Stephen Mattey2025-07-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A positive experience. Swoop is a small local business, I was happy to support them. I requested the report online and Luke did it the following day. He emailed it within an hour or so of completion, then called me to explain his findings. The report was very comprehensive and gave me the confidence to proceed with the purchase. Money well spent!

Luke did an amazing job friendly service got back to me when I asked questions and was only to happy to follow up on my behalf. Would highly recommend Luke for your next inspection honest and reliable. Great idea to get an inspection done especially when your unable to view the car yourself and would have no idea what to look for. Lisa Thompson2025-07-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Luke has inspected two cars for me now, and both times the scheduling was INCREDIBLY quick - like, I sent an enquiry on the Sunday and the report was in my e-mail by Monday afternoon. Both times, his inspection was meticulous, accompanied by lots of photos to help make sense of the report, and a really detailed phonecall to talk me through the findings and potential implications for repair costs. I asked a whole lot of questions, and Luke was thorough and patient in his responses to each of them. I would recommend him without question. Thanks again, Luke!

Luke at Swoop was so helpful in providing me with information to confidently buy a car through private sale. He thoroughly inspected the car at a pre-purchase inspection and provided a detailed summary of all findings.

I cannot speak highly enough of this business.
Luke was punctual, courteous, and most importantly, knows his stuff! I used Swoop for a pre-purchase inspection of a motor vehicle. The report was comprehensive and contained 55 images of the car I was looking to buy. I can recommend Luke without a moment’s hesitation.

Luke gave a detailed and honest vehicle report.
He also responded to any further questions I had in a timely manner. Would recommend Swoop to anyone.
