PRE-PURCHASE
INSPECTION.
Professional used-car inspection to help you understand the condition of a vehicle before you commit to buying it.
INSPECT BEFORE
YOU COMMIT.
A used vehicle can look excellent on the outside while still having mechanical wear, leaks, warning signs or maintenance items that may require attention.
A pre-purchase inspection can help identify visible or detectable concerns before you decide whether to buy the vehicle.
Meshkov Motors provides independent vehicle inspections from our Richmond workshop.
WHAT CAN BE CHECKED?
ENGINE CONDITION
General engine operation, visible leaks, abnormal noises and other obvious concerns.
COOLING SYSTEM
Visible condition of cooling system components, fluid level and obvious signs of leakage.
BRAKES
General brake system condition and visible wear or concerns where accessible.
SUSPENSION & STEERING
Inspection for obvious wear, looseness, noise or visible component concerns.
TYRES
General tyre condition, wear pattern and other visible concerns.
WARNING LIGHTS & DIAGNOSTICS
Dashboard warning lights and available diagnostic information may be checked where appropriate.
THINGS WORTH KNOWING BEFORE YOU BUY
Oil, coolant or other fluid leaks may indicate maintenance or repair work is required.
Check Engine Light or other warning messages may require further diagnosis.
Engine, suspension, steering or drivetrain noises may point to developing problems.
Uneven wear can be associated with alignment, suspension or steering issues.
Missing or unclear service history can make future maintenance requirements harder to assess.
Signs of previous mechanical work may justify closer inspection of the affected area.
AN INSPECTION HELPS.
IT IS NOT A GUARANTEE.
A pre-purchase inspection can identify many visible, audible or detectable concerns, but it cannot guarantee that a used vehicle has no hidden or future faults.
Some internal, intermittent or developing problems may not be apparent at the time of inspection.
The purpose is to give you more information about the vehicle’s condition before making your purchase decision.
MORE INFORMATION BEFORE YOU BUY
A professional inspection can help you understand what may require servicing, repair or further investigation.
KNOW MORE BEFORE YOU DECIDE.
INDEPENDENT INSPECTION
Have the vehicle assessed independently before making your purchase decision.
MECHANICAL CONDITION
Identify visible mechanical concerns and maintenance items requiring attention.
UNDERSTAND POSSIBLE COSTS
Identified repair or maintenance needs may help you understand possible future expenses.
MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION
Use the inspection information as part of deciding whether the vehicle is right for you.
