No driveway needed. An inspector comes to the car in a basement, a building car park or on the street, and emails your report about 30 minutes after finishing.

City cars often look like the safest buys on the market — low kilometres, one owner, parked undercover. But they are driven in stop-start traffic, squeezed into tight basements and can sit for days between trips.
Listings move fast and there is often pressure to pay a deposit before anyone has looked at the car properly. Book the inspection first. A seller who won't allow one has told you something useful.
Basement ramp and kerb damage
Steep ramps scrape sills, bumpers and exhaust components, and tight turns stress steering parts. Check the underside edges and the wheels, not just the paint.
Cars that sit for days
A car that barely moves can have a weak battery, flat-spotted tyres and old fuel. Ask how often it was driven, not just how far.
Ex-lease and novated cars
Often well serviced on paper but handed back with brakes and tyres near the limit. Budget for what is due next, not just what was done.
Used EVs
Inner-city listings include a growing number of EVs. Battery condition can't be judged on a short drive — book the EV Battery Flash Test for an electric car.

Yes, as long as we can get in. Tell us about security access, visitor parking and any height limit when you book so the inspector isn't stuck at the gate.

Complete Vehicle Inspection is $280 (was $350), Japanese Import History & Inspection $312 and EV Battery Flash Test $384. The price is the same across our service area, and your second car is 40% off at checkout.
Wherever it is parked — the seller's home, a dealership, a workplace or a public car park. Tell us about any access details (security gates, basement height limits) when you book.
