Pre-purchase inspection in Riyadh
Pre-purchase inspection — carried out in our Riyadh workshop with marque-specific equipment

A pre-purchase inspection is the cheapest insurance you can buy. A used European car can look excellent outside while hiding accident repair, a fault stored in a distant module, or a gearbox close to needing major work. Our inspection ends in a written report that tells you what you will spend after buying — not just "good" or "bad".

An inspection before buying costs far less than a surprise after. We give an impartial view: the car's real condition, what it will need soon and roughly what that costs.

A pre-purchase inspection is the cheapest insurance you can buy. A used European car can look excellent outside while hiding accident repair, a fault stored in a distant module, or a gearbox close to needing major work. Our inspection ends in a written report that tells you what you will spend after buying — not just "good" or "bad".

01

Electronic scan and fault history

We scan every module and read stored faults and error counters, which reveal what a visual check cannot: a repeating sensor fault, frequent stability system intervention, or codes cleared very recently. We also cross-check the odometer against module data, look for non-original coding or updates, and assess battery and charging health.

02

Body, paint and accident evidence

We measure paint thickness on every panel and compare the readings, because differences expose respray work even when it was done well. We inspect fender and pillar bolts, look for welding traces, filler or uneven panel gaps, and lift the car to check the underbody for distortion or previous structural repair.

03

Mechanical performance and road test

We run a compression test when needed, check for leaks, assess suspension, brakes and tyres, then road-test the car while logging engine, gearbox, steering and braking behaviour. The final report sorts findings into: needs repair now, needs watching soon, and cosmetic notes — an order that helps you negotiate with numbers.

When to inspect before paying

A car can look excellent outside; the inspection reveals what the eye misses.

Advice from the workshop floor

Practical notes learned from cars that came through the workshop, useful even if you never visit us.

  • 1Inspect before paying a deposit, not after.
  • 2Ask to start the car from cold; many noises disappear once warm.
  • 3A cheap car with unknown history usually costs more than a documented, pricier one.

What reassures you before handing over your car

Clear written commitments from diagnosis to handover.

  • Warranty on completed work

    The warranty scope is stated on the invoice; if the same symptom returns during it, the car is checked without a new diagnostic fee.

  • Nothing starts without approval

    You receive the fault, parts and labour report before dismantling or replacement begins.

  • Your old parts are returned

    Replaced parts remain available until collection and are shown to you clearly.

  • A written record of every visit

    Inspection readings, work, date and mileage are recorded so the next visit is faster and more accurate.
