Talal was fantastic with his pre-purchase inspection. Did a thorough check of the car, explained what will need to be replaced and gave me a reasonable timeframe of when (as well as a quick and cheap quote for the works). Have used him before are will continue to use him for all my mechanical needs.

Vehicle pre-purchase inspection

$180

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!
