent of the labour and material costs of all components in the engine, fuel system/cooling system, transmission/drive assembly, steering/suspension, brake system, air conditioning/heating, electrics and body.
The checks include verification of service and ownership history and the warranty is fully transferable if sold privately or back to a Porsche Centre.
There are currently just under 600 approved Porsches detailed on the company website in the approved scheme.
