Pre-purchase inspectionin Al Quoz Industrial Area 3, Dubai

A full check of a used car before you buy, with a written report you can take back to the seller.

Price, time and warrantyto be confirmed: price, time in the workshop and warranty

Buying used? Bring it here before you sign. We check the engine, gearbox, suspension, brakes, tyres, electrics and bodywork, scan for stored fault codes, road-test the car and compare what we find with its service history.

You get a written report of what we found. One customer used it to renegotiate with the dealership selling the car.

When it’s due

Before you sign anything or pay a deposit.
Whether you're buying from a private seller or a dealer.
When the service history has gaps, or there isn't one.
When the car is past its warranty and any repair would be yours to pay.

What we check

Computer diagnostic scan for stored fault codes
Engine and exhaust: leaks, noises, smoke and how it runs
Gearbox: shift quality and fluid condition
Suspension, steering and brakes
Tyres: tread, age and wear pattern
Air conditioning performance
Electrical equipment: windows, lights, locks, screens and sensors
Interior and exterior: paint, panels, trim and wear

What a customer said

“I used these guys for a pre purchase inspection. They facilitate a time at short notice. They do a thorough inspection and produce a report. I was able to use the report to renegotiate with the dealership I was buying the car from.”

Common questionsDraft answers

Is it worth inspecting a car I'm buying from a dealer?

Yes. The dealer's own check is done for the seller. An independent report gives you specific points to negotiate on, or a clear reason to walk away.

Drafted claims to approve (9)

“Nothing is done without your approval.”Can we promise this on every job?

“Genuine, OEM or quality aftermarket parts — you choose.”Do you offer a choice of parts on every job?

“We send photos of worn parts on WhatsApp before we start.”Do you send photos/videos of findings before work starts?

“Most services are done the same day.”Is same-day true for most services?

“Our own paint booth on site.”Is the paint booth still on site?

“Dealer-level diagnosis at independent prices.”Only if you use dealer-level diagnostic tools — which ones?

“20+ years' experience repairing all makes.”Whose experience is this?

“You see what we see.”Will every customer get findings with photos before approving work?

“In Al Quoz Industrial Area 3, head for the National Cement Factory — we are opposite it on 6th Street.”Are these directions right? Which road do most customers come in from, and what do they usually miss?
