Pre-Purchase Car Inspection

$110

I arranged a pre-purchase inspection with James to attend on my behalf & inspect a car. Seller's photos looked amazing & he described it to be in new condition. James supplied comprehensive and detailed photographs, videos & diagnostic reports. James discovered the vehicle had been involved in a collision & the paintwork to be in extremely poor condition. Very professional with an eye for detail. Saved me $23k. Thanks again!

I need someone cheap who can do pre-purchase car inspections with me. Doesn't need to be a high profile mechanic but just an experienced mechanic who knows what he is doing. The are few cars shortlisted around Parramatta and few in northern suburbs. The exact addresses will only be known until Saturday morning. The inspections will be mainly for Toyota Yaris 2005-2015 models. Person must be able to: - Identify if any major issues - Identify known issues and the amount to fix/repair - Must have their own device to check engine code - Negotiate buying price according to condition - Travel in their own car The plan is we start inspecting cars starting from Saturday 10 am until 5 pm. The inspections may not be a lot due to travelling from one place to another. P.S. Exact locations will only be known on Saturday morning. Lunch will be at restaurant for free.

Inspect a car as soon as possible somewhere around the campsie area. This is the car. https://www.facebook.com/share/1AsxchiEeB/?mibextid=wwXIfr. It’s old with low k’s, I’m not majorly fussed with cosmetics but mostly wanting to know if there’s any money to spend on the car now or in the near future, or any red flags.

Great inspection report, great communication. , very detailed, concise, helpful and responsive. I’d certainly recommend Adam for pre purchase vehicle inspections.
