Driving smarter starts at Cardoen

Child playing with toy cars on a table, symbolising how Cardoen transforms a used car into a refurbished car.

Innovating in cars since 1949.

Cardoen looks different today. And that’s no coincidence. Our new visual identity marks the next chapter in a story that started over 75 years ago: a story of challenging how people buy cars.


What began as a pioneer of the lowest price guarantee has evolved into a specialist in refurbished cars. Because we believe car ownership should be simpler. Smarter. Free from unnecessary costs and uncertainty. Backed by quality, warranty, and real peace of mind.

With refurbished cars, we rethink the traditional car model. No overproduction. No inflated new-car prices.

Instead: vehicles that are thoroughly inspected, professionally restored, and brought up to our strict in-house quality standards. Every car is prepared according to its age and mileage, so you know exactly what you’re getting.

Our new look reflects what we’ve stood for all along: trust, transparency, and smart mobility.

Cardoen evolves, so you can drive smarter.

What refurbished means at Cardoen

A refurbished car is more than just a used car.

At Cardoen, you choose a vehicle that has been carefully inspected and professionally refreshed, both mechanically and cosmetically, according to our own quality standards. Each car is restored to the best possible condition based on its age and mileage. No guesswork. No surprises. Just clarity.

What that means for you:
A car that’s ready for worry-free driving
A clear price that’s significantly lower than a comparable new car
Warranty included for added peace of mind

The benefits of choosing a refurbished car
- Reliability: every vehicle is checked on more than 100 technical inspection points.
- Financially smart: more affordable than buying new, without compromising on security or warranty.
- A sustainable choice: you give an existing car a second life, reducing waste and unnecessary production.
- Peace of mind: standard 1-year warranty, plus full Cardoen service support.

How we refurbish your car

Our refurbishment process follows five carefully designed steps:

1. Intake and initial assessment
Every car receives a detailed arrival check. We inspect, document, and plan what needs to be done.

2. Comprehensive technical inspection
Over 100 control points: engine, brakes, electronics, software, and more. Nothing is overlooked.

3. Repairs and replacements
Worn or defective parts are repaired or replaced according to our strict quality standards.

4. Professional cleaning and detailing
Interior and exterior are fully refreshed, from paint correction to deep interior cleaning.

5. Final quality check and delivery
Once everything passes our final inspection, your car is ready. You drive away with confidence.

Frequently asked questions about refurbished cars

A used car is typically sold as-is. A refurbished car at Cardoen is first thoroughly inspected, repaired and professionally refreshed in our own reconditioning centre. Mechanically and cosmetically. Only after passing this process is it offered for sale, complete with warranty.
With more than 75 years of experience in mobility, Cardoen knows exactly what a reliable car should meet. For us, refurbished means certainty, transparency and trust from day one.

Yes. Every refurbished car at Cardoen undergoes more than 100 technical checks. Worn parts are replaced where necessary and each vehicle is carefully tested before delivery. You receive a standard 1-year warranty on every refurbished car. For additional peace of mind, you can choose Service+ or extend your warranty coverage up to 10 years, depending on the vehicle.

In many cases, yes. Both the interior and exterior are thoroughly cleaned and refreshed, and minor signs of wear are addressed wherever possible. Our goal is a car that looks fresh and feels right. Any remaining signs of use are clearly communicated on our website. No surprises, just full transparency.

Absolutely. Choosing a refurbished car means driving a reliable vehicle with warranty, without the environmental impact of producing a brand-new car. The majority of a car’s CO₂ emissions occur during manufacturing. By giving an existing car a second life, you reduce resource use, lower emissions and minimise waste. It’s a smarter way to drive and a more sustainable way to buy a car.

You can return the car within the agreed period: up to 14 days or 1,000 km after purchase.
At Cardoen, we believe trust only matters if you also have the freedom to change your mind.

No. Only vehicles that meet our strict quality criteria are selected and refurbished. That’s how we guarantee the level of reliability and quality we promise. For Cardoen, refurbished isn’t a trend. It’s a deliberate choice for smarter, more sustainable car ownership.
