Pre-Purchase Vehicle Inspections in Slacks Creek & Surrounding Suburbs
Buying a used car can be exciting — but it can also be risky if you don’t know its true condition. At Toros Roadworthy, we provide comprehensive pre-purchase inspections so you can make an informed decision before handing over your money.
We don’t just give you a quick once-over. We carry out a thorough mechanical and safety check, looking for hidden issues that could cost you thousands down the track.
Why You Need a Pre-Purchase Inspection
Protect Yourself Before You Buy
A shiny exterior and low odometer reading can hide serious problems. Without a professional inspection, you could end up with:
Expensive repair bills for faults not disclosed by the seller
A vehicle that fails a roadworthy inspection soon after purchase
Safety risks for you and your passengers
Our inspections give you the facts — so you can negotiate a better deal, or walk away if the car isn’t worth it.
What’s Included in Our Pre-Purchase Inspection
From Safety to Mechanical Health
Our pre-purchase inspection covers:

Pre-Purchase Inspection vs Roadworthy Certificate
What’s the Difference?
A Roadworthy Certificate (RWC) only confirms that a vehicle meets minimum safety standards — it doesn’t cover the car’s overall mechanical health.
A pre-purchase inspection goes deeper, looking at the car’s condition, potential repair costs, and long-term reliability. That’s why many buyers choose to get both — a pre-purchase inspection before buying, and an RWC if they proceed with the purchase.

Pre-Purchase Inspections – FAQ
Common Buyer Questions

Yes — our mobile service can meet the seller anywhere in our service area.
Do you check for accident history?
We visually inspect for signs of past damage, but for official history reports we recommend a PPSR check.
Can I be present during the inspection?
Yes, if the seller allows it — many buyers find it helpful to hear our findings in person.

Yes — we provide a clear report and highlight any urgent issues.
