Pre-Purchase Vehicle Inspection

Buying a used Audi, VW, or any vehicle? Get an independent inspection before you commit. We check everything the seller won't tell you — and give you a detailed report with photos so you can make an informed decision.

What We Check

Know Before You Buy

A pre-purchase inspection saves you from buying someone else's problems. We go through the vehicle bumper to bumper and give you an honest assessment of what you're actually buying.

Bumper-to-Bumper Inspection

Engine, transmission, brakes, suspension, steering, exhaust, electrical, cooling system, tires -- we check every system thoroughly.

Photo Report You Can Keep

You get a full report with photos of every finding. Share it with the seller, use it to negotiate, or just know what you're getting into.

Hidden Problems Found

Previous accident repairs, paint work, oil leaks, worn suspension, timing chain stretch -- we find what a test drive won't reveal.

Road Test & Full Diagnostic Scan

If the vehicle has plates, we road test it to check for noises, vibrations, shifting issues, and steering feel. Every inspection includes a complete diagnostic scan of every module in the car -- not just the engine.

European Cars Need European Expertise

Audi and VW models have specific failure points at certain mileages — timing chains, water pumps, mechatronic units, Haldex systems. A general shop won't know to check these. We do, because we service them every day.

FAQ

Pre-Purchase Inspection Questions, Answered

Pre-purchase inspections range from $299 to $749 depending on the age and complexity of the vehicle. An older high-mileage car takes more time to evaluate than a newer one. Call us at (603) 207-4004 or schedule online and we will give you an exact price based on the specific vehicle you are looking at.
Yes, both. You can bring a vehicle from a dealership or a private sale. Some dealers will let you take the car to us directly — others may need a little coordination. Either way, we'll work with you to make it happen.
We document everything we find with photos and notes and go through the results with you. We'll tell you what's wrong, what it would cost to fix, and whether the vehicle is still worth buying. The decision is always yours — we just give you the information to make a good one.
Most inspections take a few hours depending on the vehicle. We offer a free loaner car for every service visit, so you can drop it off and go about your day.
Yes. A free loaner car is included with every service visit, including pre-purchase inspections. Drop off the vehicle, take one of ours, and we'll call you when the inspection is done.
We inspect all makes and models. Audi and VW are our specialty — we know exactly where those cars fail and what to look for at every mileage — but we're experienced with all vehicles and will give you a thorough inspection regardless of the brand. Learn more about our general auto repair services.
