FAQ
What should I do if a pre-purchase inspection finds minor issues?
If the inspection reveals minor issues, don’t panic—it’s common for used vehicles to show some wear. Use the report to negotiate a better price or ask the seller to fix the issues before purchase. Always prioritise safety-related repairs. Even if the car seems roadworthy, addressing small problems early can save you larger repair bills later on. It also shows the seller you’re a serious, informed buyer.
Can I get a pre-purchase inspection for a private sale?
Yes, pre-purchase inspections are especially important for private sales, where legal protections are more limited than through a dealership. These inspections help confirm the condition of the vehicle and protect you from buying a car with hidden defects. Always arrange the inspection before finalising payment. A private seller should be willing to accommodate this request—if they refuse, consider it a red flag and explore other options.
What’s the difference between a basic and comprehensive inspection?
A basic inspection typically checks visible safety features and general mechanical condition. A comprehensive inspection goes further, evaluating suspension, diagnostics, brakes, tyres, underbody, and conducting a road test. It may also include a scan of the car’s computer systems for hidden errors. For peace of mind, especially with older or high-value vehicles, a comprehensive check is well worth the extra cost and gives you a much clearer picture of the car’s condition.
