Pre Purchase Inspections
Thinking about buying a used Volkswagen, Audi or Škoda? Our pre-purchase inspections give you a clearer picture of the vehicle’s condition before you commit to the purchase.
Know What You’re Buying Before You Buy
Buying a second-hand vehicle can be exciting, but problems that aren't obvious during a test drive can quickly become expensive. A professional pre-purchase inspection by the experienced team at Volks Home can identify existing mechanical issues, signs of wear and potential problems that may need attention. We specialise in Volkswagen, Audi and Škoda vehicles and understand the common mechanical and technical issues associated with these vehicles. Our inspection gives you useful information to help you make a more informed decision before handing over your money.
Pre Purchase Inspection Pricing
Inspection pricing can vary depending on the vehicle and the level of inspection required. Contact Volks Home with the vehicle details to discuss your inspection and receive a quote.
Independent Advice You Can Trust
Our role is to provide an independent assessment of the vehicle's mechanical condition based on what we can identify during the inspection. We explain our findings clearly so you can make an informed decision about the purchase.
Confidence Before You Buy
We can't predict every future mechanical issue, but a professional inspection can give you a much clearer understanding of the vehicle's condition before you commit to the purchase.
A Thorough Inspection Before You Commit
We inspect the vehicle from a mechanical and practical perspective, looking for issues that may not be apparent during a standard test drive. Depending on the vehicle, this can include checking the engine, transmission, cooling system, brakes, steering and suspension, tyres, fluid leaks and general mechanical condition. We can also identify signs of previous repairs, component wear and other areas that may require attention. Once the inspection is complete, we explain our findings clearly so you understand the condition of the vehicle and can make your own decision about whether to proceed with the purchase.
What We Look For
We can't predict every future mechanical issue, but a professional inspection can give you a much clearer understanding of the vehicle's condition before you commit to the purchase.
