Standalone Services FOR BUYERS
Found a car you’re interested in - but want to be certain it’s everything it claims to be? Whether you just need verification or full escrow protection, we make private car purchases safe and transparent.
Essential Check-Over
Before you hand over a cent, we uncover everything the seller won’t tell you.
Most people buy cars based on trust and gut feeling. We buy based on facts and verification. This is a full forensic background check on both the car and the person selling it.
We deliver:
-
True market value analysis — backed by real sale data, not inflated asking prices
-
Historical comparison across similar vehicles — so you know whether you’re getting a bargain or being overcharged
-
PPSR report — instantly flags finance, theft or write-off history
-
Ownership verification — we match legal ID, banking details and registration papers
-
VicRoads database confirmation (if in VIC) — because screenshots and stories don’t count as proof
+$110 for company-owned vehicles
Company vehicles are where most scams happen. We don’t take their word for it — we access ASIC records, identify the real director, and make sure funds go to the correct business entity. Zero loopholes.
Secure Escrow Purchase
What if I pay — and the seller disappears?
With us, that’s impossible.
This is the safest way to buy a car privately in Australia. Here’s how it works:
-
The vehicle is delivered to our office — before payment is released.
-
We perform the full Essential Check-Over (included).
-
Once everything is confirmed, we physically escort the seller to the bank and transfer funds using a non-reversible Telegraphic Transfer — not some “pending” transfer that can be recalled.
-
We hold the car and keys until ownership is officially transferred.
-
All paperwork — done by us.
Mechanical Inspection
Looks good in photos? Great. Now let’s see how it looks under the hood.
-
Full on-hoist physical inspection
-
Mechanical and diagnostic reporting supplied
+ $110 Porsche Over-Rev Report
Full DME extraction with exact seconds / minutes / hours spent in each rev range — we reveal how hard the car has been driven.
Accident / Body Inspection
“It’s never been in an accident.” — We don’t take that answer at face value.
-
Paint-thickness reading across every panel — reveals hidden repairs and resprays
-
Engine bay & structural assessment
-
You receive a full report with hard numbers — not guesses
Interstate Transportation
Bought the right car but it’s stuck across the country?
Give us the suburb and postcode — we’ll arrange insured transport at trade pricing, delivered straight to your driveway.
Assistance with Registration
Purchased an unregistered car locally or from interstate? We handle the entire registration process for you — booking and attending the VicRoads appointment, obtaining the RWC, and preparing all paperwork.
We’ll collect your car and take it through the process, saving you valuable time and the need to take time off work.
The fee covers our labour only and excludes external costs such as the VicRoads appointment fee, RWC, stamp duty, number plates, and registration.
