What is a pre purchase car inspection?
A pre purchase car inspection is a comprehensive mechanical and safety check performed by a licensed mechanic before you buy a used vehicle. It includes inspecting the engine, brakes, suspension, tyres, lights, body condition, signs of previous accidents, and more. The goal is to uncover any hidden issues, assess the vehicle’s condition, and help you make an informed buying decision.
Why should I get a used car inspected before buying?
A used car inspection helps avoid expensive surprises by revealing underlying mechanical problems, safety concerns, or tampering. It gives you peace of mind, a clearer understanding of repair costs, and can be used as leverage in price negotiations. Without an inspection, you risk buying a car with hidden damage or unreliable components.
How long does a vehicle inspection take?
A thorough pre purchase vehicle inspection generally takes 30-45 minutes. The mechanic will check all major mechanical systems, the condition of tyres and brakes, underbody components, fluid levels, warning lights, and may also carry out a short road test. The results are usually provided in a detailed report or summary.
