WHY SHOULD YOU OPT FOR A PRE-PURCHASE CAR INSPECTION

Are you about to purchase a used car?

A car purchase can be exciting and daunting if you don’t know where it has been or what it has experienced!

Expert vehicle inspectors have seen all makes and models of cars and know what to look out for to detect faults and hidden dangers.

Are you looking to purchase a used car? Great!

Why do you need a pre-purchase inspection before buying a home?

The car that you are interested in could be under ten years of age, have only driven 80,000km and show no signs of wear.

It looks as if you have a great deal.

You may not be able to detect problems with your vehicle that only a professional can.

How? 

An independent vehicle inspector can uncover issues that you may not be able to diagnose or detect yourself, such as fuel leaks or transmission problems.

You can now buy with a lot of purchasing power!

When buying a used vehicle, you need to be extra cautious, since it is impossible to know the history of the vehicle, especially if there were multiple owners.

If you are interested in buying a car, you can schedule a inspection before even seeing the vehicle.

We only need a time and date, as well as the permission of the seller, to inspect the vehicle.

We are happy to inspect with you even if you’re not present.

What should I look for before purchasing a vehicle?

When you first look at the vehicle, be sure to watch out for the following red flags.

• The steering system may be noisy when it is fully locked
• The car may have difficulty changing gears, going uphill, or using a hard or soft pedal.
• There are abnormal knocking or whirring noises
• Tracking is the condition of the vehicle’s performance.

Are you unsure of the signs to watch out for? Get complete peace of mind with a pre-purchase inspection.

When the car is stationary, you can assess its condition for:

• The base of the driver’s seat may have worn out.
• The air conditioning recycling
• Staying on the SRS airbag warning or engine light
• If the locks are working and the vehicle has a central lock system
• Cruise control operation
• Internal wear and tear
• Seatbelt condition
• Auxiliary/Bluetooth connection, reverse camera operation, sat nav operation

What happens in a pre purchase inspection?

An independent company that performs vehicle inspections in Brisbane, is one of these businesses.

We inspect the vehicle visually and conduct a test-drive to verify functions like:

• Checking that the engine and transmission number are identical
• The car may have been subject to an airbag recall
• Records of service and maintenance
• Scan ECU for Electrical Fault Codes
• Head gasket problems
• Burning motor oil
• Transmission problems
• Suspension problems
• Roadworthiness defects
• Hail/Rust
• Battery condition & charge system
• Heating and air conditioning quality
• The mileage must be genuine
• The PPSR status of the car
• Tracking & Test Drive Issues

Then we give you an oral summary of what we found, our honest opinion of the vehicle, the vehicle report in pdf format, and up 80 high-resolution photos covering every angle of the vehicle.

Our on-site 300-point car inspection and report go beyond the basics of roadworthy checks and give you complete peace-of-mind about the condition, and therefore the asking price, of the vehicle that you have fallen in love.

This written proof can be used to negotiate with the seller for a higher price or to make changes to the car before selling.

What are the advantages of an inspection?

You may end up buying a car that is not as durable as you had hoped or that has hidden dangers.

When you choose a pre purchase car inspection in Brisbane you are choosing a service that will come to you, whether it’s at the dealer or the seller’s home.
