Vehicle checks
Our qualified mechanics can arrange vehicle checks to suit your needs. Whether it’s buying a car or your warranty is about to expire, we’ll let you know where things stand.
History report
We’ll look into the safety of the car you’re about to buy. We can check if a car has been written off or stolen. And, we can also let you know if there is money still owed.
Small price to pay
When you’re buying a car, no matter the cost, you want to know it’s not going to need major work done after you drive away. An inspection is a small cost when it comes to your peace of mind - both for your safety and financial outlay.

Roadside assistance
Here's what we'll check.
Car history
We’ll do a background check to see if the car has been stolen or is under finance. We’ll also be able to tell if it’s been in a crash that made it a repairable write-off.
Under the bonnet
Getting under the hood, we’ll let you know if it’s due for service or has any logged faults. We can tell if there’s been any recent work or if any work is needed for it to be safe.
Outside the car
Our inspector will look at the general body of the car. We’ll note stone chips, scratches, dents and any noticeable differences in paint colour that might cost you or flag warnings.
Inside and under
You’ll need to know if the heaters are working in Tassie, along with the windows and wipers. We’ll check out underneath too and let you know of any rust or damage.
Tyres
Let us check the tread, check they’re all the same size and if there is any damage. We’ll also check the pressure and make sure there is no uneven wear.
Road test
Getting your car on the road will tell us a whole lot more. We'll be listening for unusual noises that may let us know if things like the clutch, gears or bearings need work.
