One flat price. One comprehensive inspection. An independent 150-point mechanical, safety and cosmetic check — mobile, at the seller's location, before you hand over a dollar. Instant on-the-spot written report with photos, an OBD-II diagnostic scan, and a plain-English buy / walk-away verdict from an authorised NSW inspector.
The average buyer who walks away from a bad car saves $4,000+ in repairs they never had to make.
A written defect list is real leverage. Most sellers drop $500 – $2,000 on the spot.
Photos of the underbody, engine bay and paint reveal accident repairs and rust hidden from a test drive.
The same NSW-licensed examiners who lodge eSafety Checks with Service NSW — not an app or a checklist.
Four disciplines, one report. Every item is graded critical, moderate, or cosmetic — with photos where it matters.
Choose pre-purchase inspection, enter the vehicle and seller details, and confirm in under 60 seconds.
Our team reaches out within 2 business hours to arrange the earliest convenient time at the seller's location.
Mobile inspection at the seller's home, workshop, or dealership — anywhere in Greater Sydney.
Instant on-the-spot written report with photos, defects graded critical / moderate / cosmetic, plus a plain-English verdict.
A flat $280 inc GST covers every light vehicle under 4.5 tonne — cars, SUVs, utes, vans, European, luxury. The same authorised inspectors, the same 150-point check, the same instant on-the-spot written report, every time.
We plug into the high-voltage BMS, run a State-of-Health draw and read the full battery history. A 12% SoH drop wipes $9,000+ off resale — most sellers won't mention it because most sellers don't know. Ask us for a price on your specific model.
Aggregated from the last 12 months of Sydney inspections. Not scare tactics — the median car has one or two of these hiding.
Unrecorded panel repair or repaint
Tyres nearing wear indicators
Oil or coolant leak (main seal, water pump)
DPF or catalytic converter marginal
Brake pads / discs under 30% life
Timing chain rattle or stretched
Dual-mass flywheel / clutch worn
Suspension bush or shock leak
EV battery SoH below 85%
Odometer inconsistency (log-book vs cluster)
Real inspections from the last twelve months, anonymised. Battery degradation a buyer would never have seen. Accident repair the seller didn't disclose. And the occasional perfect car that earns a clean report.
2021 Tesla Model 3 Long Range · 78,400km · Balmain
Private seller asking $42,990. Listing claimed a 'genuine 480km range'. Our battery health test put the pack at 82.4% SoH — well below the ~90% expected for the age and kilometres, on a trajectory pointing at an out-of-warranty replacement the next owner would inherit.
2022 Ford Ranger XLT 3.0L V6 · 41,200km · Blacktown
Dealer listing, 'no accident history'. Our paint-depth gauge read 380μm across the tailgate and rear quarter — nearly triple factory thickness. Under pressure the dealer eventually disclosed the vehicle was a recorded repairable write-off.
2023 BYD Atto 3 Extended Range · 22,400km · Chatswood
Not every inspection finds a problem. Roughly one in five of our reports comes back clean. Here's what that looks like — and why the report is still worth every dollar for the peace of mind of paying asking.
2019 Mazda CX-5 Maxx Sport 2.2L Diesel · 96,800km · Parramatta
Private seller asking $28,990. 'The warning light just needs a reset.' Our scan tool showed 14 failed regen attempts, soot loading at 142% and a torque-converter shudder under load — a five-figure fix on the horizon.
2018 Hyundai i30 Active 2.0L Auto · 64,300km · Liverpool
Mum buying a first car for her P-plater son. Asking $14,990, private seller. Our inspection found no faults of any severity — and gave her the confidence to pay asking without second-guessing herself.
2016 Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk7 2.0 TSI · 124,600km · Newtown
Listed $4,000 below market. Our 7am cold-start caught a 4-second timing-chain rattle. Scan-tool logs confirmed cam-position deviation creeping into the upper tolerance — a documented EA888 wear pattern on Mk7 GTIs that have run extended oil intervals.
2019 Toyota HiAce LWB 2.8L Diesel · displayed 87,400km · Penrith
Trader-private sale, asking $46,990, PPSR clean. The service book showed 87,400km. The windscreen oil-change sticker said 271,800km. The ECU engine-hours counter agreed with the sticker, not the dash.
2022 MG ZS EV Essence · 31,200km · Hornsby
Dealer listing. Pack SoH was a respectable 92.4%, but module 7 was 4.2% below pack average — a known precursor to a single-module warranty replacement. Our senior inspector renegotiated on-site and got the discount in writing.
2017 Subaru Outback 2.5i Premium CVT · 142,800km · Bondi
Family seller asking $17,990. A subtle shudder at 50–70km/h was dismissed as 'a known software thing'. Our stall-speed test, a magnetic plug check and a 30-second fluid sample said otherwise — the fluid was dark and burnt.
2023 Kia EV6 Air RWD · 18,600km · Hurstville
Dealer demo car, asking $52,990. The buyer wanted the confidence to pay full retail on a near-new EV without second-guessing herself for the next five years. We gave it — every checkpoint passed, no findings.
2018 Nissan Navara ST-X 2.3L Twin-Turbo · 168,400km · Campbelltown
Private seller asking $32,500. 'Always garaged, lifelong country ute, never near salt.' The underseal looked suspiciously fresh. A pick through it found rust scale you could lift off in flakes across three of four chassis rail sections.
2016 Toyota Hilux SR5 2.8L Diesel · 134,200km · Castle Hill
Private seller asking $42,990. 'It does a burn-off every morning — totally normal for these.' Our scan tool showed 14 failed regens in the rolling log, 168% soot loading and pressure-sensor readings that pointed straight at Toyota's well-documented 2.8L DPF program.
All findings recorded on-site · vehicles and suburbs anonymised for privacy
A structured on-the-spot report, not a text message. Every finding is severity-graded, photographed and priced. You'll know what to fix, what to negotiate, and what to walk away from — before the sun sets.
2019 Land Rover Range Rover Velar
Structurally sound with one active leak and evidence of a rear-panel respray. Fair market: $42,300. Asking: $47,900. Recommend negotiating to $42,500 subject to seal repair, or walking.
"Saved me from a $4,000 mistake — a repainted rear quarter the seller swore was original. Walked away and thanked them for their time."

Daniel · Bondi Junction
