EXCELLENT Based on 267 reviews Gabriele Giuffre2025-05-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Outstanding Pre-Purchase Inspection Service! Had a fantastic experience with Luke for a pre-purchase car inspection. He was incredibly thorough, professional, and clearly knowledgeable. He took the time to walk me through everything he found, both good and bad (luckily no much) which gave me total peace of mind before finalising the purchase. The report was detailed and easy to understand, and the service was prompt and well worth the cost. Thanks to their insight, I felt confident walking away from a car that would’ve cost me much more in the long run. Highly recommend to anyone buying a used car!

He arrived right on time for the inspection and delivered a detailed, thorough report that gave me the confidence to negotiate $1k off the asking price. He went above and beyond by calling me personally to explain a few key points in the report, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend his services!
