Recent Pre Purchase Car Inspection reviews in South Moreton Bay

Absolute legend- If you’re looking for a hardworking, dependable and trustworthy person, you’ve come to the right place. Aaron checked out a car for me before purchase today. He went out of his way to do a thorough inspection, doing everything that I asked and more. He sent through all of the details I could possibly need about the car (inside and out,) including photos. He was fast to respond, easy to organise with, on time to the inspection, well mannered & very helpful and honest in addressing any questions I had. When I wasn’t sure I wanted the car after the inspection, even after payment was complete, he continued to help me by trying to find me a car that was more suitable. I couldn’t have asked for better service from a great guy. Cheers Aaron.

Tate was fantastic. Went out to take a look at the vehicle and gave me a detailed summary of what would be needed to get it to roadworthy, and also anything else that might be worth doing. It provided me the confidence to proceed with the purchase. He also came through with quotes on some of the repair items. Thanks mate!

Suggested reads about Pre Purchase Car Inspection

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).
