Frequently Asked Questions

Do you give advice about whether or not to buy a car you have just inspected?
We provide an impartial, comprehensive report on every vehicle we inspect; however,
the final decision to purchase rests with our client.

I saw a car I'm interested in buying; when can I arrange an inspection?
Within 48 hours; in fact, we are usually are able to do the inspection within one
business day of taking a booking.

I work Monday to Friday - can an inspection be done on the weekend?
Yes. Our mobile service is available 7 days per week (daylight hours).

The car I'm thinking about buying is at Windsor; does that pose a problem?
Not at all. Independent Vehicle Inspections is a mobile service and we conduct
motor vehicle inspections anywhere across metropolitan Sydney.

My last car had a faulty alternator; how can I avoid buying another car that
has the same problem?
The alternator is just one part that is thoroughly assessed in our exclusive
comprehensive vehicle inspection plan.

Will you take the car for a test drive?
Yes. A road test is yet another part of our comprehensive pre-purchase inspection.

Why should I use Independent Vehicle Inspections?

may be considering buying. We have no affiliation with any dealership or car manufacturer.
Our comprehensive inspection and on-road test will provide you with the peace of mind - as well as knowledge - you need in deciding whether a particular vehicle represents a good value-for-money purchase.
