VOLVO XC60 R-DESIGN NAV D4 AUTO

Standard inspection

Klavs inspected the vehicle I am now buying, as it is too far away for me to inspect myself, although I wouldn't have a clue what to look out for myself anyway. The inspection results were very informative and detailed, which really helped me make the decision to purchase the car, as well as be aware of any issues. The seller has since replaced the front brake pads and disks as they were very worn out and an advisory on Klavs report. He also phoned me to make sure everything was ok, and we discussed some of the details a little bit more. This service is really good and I will recommend it to any friend who is in the process of buying a used car.

This was the first time I've used a service like this and I was really impressed. A very thorough inspection and was carried out within 48 hrs of me purchasing the check. Klavs was really professional and knowledgeable, and I was confident to then purchase the car, knowing what might need to be done in the future. Recommended!

Very helpful with great advice, Klavs even asked to be updated regarding an issue I needed to speak to Nissan about. Very Good!

BMW 330I M SPORT

Engineers Report inspection

Klavs was very thorough and also very frank about the vehicles condition (BMW E90 330i msport manual). Highlighting areas that may need work sooner rather than later and also what was good about the car for the age and mileage. I ended up buying the car and was very pleased.
