WHAT YOU GET
No unexplained “pass” tick. Each area has a condition rating, observations and a clear record of what was actually checked.
UNDERSTAND THE LIMITS
A pre-purchase inspection is not a roadworthy certificate, warranty, valuation or guarantee of future reliability. Intermittent or hidden faults may not be evident during the inspection.
A PPSR search is a separate check for recorded security interests and available vehicle information. Match the VIN and arrange your own official search before buying.
Official PPSR vehicle search ↗Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law are not excluded or restricted by our inspection scope.
