Klavs demonstrated good experience in his inspection. He was clear and had deep knowledge of car maintenance and repair. I would strongly recommend his services

Have had Klavs to inspect 2 cars I was looking to buy. He has been very punctual and communicative and got the report to me within a couple of hours. No hesitation in recommending him.

10 out of 10 this is the best inspection I have had to date, informative and covered all aspects of the car. Glad I got it inspected as I would have bought a lemon. I had an inspection two months ago from the AA which was appalling they never picked up on minor faults and when questioned about it they just said it was an old car and to be expected, would have helped if it drove in a straight line! Klavs inspected an Evo 8 I was looking to buy, he provided a written report and a video walk around showing all the imperfections, even a paint thickness check showing filler has been used on the panels. I can not rate them enough first class and I will be using them again on my next purchase. Don't waste your money on the AA or similar you don't get half the report you will get from CarExamer

The technical inspection by Klavs Simkus was very good. His attitude after that was appalling. He was rude, unreliable, arrogant and could not be bothered to speak to his paying client for hours after the inspection - unlike the AA who were very reliable immediately after the inspection they did.
