Why Car Inspect

An independent opinion before a big purchase.

  • Independent inspection

    We don't sell or repair cars. Our only job is to tell you the car's real condition.

  • Real photos & evidence

    Every finding in your report is backed by photos from the inspection.

  • Clear, easy-to-read report

    Know what's good, what's not, and what to check.

  • Fast & convenient

    Book online and we go to where the car is.

An inspection reports the car's condition on the day. It can't guarantee a car will be problem-free in the future. What an inspection can and cannot tell you

FAQ

Questions before you book

What is a pre-purchase car inspection?

An independent check of a used car's condition before you buy it. It covers the engine, transmission, brakes, body and paint, electronics and a road test, and ends with a written, photo-backed report.

How long does a car inspection take?

A Pro inspection takes about 1 hour 15 minutes. A Premium inspection takes about 1 hour 30 minutes.

How much does a car inspection cost?

Pro is currently AED 299 (was AED 349) and Premium is currently AED 399 (was AED 499). Compare packages.

Do you inspect the car where it is?

Yes. Our inspector goes to the car at the seller's home, workplace or dealership. You just need the seller to agree to the inspection. More about mobile inspections.

Is this the same as the RTA vehicle test?

No. We provide a private pre-purchase condition inspection. Official testing for registration or ownership transfer is done at government-approved testing centres. See the difference.

When do I get my report?

Pro reports arrive within 1 to 2 hours of the inspection; Premium within the same hour. See a sample report.
