Gas Prices Make Volvo even more Attractive

There’s no getting around the fact that gas prices are high.  To find the cheapest gas in your area, use this handy ‘gas prices’ finder tool from Mapquest.  There is also a “AAA Daily Fuel Guage Report” which is updated daily, surveying around 120,000 self-serve stations in the United States.  According to information obtained from AAA, the Midwest has seen the steepest increase in gas prices in the country, remaining at somewhere around 30 to 40 cents per gallon of regular unleaded.

Unless you use public transit or your bicycle to get from one place to another, vehicle gas prices are going to be important to you.  When shopping around for a new vehicle with competitive fuel economy, Volvo has several attractive options such as the Volvo S60 FWD, the Volvo C30 FWD, and the Volvo XC60 FWD.  Jenkins Imports in Milwaukee has a large selection of these vehicles, and many more.

Not only does Volvo provide competitive fuel economy in their vehicles, but they are some of the safest vehicles in the country.  Volvo also offers a ‘BEST IN CLASS’ complimentary Factory Scheduled Maintenance coverage for the first 5 years or 50,000 miles, whichever occurs first.  This offer is found in their Volvo Safe + Secure Coverage Plan available on all new 2012 model year Volvo vehicles sold in the U.S.

Don’t miss out on the SUMMER SALES EVENT going on right now at Jenkins Imports.  Where else can you find a large variety of the safest cars, best in class warranty coverage and a sales event which pays for your first 4 months of payments?  Make the short trip to I-43 at Capitol Drive.  Start your Journey at Jenkins, you won’t regret it!

Jenkins Helping Senior Citizens

Congratulations to Team Jenkins for taking home the first place trophy last month at the VMP Foundation Invitational.  VMP, (previously known as Village Manor Park), hosts the golf invitational at the Wisconsin Club-Country Club in Milwaukee each year.  Funds are raised in support and recognition of the importance of seniors maintaining active lifestyles.  This year, proceeds went towards the “Senior Solutions Fund”  which directly benefit programs which impact the quality of care available for seniors.

The owner of Jenkins Imports and several employees have participated in this event for many years.  (June 2012 marked their 19th year!)  The 2012 team consisted of Greg Jenkins, Scott Timmerman, Michael Jenkins and Gregory Jenkins.   Gregory Jenkins stated, ” The best thing for us is the friendly competition; seeing the money being put to great use and seeing the improvements that are made each year.”  Many other companies and sponsors from the Milwaukee area also participated.  It’s always good to know that the businesses we support give back to the community!

The shiny red 2012 Jaguar XF looked exceptionally gorgeous parked in the lush green grass of the Country Club.  To find out more about the family owned & operated dealership visit www.jenkinsvolvo.com or www.jenkinsjaguar.com.  Or, if you want to experience the friendliest service in town, I highly recommend stopping in to say hello!

Certified Pre-Owned at Jenkins Imports

You may have noticed that ”Certified Pre-Owned” or “CPO” has replaced the term ”used.”   CPO originated due to the high rate of luxury off-lease vehicles populating the market in the recent past. Because these vehicles are in great shape and have lower mileage, they’re refurbished.  Often times there are special financing plans and roadside assistance offered as well.  Who buys pre-owned?  Someone who wants a less-costly alternative to a new car.  Who buys certified pre-owned?  Someone who wants a low mileage, less-costly alternative knowing the vehicle has been thoroughly inspected and includes an extended warranty.  Most CPO vehicles are less than five or six years old and in great shape, however they are not perfect.  The added inspection and warranty provide a sense of security that you wouldn’t receive buying a “used” vehicle.

Not all CPO vehicles are created equal.  Jaguar CPO vehicles must be less than five years old and have fewer than 60,000 miles.  Compare to Mercedes-Benz CPO program of less than six years and fewer than 75,000 miles.  Jaguar CPO vehicles warranty is 72months/100,000 miles while Mercedes-Benz is 12months/ 1oo,000 miles.  (Which ever comes first.)  BMW’s CPO program only covers 12months/ 50,000 miles and requires a warranty deductible of $50.

What to look and “look out for” in a CPO program:

• Inspect the Points of Inspection
• Get the Warranty the Vehicle Warrants
• Look for Special incentives and finance deals

Just announced 0.9% APR Financing now available on Jaguar Select Certified 2007 & Newer Pre-Owned vehicles at Jenkins Jaguar!  To see the full line of Jaguar Select Certified Pre-Owned vehicles visit Jenkins Imports at 4020 N.
