Car pre-delivery inspection

Pre-delivery inspection before you accept the car

Once you've signed for a car, problems become harder to raise. We check it at handover so anything wrong is noted before you accept it.

Car pre-delivery inspection

Why check a car at delivery?

New cars can arrive with transport damage, paint defects, missing accessories or warning codes. Used cars bought remotely may not match the description you agreed to.

A pre-delivery inspection gives you an independent record of the car's condition at handover, with photos — so you can ask for issues to be fixed before you take the keys.

Steps

FAQ

Pre-Delivery Inspection questions

Is a pre-delivery inspection useful for a brand-new car?

Yes. New cars can still have transport damage, paint defects or fitting issues. It's much easier to have these fixed before you accept the car.

Which package should I choose?

Pro covers a full inspection including diagnostics and a road test. Premium adds deeper checks and is better suited to luxury and high-value cars.
