Garage in Uxbridge, 33 years of experience

I’ve been in the motor trade for 33 years and have worked for Toyota main dealers before spending 18 years working out on the roadside for both the AA and RAC. I have worked for Tesla and VW

“The work Stuart carried out was satisfying. The reason that I gave 4 star to the quality is that while test- driving the car he wasn't careful enough. The car's bottom hit the kerb as one tyre was on the road the other was outside of the road. (The road was blocked by a trcuk)

I gave 4 star to the comunication as he unnecessarily prolonged the discussion with the seller. Vehicle diagnostic device was saying there is cruise control, seller was saying there isn't. There should be a 3rd party to verify it as the car was a base model.(manual rear windows). I later called Toyota headquarter, gave number plate to them. They also said there is no cruise control on that car.”

Frequently asked questions about Toyota pre-purchase inspections

Read our answers to questions about pre-purchase inspection costs, symptoms and more.

I plan to buy a used Toyota - do I need a pre-purchase inspection?

A pre-purchase inspection done by an experienced mechanic on the Toyota you are considering buying spares you the headache and saves the time of checking the vehicle over yourself. The mechanics on our network know what signs to lookout for, potentially helping you avoid future large repair bills.

We have a comprehensive checklist that the mechanic goes through, and they will provide you with a detailed email report and a follow-up call describing the state of the vehicle (if applicable).

Customers value the pre-purchase inspection report they receive from their mechanics. The report will help you make a decision and possibly assist with negotiating price.

A Premium pre-purchase inspection is one of the most popular choices amongst ClickMechanic customers when it comes to checking a used Toyota car before the sale. We currently have 100s of mechanics doing pre-purchase inspections across the ClickMechanic network.

What happens during a pre-purchase inspection on Toyota?

If you book a pre-purchase inspection with ClickMechanic, a vetted mechanic who carries out inspections on Toyota will inspect the car you intend to purchase. Depending on the level of inspection booked (basic, standard or premium), the mechanic will spend up to 3 hours assessing the condition of the vehicle.

When inspecting a used Toyota, mechanics check the interior, lights, fluid levels, brakes and suspension, chassis and car underside (subject to service level booked). All our inspection checklists include a road test to examine the condition of important safety features such as the steering and braking, and give a clear idea whether the vehicle is roadworthy.

I have booked a used Toyota inspection - do I have to be present?

No, there is no need for you to be present during the inspection. Our pre-purchase inspection service is popular with customers wanting to have a professional assessment of a used car they are purchasing e.g. while they are abroad.

You will receive a report about the condition of the car after the inspection is complete and if you wish you will be able to discuss with the mechanic over the phone afterwards (depending on level of service booked).

Does the Toyota pre-purchase inspection come with a warranty?

Our pre-purchase inspections of used Toyota vehicles do not come with a warranty. The main purpose of inspecting a used Toyota before the sale is to give you an honest and true reflection of the state of the vehicle at the time of inspection.

Can I book a follow up appointment for my Toyota?

Following your used Toyota car inspection, if you decided to purchase the Toyota we recommend having it serviced by one of the mechanics on our network. That way you can ensure you are off to a good start and your car is ready for your future journeys together.

If there is any issues that needs fixing speak to the mechanic who will do the inspection to get a quote and book a follow up through ClickMechanic.
