What does a pre purchase car inspection include?
Cars are usually sold with a roadworthy certificate, but this only means your car is safe to drive on public roads. A pre-purchase car inspection is the only way to make sure there are no surprises when you drive away. A qualified mechanic will do a visual inspection, mechanical check, and test drive to spot any current or potential problems. They will also be aware of concerns that might be typical for the make or model of the car you’re buying and look specifically for those issues. Your mechanic will usually follow a comprehensive pre-purchase car inspection checklist to help you make an informed decision about buying the car. Some of these checks will include:
Exterior inspection
The outside of a car is a good indication of how well the car has been looked after. Panel damage or evidence of repaired damage could indicate the car has been in a serious accident. A pre-purchase car inspection will show whether repairs have been performed to a satisfactory standard. An exterior check also includes checks for rust and structural integrity as these issues may cause problems down the track.
Interior inspection
Your mechanic will conduct a visual inspection of the car’s interior, starting with seats and door trims. Then they’ll check all features inside the car operate normally, including lights, seats, seat belts, air conditioning, central locking, wipers, and windows. Next, they’ll check the dashboard instruments and gauges.
Mechanical inspection
Hidden mechanical problems are one of the pitfalls of buying a used car. And there’s no way of finding out the full extent of any car problems without pulling the engine apart. But an experienced mechanic can identify issues from just a visual check of the underbody and engine. Serious mechanical problems may also show themselves in other areas of the car. Brakes, suspension, wheels, tyres, gearbox, and steering will be checked, and a test drive will help to identify any additional concerns. Your mechanic will pay attention to electrical and cooling systems, as well as the alternator and battery. They will run a diagnostic scan to identify any other issues.
History check
You can make sure your new purchase isn’t hiding any secrets, and that it’s not at risk of repossession by including a history check as part of your pre-purchase car inspection. A history check (or REVS check) show any finance owing on the vehicle, if the car has been stolen, or whether it’s been in a major accident and written off. These records are kept and attached to your car’s vehicle identification number (VIN).

We are buying a camper van, we would like a mechanic to perform an inspection of it and check there are no issues/faults and there is nothing major that will need replacing soon e.g. timing belt. The vehicle is having an RWC done tomorrow morning. So the check would be to find any faults or wear and tear issues that wouldn’t come up in an RWC. (No need to do checks already done in the RWC, which is why the price is lower).

Purchasing a 1979 Holden 308 engine and wanting someone to do an inspection on the motor. Checking for leaks/unusual noises/condition etc. You would ned your own battery pack and leads to crank it over as it is out of the car. If you can run a compression test on it that would be great. If you can find out when it was last reconditioned (dates of receipts etc) or anything else hat would be helpful.

2012 Ford Transit VM 350 High Roof LWB White 6 Speed Manual Van Seeking a reliable and experienced individual to conduct a pre-purchase inspection on a van I want to purchase I've already attended the initial inspection & test drive earlier today, from general feel level I am happy with it. So before proceeding with purchase I am after an inspection factoring: - A more comprehensive check mechanical check to ensure good condition for purchase - I plan to fit out the van for travel across the country, so it would be great if the inspector could factor this into the check and provide advice on the van's suitability for long-distance travel. - Expert advice on negotiating the price. Van is located in Mornington, VIC and needs to be completed by the end of business day today (5pm). - Due date: Needs to be done on Wednesday, 10 January 2024
So grateful for Adam's on-site van pre-purchase inspection. Quick to respond and was flexible even at such short notice. Going above and beyond, he not only conducted a thorough inspection but also offered valuable advice, and even negotiated on my behalf for best price. His rates were more than fair for the exceptional service provided. Trustworthy, efficient, and knowledgeable - I am now proceeding with this van purchase. Thanks Adam!
