Ah, the pre-purchase vehicle inspection: your last line of defense against a lemon masquerading as a beauty. For around $150-$300 AUD, a qualified mechanic will scrutinise everything from chassis rust to engine health, giving you peace of mind before handing over your hard-earned dosh. Expect checks on brakes, suspension, tyres, electronics, and a thorough test drive. Common issues spotted include hidden accident damage, odometer tampering, and engine oil leaks.
Consider browsing ServiceCentral for reputable inspectors near you, and don’t be shy about demanding a full report.
