WHAT IS A PRE-PURCHASE INSPECTION?

A pre-purchase inspection (PPI) is a professional vehicle inspection in which the entire vehicle is thoroughly checked for evidence of mechanical, structural, or cosmetic damage before it’s purchased. This detailed report can help you determine if the car being inspected is worth the investment you are going to put in it. The licensed mechanic or technician will help determine whether the vehicle is suitable for sale throughout the inspection process. This can potentially save you thousands of dollars by preventing you from buying a damaged car. 

A pre-purchase car inspection is an investment that can pay off in the short-term as well. If a mechanic informs you of existing mechanical problems under the hood, you can use those issues to negotiate a better purchasing price from the owner. 

More than anything, a classic car pre-purchase inspection offers buyers peace of mind. Unless you’re an automotive expert, chances are you might miss something. By receiving a second opinion from an experienced mechanic, you can find out whether the vehicle you’re buying is worth its asking price.
