Pre-Purchase Inspection
Know What Youâre GettingâBefore You Purchase
Buying a vehicle, new or used, is an exciting moment in a personâs life! Iâm sure many people have heard their family members or friends talk fondly about the first car they ever owned. While plenty of these memories are positive or uneventful, not everyone shared that sentiment. Why? Well, it could be for a variety of reasons, but the most common explanation is their investment ended up being a never-ending money pit, or a âlemonâ. The weight of dealing with significant financial or emotional distress caused by expensive repairs or unreliable transportation can be exhausting. And thatâs where we step in.
While buying a new vehicle typically bypasses this problem, buying a used vehicle of any kind has the possibility of being problematic. Thatâs why The Euro Shop offers three kinds of pre-purchase inspections to help you make the informed decision thatâs best for you (and your wallet).
What To Expect With Your Inspection
The purpose of a pre-purchase inspection is to provide the potential buyer with a detailed assessment performed by a certified technician. During the inspection, all mechanical and cosmetic aspects are reviewed, and any possible safety issues are documented.
Areas Checked During A Routine Pre-Purchase Inspection:
Dashboard
Tires
Fluids
Brakes
Engine
Transmission
Exhaust
Current Body Condition
Lights
HVAC
What To Expect With Your Inspection
We offer three options for pre-purchase inspections, which provides potential buyers a wider range of services to best suit their needs and inquiries.
Level 1
Level 2
Level 3
Everything that is in Level 1 and 2, but it also includes a trip to our partner body shop (County Line Collision) so they can put the vehicle on a frame machine and inspect for frame damage or repair. This is mostly important if there is a known history of a collision. Verifying the condition of the frame can indicate whether or not there was structural damage to the vehicle as a result of a collision.
Post-Purchase Inspection- Purchase a vehicle and want to know what work needs done? We offer the same three levels of inspection to recently-purchased vehicles, too.
