NOTE: a pre purchase inspection is to let you know the "current" condition of the vehicle being inspected. Cars Mobile Mechanics holds no responsibility of vehicles condition at a later time. Cars Mobile Mechanics cannot comment on vehicle valuation or advise whether you should or shouldn't purchase the vehicle. A pre purchase inspection is there to help you make the decision. If the vehicle is unroadworthy it will be stated on invoice/report & will not be road tested
