Inspection

Common questions
Can I get an inspection before I've agreed to buy?
Absolutely — that's the ideal time. We recommend booking before you sign anything or hand over a deposit.
Do you inspect private sales and dealer vehicles?
Yes, we inspect vehicles from both private sellers and dealerships anywhere in South East Queensland.
What do I get at the end of the inspection?
A detailed written report with photos, a condition rating for each system, and a clear summary of any issues found.
What if the seller won't allow an inspection?
That's a red flag. Any reputable seller should welcome an independent inspection — we'd advise caution if they refuse.
