Engineers Report inspection

Klavs was fantastic. I know nothing about cars and felt very reassured from his feedback. He was open to me asking questions and gave me some guidance. I booked a basic service to check out a car before I went to look at it and would recommend 100%. Thanks so much Klavs !

Thank you, for a really excellent service carexamer.com - the inspection was carried out on time and the extensive report I received was exactly what I wanted - honest and revealing. I can honestly say that your inspection has saved me thousands of pounds. Big thank you - I will be using your expertise again.

Premium inspection

The process was quick and the report available the same day. I was able to call the inspector to discuss. Glad I did it. Still buying but gave me questions to ask and niggles to fix before I paid.
