What is a Mobile Pre Purchase Car Inspection*

A pre purchase vehicle inspection is a comprehensive check of the car’s condition before you buy. Our experienced mechanics inspect all major components:

• Engine
• Diff and Gearbox
• Hoses and Belts
• Air Condition Temperature
• Under Bonnet Oil Level and Condition
• Suspension & Steering
• Visible Brake Components
• Tyre depth and wear
• Interior Controls & Condition
• Paint Thickness Test
• Window tint test
• Full Computer Scan where applicable
• Lights & Lenses
• Full Written Report
• Verbal follow-up
• Photo's if you can't be there in person
• Road Test

After the inspection, we give you an easy-to-understand written report, 20-30 photos of tests and faults found and we follow up with a phone call to verbally explain everything. You will then have a clear understanding of the cars condition and can make a smart decision — buy, negotiate, or walk away
