A pre purchase car inspection in Sydney is one of the most important steps you can take before buying any used vehicle — whether it's a second-hand petrol hatchback, an electric vehicle, a hybrid SUV, or a prestige European car. Sydney's used car market is one of the largest in Australia, and hidden faults can cost buyers thousands in unexpected repairs after the sale.
Our mobile pre purchase car inspection service operates across all Sydney suburbs — from Western Sydney (Blacktown, Parramatta, Penrith) to the Eastern Suburbs, North Shore, Inner West, South West and beyond. We come to the vehicle's location, inspect it on-site, and deliver a detailed report so you know exactly what you're buying.
Electric vehicle pre purchase inspections require specialist expertise that goes beyond a standard mechanical check. When buying a used EV in Sydney — whether it's a Tesla Model 3 or Model Y, a BYD Atto 3, Seal or Dolphin, a BMW i4 eDrive40 or M50, a Hyundai IONIQ 5 or IONIQ 6, a Kia EV6 or EV9, an Audi Q4 e-tron, a Mercedes EQA or EQC, or any other electric vehicle — you need to know the true health of the high-voltage battery pack.
Battery degradation is the biggest hidden cost in a used EV purchase. A battery that shows 80% state of health (SoH) will deliver significantly reduced range and will be costly to replace. Our EV inspection includes battery health diagnostics, charge cycle history review, charging port and onboard charger assessment, electric motor condition, software fault code scanning and a full road test to verify performance.
We inspect all EV brands and models available in the Australian market including Tesla (all variants), BYD (Atto 3, Seal, Shark, Dolphin, Sealion 6, Sealion 7), BMW (i4, i5, i7, iX, iX1, iX3), Mercedes (EQA, EQB, EQC, EQE, EQS), Audi (Q4 e-tron, Q8 e-tron, A6 e-tron), Hyundai (IONIQ 5, IONIQ 6, IONIQ 9), Kia (EV6, EV9), Polestar (2, 3, 4), Volvo (EX40, EX90), MG (ZS EV, MG4, MG5), Nissan (Leaf, Ariya), GWM Ora, Porsche (Taycan, Macan EV), Lexus (UX 300e, RZ 450e) and all other electric vehicles sold in Australia.
Hybrid vehicles — including full hybrids (HEV) and plug-in hybrids (PHEV) — present their own set of inspection challenges. The dual drivetrain (combustion engine plus electric motor), hybrid battery management system, and regenerative braking require specialist assessment. A standard mechanic without hybrid experience can easily miss critical faults.
Our hybrid pre purchase inspection covers Toyota hybrids (Camry Hybrid, Corolla Hybrid, RAV4 Hybrid, RAV4 PHEV, Yaris Hybrid, C-HR Hybrid, Kluger Hybrid, Landcruiser Hybrid), Lexus hybrids (ES 300h, NX 350h, RX 500h), Honda hybrids (CR-V Hybrid, Accord Hybrid, ZR-V Hybrid), BMW PHEVs (530e, X5 45e, 330e, X3), Mercedes PHEVs, Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV and Eclipse Cross PHEV, Hyundai (Tucson Hybrid, Santa Fe Hybrid), Kia (Sportage Hybrid, Sorento Hybrid), Ford Escape PHEV, Volvo PHEVs, Land Rover and Range Rover PHEVs, Porsche Cayenne PHEV, and all other hybrid models available in Australia.
