Pre-Purchase Inspections

We can arrange these for you.

There is a 50 point inspection checklist with written report including an approximate valuation and an indication of repair costs for any major faults present. A roadtest is also included if the vehicle is in a safe condition to drive. I can also include a document check and pay a deposit on your behalf to secure the vehicle if you are not local.

All transactions can take place through PAYPAL for additional security or to allow credit card payment if required (3.4% + 20p fee)

The cost within the M25 is usually £59.95. If outside the M25 £59.95 + 20 pence per mile travel expenses.

This service also includes a voucher redeemable against future membership should the inspection lead to a purchase.

Alternatively if the vendor is agreeable I can arrange for a garage to carry out a more thorough inspection on a lift i.e. including underneath, chassis etc. This will cost an additional £20.

It is also possible that the vehicle may be one I (or another member) already know and/or have seen previously in which case it may be possible to give some informal advice.
