He was very friendly and explained everything to me and gave good advice for following up and keeping an eye on things. I think he did the pre-inspection well and really good at getting back to me and talking issues and questions through with me!

Edward's pre-purchase inspection service was absolutely impeccable. Very knowledgeable, friendly and keen to assist. He took the time and effort to help with all my follow-up questions and I never felt like I overstayed my welcome. He provided information on the best/ worst case scenarios re the issues with the car and potential cost of maintenance which was incredibly helpful as a first-time buyer
