I need a car inspector for a light car.

Dimitri was very helpful with a pre-purchase inspection. I wouldn’t have known of a few issues when he scanned the car. Apart from that he found out the trunk window was replaced when the owner didn’t mentioned it. I highly recommend him.

Looking for a skilled mechanic to do a pre-purchase inspection of a campervan (2014 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 416 LWB) in the Bellingen area. I'm located in Sydney so won't be present but will provide the address of the current owner.

Needed to do a pre-purchase inspection of a campervan I wanted to buy in Coffs Harbour while I was located in Sydney. Billy provided me with a detailed review of the van, identified a few issues and things needing servicing, and advised on whether the van was worth the asking price. Will definitely use his service again if needed!

Pre-purchase Inspection of 2004 Jaguar X Type

$150

Kellyville NSW 2155, Australia

17th Mar 2025

Looking for a qualified mechanic or experienced PPI (Pre-Purchase Inspection) professional to check out a 2004 Jaguar X-Type in Kellyville, NSW before purchase. I'm interstate in QLD. It's about a $3,000 car with spotty service history, so I’m not expecting perfection—just want to ensure it’s mechanically sound, roadworthy, and free from any major failures or hidden issues. What I Need Checked: Engine & Transmission: No leaks, misfires, or worrying noises. Suspension & Steering: Any excessive play, knocking, or wear. Brakes & Tyres: Sufficient life left, no major issues. Electronics & Features: Basic functionality (windows, AC, warning lights, etc.). Body & Chassis: No major rust, accident damage, or structural concerns. Overall Assessment: Is it a reasonable buy for the price? Timing: Flexible but would like it done ASAP. Deliverable: A verbal or written summary (doesn’t have to be formal) of the car’s condition and any red flags. Let me know your experience and availability. Cheers!

Al did an interstate pre purchase on a used car for me. Did it in a day. Great communication, prompt and thorough. Highly recommend!

Sydney NSW, Australia

Hi I’m looking to buy a used car latest by the 2nd week of March. I want someone who can come and inspect the car I finalise to ensure I’m making the right purchase. I’m currently considering Mazda (3, 6, cx3 and cx5), Hyundai Elantra, and Toyota cars. Not entirely sure what the final location would be but definitely an easy to get to suburb in Sydney.

Brad was extremely thorough with the car inspection. He went above and beyond to check each and every part of the car and gave fantastic advice to ensure I’m making the purchase knowing everything I need to know and what to expect in the next few months / years with the car.
