Mobile Vehicle Pre Purchase Inspection
Know exactly what you’re buying. No guesswork. No surprises.
When you’re buying a used vehicle, you’re not just purchasing a car you’re taking on its history, its condition, and potentially its problems. That’s why we don’t believe in “basic” or tiered inspections. We do one thing, and we do it properly, a full comprehensive pre purchase inspection that leaves nothing to chance.
Our qualified mechanic comes to the vehicle location and performs what we believe is the most detailed mobile pre purchase inspection on the Sunshine Coast. Every car is treated with the same meticulous care we’d give our own. From mechanical condition to hidden faults, legal checks to signs of tampering — we cover it all. You’ll get clear answers and complete peace of mind, all without needing to be there in person.
Why Choose Our Inspection?
• No shortcuts. No partial checks.
We only offer one level of inspection - the right one. You’ll know everything there is to know about the vehicle.
• We look deeper.
Where others stop at a quick scan or test drive, we dig into the details most people miss, including signs of tampering, recently masked problems, or looming mechanical issues.
• Complete independence.
We work for you, not the seller. No bias, no fluff, just honest reporting.
