When it comes to buying a used AWD or 4WD, vehicle inspections are crucial.
Have you considered whether the vehicle you’re eyeing has been bush-bashed, thrashed, or even submerged?
Four-wheel drives and all-wheel drives go through a lot in their lifetime, so buying a used one can carry a real risk. Especially when you don’t know exactly what to look for.
Our experienced mechanics know their way around four-wheel drives. We’ll inspect the car to ensure you don’t invest in a 4WD or AWD that has been pushed to its limits, skipped critical services, or suffered mechanical setbacks.

4WDs need a little more love and attention than some other vehicles.
In addition to our standard vehicle checks, we meticulously inspect signs of salt corrosion from boat and watercraft launching, as well as evidence of heavy ground contact from off-roading and bush-bashing.
Our scrutiny extends to testing the 4WD systems, evaluating high and low range functionality, checking hub locks, and more. And we don’t forget the aftermarket accessories – we check them out and assess their fitment quality.
Your Swoop mechanic will also take a look at the service history to confirm regular servicing or any repairs.
You’ll get a full understanding of the vehicle’s condition, which will help you make a confident decision whether it’s the car you want to take on your next adventure.
Swoop’s expert mechanics follow a meticulous inspection checklist, including:
