Know the Car Before You Buy It
Buying a used car can feel risky, especially when you’re relying on someone else’s word. That’s where a proper pre-purchase inspection makes the difference.
We inspect the vehicle carefully and give you a clear, honest picture of its condition. If we find issues, we’ll explain what they mean, what could cost you later, and whether they’re minor or serious.
There’s no pressure and no sales agenda. Our job is to give you the facts so you can decide with confidence.
Our focus is simple: help you avoid costly surprises and make a well-informed decision before you buy.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Do I need to book an appointment?
Bookings are recommended, especially for WOFs and servicing. If you’re unsure, call us or request a callback and we’ll confirm availability.
2. Do you explain the work before doing any repairs?
Yes. We’ll explain what we’ve found and why it matters before any work is done. Nothing is repaired without your approval.
3. Will you pressure me to fix things?
No. We’ll tell you what’s required, what’s recommended, and what can wait. You decide what to do and when.
4. How long does most work take?
It depends on the job. WOFs and basic servicing are often completed the same day. For larger jobs, we’ll give you a clear timeframe upfront.
5. What types of vehicles do you work on?
We work on Japanese and European cars, commercial vans, and fleet vehicles.
6. Can I bring my car back later for repairs?
Yes. There’s no obligation to fix everything immediately. You’re welcome to return when it suits you.
7. Do you offer quotes before starting work?
Yes. Once we inspect the vehicle, we’ll provide a clear quote before proceeding with any repairs.
8. How do I get in touch?
You can call us during business hours, request a callback through the website, or visit us at our workshop.
