icon Inspection & Collection

  • Our driver will call you directly to confirm arrangements
  • You will usually get a call within a day of accepting the offer
  • Our drivers are on the road full time so they don’t make calls when driving
  • We also need time to run the background checks on the car and collect the money from the bidder

  • Once an offer is accepted, we try to get all sales closed off within 3-4 days.
  • If you live in a more distant location, it may be slightly longer
  • If a driver is in a location sooner we will let you know but we quote 3-4 days
  • Rest assured, our business is getting the transaction completed so the driver will be in touch with you.

  • Yes if you wish, our depot is just outside Naas
  • You will need to make contact with us to make an appointment
  • All of the background checks would need to be clear before you arrive
  • If you have finance to clear, you will still need your settlement letter in advance

  • We have 3 drivers who look after different part of the country
  • Depending on where you are will determine which driver it is
  • He will call to introduce himself in advance anyway
  • You can finalize any special instruction or directions at that point

  • You will need the car, keys and logbook ready
  • Your photo ID and proof of address
  • The car will need to be taken out and in a position where we can be easily inspected and load onto our truck. 
  • We have a lot of calls to make and don’t have time to wait for an hour while somebody moves 10 cars. 
  • Make sure the car is clean and ready for inspection
  • A filthy car is a red flag of someone trying to hide something so the inspector insist you get the car washed before he does his checks

  • Our inspectors are all qualified mechanics with years of experience.

  • They look at hundreds of cars each week and have a set list of items to check

  • The information you supplied will be printed off including the photos

  • Everything needs to match exactly especially the photos

  • Mileage is the No1 thing cars fail on and the first thing checked

  • If you put down 100,000km and its 100,00 miles, the car will fail and sale cancelled

  • He’ll check the following items (and more)

    • Has it been crashed?

    • Has an insurance company previously written it off?

    • Have panels, wings or bumpers been painted covering previous damage?

    • Is the mileage 100% genuine (not clocked or altered in anyway)

    • Are there excessive marks, scratches, dents, damage and scrapes which are not visible on the photos we have but will be on inspection

    • Is there gearbox noise - whining sound, not selecting gears?

    • Engine noise - bearing, drive shaft, injectors

    • Are there any warning lights on the dash?

    • Is there oil spilling out it

    • Is it overheating?

    • When driving - badly pulling to one side or the other

    • Are the shock absorbers leaking?

    • Have the airbag ever been deployed?

    • Does the VRN and chassis numbers match

  • When the inspector completes his checks, he will get you to sign the following items:
  • Sale document confirming the transaction, the bill of sale
  • You are the registered owner and no else has any claim to it
  • There is no outstanding finance
  • The mileage is 100% accurate and never been tampered with
  • The car has never been crashed as per the information you supplied online
  • The car has no major mechanical faults as per the information you supplied online

  • It’s the sellers responsibility to provide a full and truthful description of their car
  • If there is something wrong with it on inspection, which hasn’t been disclosed, the car may fail inspection
  • If something comes to light post sale which was known to the seller prior to sale, then the seller assumes full responsibility
  • For the avoidance of any doubt, if the seller interferes with the cars onboard computer to change mileage, switch off warning light or changes setting to deliberately hide a known fault, the seller bears all responsibility.
  • If the seller has been notified by the NCT or dealer a major fix is required that has not been disclosed, the seller bears all responsibility
  • Luckily, 99.99% of people are straight up and honest but we’ve come across our fair share of chancers.
  • We have a duty of care to both buyer and seller and provide a top class service in an industry which at the best of times is a mine field to navigate, if you are not comfortable with any of the above, we don’t have a problem not doing business with you.
  • This also should demonstrate to our buyers the level of care we go to, to make sure no one is ripped off and left with a lemon from an unscrupulous seller
