Anthony has exceptional customer service. He was punctual despite receiving very short notice. He offered an extremely thorough inspection of the vehicle that I was considering purchasing and was very honest with what he thought of the car. He checked the car engine, cosmetics, performance and true value vs asking price. I cannot recommend Anthony enough!

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).

Pre purchase inspection of Lexus UX
$250
Holsworthy NSW, Australia
2nd May 2024
We need a qualified mechanic to do a pre purchase diagnostics test and driven inspection of a 2019 Lexus UX. We are after an ecu scan, review of engine, transmission, suspension, and ignition, and rust and repair inspection, as well as a test drive and assessment of the overall condition of the car and if it has had any bodywork and/or major mechanical repairs done. The car has service records (done by a dealer) but it hasn't been serviced for a bit more than a year. It is about to go out of warranty so we would like a list of issues needing to be addressed under warranty as part of a report. The sellers are home with access to the vehicle Friday 3/5/2024.
Five stars all the way. Quick and knowledgeable. Thanks
