Uftring Weston Pre-Owned Center


Just down the road from our Uftring Weston Chevy Cadillac store is the Uftring Weston Pre-Owned Center on the corner of War Memorial Drive and University Street. You can’t miss the blue roof! If you’re looking for a large selection of pre-owned cars, trucks and SUVs, our pre-owned center is just the spot.

Why buy a used car? There are many reasons why a pre-owned vehicle purchase can sometimes better fit our customers’ needs over purchasing brand new. Some of our very best values come from a variety of used cars on our lot. It’s a fact that used cars are now more reliable than ever before. Lower interest rates, typically lower insurance rates, affordability and reliability are just some of the many reasons our customers purchase pre-owned vehicles from Uftring Weston Chevy Cadillac.


We encourage anyone shopping for a pre-owned vehicle in the greater Peoria area to visit both Uftring Weston Chevrolet Cadillac and the Uftring Weston Pre-Owned Center for any of your car needs. We’ve got the best sales team, top-notch service and parts departments and we’re here to help you, even in these bitter cold temperatures.

Buying A Used Car

The last thing you want to happen with your used car purchase is to find out it has numerous problems and costly repairs. Suddenly that great deal has turned into a great steal. If you know what to look for and the right questions to ask, you can avoid one of these nightmare scenarios.

Enter Gary Uftring. Owning Uftring Auto Group with its six car dealerships spread across the Peoria area, Gary knows a bit about buying quality used cars and how to separate the wheat from the chaff. The video below is of Gary when he was a featured guest on Good Company and gave advice to their viewers on how to buy a used car. If you're in the market or thinking about purchasing a used car, this is a video to watch. It lays out the basic and essential tips that everyone should keep in mind when shopping.



  • Talk to the previous owner if possible
  • Take the car to an independent technician for inspection
  • Check the car thoroughly
  • Ask to see the reconditioning report from the dealer
  • Take the car for a test drive
  • Ask to put the vehicle on a lift so you see underneath
  • Run an auto check like Carfax
  • Have the dealer explain and show you what they've done (repairs, replaced equipment, etc.)
If you follow these tips your used car shopping experience should prove much more fruitful and you will have greatly increased your likelihood of landing a great used car. No one wants to get stuck with a clunker or a money pit. Uftring Auto Group has plenty of high quality, thoroughly inspected used cars in Peoria to choose from. It's always a great place for you to start your search!

The Uftring Auto Group Assembles in East Peoria

It's a special time of the year when the Uftring Auto Group dealerships in Peoria are all able to assemble in one place. We're sort of like the Justice League of car dealers. Our superpowers consist of finding and offering an array of fabulous cars at great prices, and when we get together good things happen.

Right now we're all together in one location, the East Peoria Event Center, where we have over 600 used cars on the lot for your picking. Yeah, over 600 cars! It's a bit overwhelming at first, but you can never have too much of a good thing. Pre-owned cars from 12 franchises are there, including Chrysler, General Motors, Ford, and many imports like Nissan and Land Rover. It's likely that we have many if not most of your favorite makes and models.  With over 600 choices, you are bound to find something you like. If you're looking to sell your car we can buy it! This relationship works both ways, and we love to have great pre-owned inventory.

It might be hot outside and the deals on the cars may be scorching, but you can keep cool inside the event center and shop at the same time in the convenience of air conditioning.  We have financing as low as 0.9% and 1.9% for 60 months. Going any lower than that is probably illegal, so we won't do it. We'll also have CEFCU personnel on site for your convenience. Make sure to check out our ad below for all of the details. Come out to the East Peoria Event Center and see all of the Uftring Auto Group cars for yourself. This is the best and biggest selection of used cars you'll find in the Peoria area, complete with great savings and super friendly staff. Hope to see you guys out there!

The East Peoria Event Center is located at 4200 East Washington Street in East Peoria, Illinois.
