Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a pre‑purchase inspection take?
Most inspections take around 60–90 minutes, depending on the vehicle’s condition and size.
Do you provide a written report?
Yes - you’ll get a clear summary of the inspection results, including any issues we find and what they mean for you as the buyer.
Can you meet me at the dealership or seller’s location?
Absolutely. We travel to wherever the car is located; dealership, private sale, or auction yard.
Will the inspection tell me if I should buy the car or not?
We don’t make the decision for you, but we provide independent advice and highlight the car’s true condition so you can make a confident choice.
What if the seller refuses an inspection?
That’s often a red flag. We recommend being cautious, if a seller won’t allow an independent inspection, it may mean they have something to hide.
