• To replenish our used vehicle inventory, we source quality pre-owned vehicles from live auction, online auction, and on trade-in from our customers. This process allows us to fully assess the vehicle we are buying and gather from you, the current owner, valuable vehicle history information.

• We welcome your trade, and encourage you to take advantage of the tax savings. We'll perform a full market analysis, and provide you with a very competitive trade-in value.

• When you choose to trade in your vehicle to us, we will arrange to have to vehicle shipped if you're flying to us instead of driving.

All you need to worry about is the tax of the province in which you live. If your permanent location is outside B.C., we will not charge PST if:

• you sign the FIN 440 form (we will provide you with this form)
• you can provide the necessary identification to prove that you live outside BC. We require two pieces of ID such as your driver’s license or your out of province medical plan card. (We do not accept birth certificates or vehicle registration)
• However, if you reside in a province that has PST, we will only have to charge you 5% GST if you provide the necessary identification (see above)
• If you reside in Ontario where HST is applied, we can either: 1) Charge you 5% GST (and you will be responsible to deal with the additional tax amount when you register your vehicle in your province) or 2) Charge you the applicable HST in your province of residence.

If you would like to ship your vehicle, then we have that covered for you too. We have relationships with many trusted trucking companies which will take great care of your vehicle while shipping.

We will supply you with a pre-delivery checklist before it is shipped, and again we will forward you photos of the vehicle before it leaves our premises.

Shipping will be estimated at time of delivery.

How can I be assured that the vehicle I am purchasing is in good condition without seeing it?

Bannister Ford is locally owned and operated by Wayne McIntyre & the Bannister Automotive Group, one of ten dealerships across BC and Alberta. We will provide you with all of the information that you will need to make an informed purchase decision including CarProof or ICBC accident report, mechanical report, and a full personalized video of the vehicle you are looking to purchase.

Should my vehicle be inspected when I receive it?

Your vehicle will need to go through an out-of-province inspection if it is a pre-owned vehicle, this is simply to ensure that your vehicle meets the safety standards of your province. And there is no need to worry because at our dealership your vehicle has already gone through a rigorous inspection. So if you are wondering if your vehicle will meet the requirements in your province, the answer is simply YES.

What if something happens to the vehicle during the shipping process?

There is no need to worry in the event that your vehicle is damaged during shipping. And this is why: the firms responsible for shipping our vehicles are completely insured. So if anything happens to your vehicle, it will be repaired. Therefore, your vehicle is also covered!

What does getting a used vehicle from another brand imply?

All the used vehicles at our dealership go through the same rigorous inspection. So getting a used vehicle that is not Ford implies that you get an equally reliable and durable vehicle as all of our pre-owned Ford vehicles.
