Thank you!! Super impressed the way Milinda communicated with me through the whole process, I was not present due to work and was able to get their way to the car with no hassles at all. Followed with a detailed report. Fantastic, if I ever need anything car related, I’ll be back! Thank you 😊

I am so glad we had Jimmy in our corner before we went through with buying a car! Jimmy has been top notch - professional, punctual, and responsive, all for a very short notice booking. The reports he sent after the inspection were incredibly thorough and really helped us in our decision. If in doubt, I'd say go with Jimmy!

I am looking at a Toyota Hiace this Wednesday at 5.15 pm in Boronia and would love a mechanic to come with me, as I am not able to inspect the car thoroughly myself. Especially things like the Injectors, Timing belt and preferably with a computer scan to see faulty messages. Thanks for reaching out!

Kamila and Adam are amazing! I feel very grateful that I had them for the pre purchase inspection. They are thorough and extremely professional. What I appreciated most was that they took the time to talk to me and explain me crucial points to look at - I’ve learnt something! Will definitely call them for further help, inspections and issues. Very pleasant experience.

Hi there, I’m urgently looking for a qualified mechanic for pre-purchase inspection of a possible car I want to buy… I’m looking at a Subaru, a Toyota and a Nissan…. You will need to be qualified, punctual and trustworthy as I may purchase two cars and I want to ensure is not a hidden fault or oil leak etc…. I know is a short notice but please only reply if you are available this evening. Thank you

Couldn't be happier with Kamila and his partner team. Super thorough, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. They explained everything clearly and made the whole process stress-free. Although the car wasn't recommended, their honest and thorough inspection saved me a lots of money in the long run. Highly recommend to anyone buying a vehicle and wanting someone honest, genuine and trustworthy on their side. Amazing service, thank you guys 😊
