Avoid Costly Mistakes with ACE Vehicle Inspections
Buying a second-hand car can be tricky. Even a vehicle that looks great on the outside can hide serious problems underneath. That’s why ACE Mechanics offers detailed pre-purchase vehicle inspections to ensure you know exactly what you’re buying—so you don’t waste money on a dud or put your family at risk.
Why You Need a Pre-Purchase Vehicle Inspection
Buying a used car without knowing its full condition can lead to expensive repairs down the line or, worse, dangerous driving conditions. A pre-purchase inspection helps you:
- Check if the vehicle is safe – Ensure it’s in good working condition before you drive away.
- Identify hidden issues – Spot potential faults to help you negotiate a better price.
- Avoid buyer’s remorse – Prevent dealing with the hassle of chasing the previous owner over issues not disclosed.
- Buy interstate – With a full report, detailed photos and a discussion with the mechanic you have full peace of mind.
What’s Included in Our Vehicle Inspection?
Our expert technicians use a detailed 117-point checklist to thoroughly inspect the vehicle, including:
- Mechanical systems check
- Operational components evaluation
- Interior and exterior inspection
- Electronic diagnostic scan – We use advanced tools to scan the vehicle’s ECU for error codes.
- Test drive (if permitted by the seller) to assess how the vehicle runs.
Once completed, you’ll receive a written report and a phone call summary of our findings, giving you all the information you need to make a confident decision.
