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

A pre-purchase inspection done by an experienced mechanic on the Jaguar 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 Jaguar 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 Jaguar?

If you book a pre-purchase inspection with ClickMechanic, a vetted mechanic who carries out inspections on Jaguar 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 Jaguar, 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 Jaguar 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 Jaguar pre-purchase inspection come with a warranty?

Our pre-purchase inspections of used Jaguar vehicles do not come with a warranty. The main purpose of inspecting a used Jaguar 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 Jaguar?

Following your used Jaguar car inspection, if you decided to purchase the Jaguar 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.

“Hamza was very very good and communication called me before he arrived and called me when he’s finished and then had a conversation later on after he finished another job about all the things you’ve done on the car in the pre-inspection followed by a report that was available on the diagnostics report that emailed to me and photos that you sent on WhatsApp to me can’t recommend him enough”
