Pre-purchase car inspection in Toronto
From downtown condos to Etobicoke and Scarborough driveways, Toronto has the busiest private car market in Ontario. That also means more rushed sellers, curbsiders and cars with hidden problems.
Street parking and underground garages make it hard to see a car properly. We bring lights and a scanner, and check the car where it is. If repairs are needed, two partner shops are close by: AC/DC Auto Centre at 1749 Albion Rd, Etobicoke (647-366-6660, ask for Malik), which also does safety inspections, and Right Auto Service Centre at 2025 Wilson Ave (416-742-3327, ask for Luigi), can help, and you book with them directly.
What you get for $199 $149

- Full computer scan: engine, transmission, ABS and airbag modules
- Ontario UVIP, lien and ownership check
- Estimated repair costs to help you negotiate
- Written report with photos and a fair price range
- Clear advice: buy, negotiate, or walk away
