I honestly can't recommend Edd enough. Edd has been fantastic to deal with, keeping in touch with me through the whole process. Edd obviously loves his job and is very experienced. He completes more checks than are on the ClickMechanic check list and has provided the most comprehensive report I have received. I had over 40 photos of the car and nearly a page of notes on DTC checks and explaining notes made on the required checklist.
Edd kept in touch with timings throughout the day and gave me time to read the report before we chatted on the phone together about all the points.
I was worried about spending another lump of money on a report but that money has saved me from buying a car that had significant hidden engine and gearbox issues and more.
Edd stated that he does this work because of a friend's past experience buying a death trap of a car. It's obvious he really cares and wants to give you great service.
Thank you Edd for your work, honesty and professionalism, I would absolutely use you again and recommend to anyone. Perfect, 5 star!

It really doesn’t get better than this! Edd’s professional experience and service provided went above and beyond. With extra checks conducted in my case, I was able to make a well-informed decision following my Pre Inspection. This provided me with the reassurance based on evidence that I needed. I would highly recommend Edd and without doubt, I will be requesting him on my next expensive purchase on a potential camper conversion.
Again, very many thanks Edd.
