Used Car Inspection Service

The best advice, when buying a pre-owned car, is to have a mechanic inspect the used car before you buy it. Isn’t your peace of mind worth checking things out if you are paying thousands of dollars for a “new to you” pre-owned car?

Most people selling their car or truck will let you take the car for a test drive. Honest people selling their cars should allow you to take the vehicle into a mechanic for an inspection. If the seller hesitates, you might want to consider what they’re hiding. With a good pre-purchase inspection you will know what you are getting and have peace of mind.
