Buying a used car is exciting — and risky. The Handsome Mechanic gives you an independent, honest mechanical report so you can buy with confidence (or walk away from a lemon and save thousands). Inspections are carried out at our Mount Druitt workshop, where the car goes up on the hoist and onto our diagnostic equipment for a proper, thorough check.
What’s Included
- Full mechanical inspection — engine, transmission, drivetrain
- Brake, suspension, steering, and tyre condition
- Electrical scan for stored fault codes across all modules
- Body, panel, and paint check for accident damage
- Service history and odometer verification
- Road test for noise, vibration, gear behaviour, and brake feel
- Written report you can use to negotiate — or walk away
Our Process
- Book the vehicle in and arrange for it to be brought to our Mount Druitt workshop.
- We put the car on the hoist for a full underbody check and run scan-tool diagnostics — the kind of thorough inspection only a proper workshop allows.
- You receive a detailed written report with photos, delivered the same day.
- We follow up with a quick phone call so you can ask questions before you commit.
Why at the workshop? Inspecting on a hoist with workshop diagnostic gear catches issues a roadside or driveway check simply can’t — worn suspension, hidden rust, fluid leaks, and brake wear are all far easier to spot from underneath.
