I am very happy with the work Edward carried out. I booked a premium car inspection and thanks to that he could spot 2 major problems in a car that I was about to buy and his work saved me a lot of money . Edward was efficient and kept me informed of everything , explaining and answering my questions. Also offered advice on the type of cars that could suit me , suggesting me some brands and models. The inspection was very thorough , i would recommend it and would repeat in the future in my next car inspections.
