Comprehensive Safety Checks Birmingham Drivers Depend On
A thorough safety assessment examines your vehicle's critical systems before you commit to a purchase or when persistent warning lights appear. Unlike a standard service that follows scheduled maintenance intervals, a detailed inspection investigates specific concerns you've noticed or verifies a used car's true condition. You get professional diagnostic equipment scanning engine management systems, brake efficiency testing, suspension component examination, and structural integrity checks that reveal exactly what you're buying or what's causing that worrying noise on your commute through Harborne or Kings Heath.

Complete vehicle inspection Process
Schedule and Vehicle Collection
Book your inspection slot and we collect the vehicle from the seller's location or your Birmingham address using our specialized transport, eliminating coordination hassles during your busy schedule.
Comprehensive Diagnostic Scanning
DVSA-certified technicians connect professional diagnostic equipment to scan all electronic control modules, revealing hidden fault codes, sensor issues, and engine management problems invisible during test drives.
Structural and Undercarriage Examination
We lift the vehicle to inspect chassis integrity, suspension mounting points, exhaust condition, brake line corrosion, and signs of previous accident damage or poor repair work concealed from casual viewing.
Mechanical Systems Assessment
Technicians evaluate engine condition, transmission operation, clutch wear, brake efficiency, steering responsiveness, and fluid conditions to identify components nearing failure or requiring immediate attention.
Photographic Documentation Report
You receive a detailed digital report with photographs showing component conditions, fault code explanations, and transparent cost estimates for identified issues, giving you negotiating power or repair clarity.
Expert Recommendation Consultation
We explain findings in plain language, advise whether problems are deal-breakers or negotiable repairs, and provide honest guidance on whether to proceed with purchase or address existing vehicle concerns.
Independent examination before purchasing saves you from expensive surprises that sellers conveniently forget to mention, with our technicians uncovering hidden accident damage, worn timing belts, or failing clutches that could cost thousands shortly after purchase. You negotiate confidently with documented evidence of necessary repairs, often recouping our inspection fee many times over through reduced purchase price. Birmingham's diverse used car market from Aston dealerships to private sellers in Sutton Coldfield means having expert verification protects you from costly mistakes that affect your family's safety and budget.

“Saved me from buying a nightmare. The seller swore everything was perfect but their inspection found a cracked subframe and timing belt due in 3,000 miles. Used their photographic report to knock £800 off the price, which more than covered the repairs they then did for me. Worth every penny.”
