Very comprehensive and informative assessment.
Edd took the time to explain things clearly and in detail and was able to help me make an informed decision as to whether to continue with the purchase of the vehicle. He articulated the pros and cons for the major items requiring repair work.

Shame the scores are only 5 stars as Edd Hunt went above what I expected and I received a very comprehensive report and telephone follow up from him. He took the time to contact me prior to the inspection and asked if there were any particular concerns I may have about the vehicle.
I did have the full inspection and I’m so glad I did, Edd was able to uncover numerous issues and provided photographic evidence that made me realise that the vehicle I was looking to purchase wasn’t as great as it appeared. I was able to cost the repairs required that I used to offer a lower price to the seller, they declined, but I’m not disappointed just happy I haven’t purchased a lemon!.

As usual Ed did a top-notch pre inspection and made sure we avoided buying a dodgy car. Rang me straight after then photos and full report within the hour. Highly recommend.

Edward was superb. Not only in his assessment of the vehicle that he inspected but also his advice in navigating the less than helpful click mechanic website.

Edd was outstanding in every respect, and his report and face-to-face discussion helped me to make a decision about the purchase - I decided not to buy and probably saved quite a bit of money and bother down the line. A thoroughly good service.

Edd was brilliant gave a full and thorough report and then followed up with a phone call that explained everything in terms I could understand giving me the confidence to approach the garage I was buying a car from to get them to ensure the car was the best it could be before I committed. Edd went over and above and I’m so pleased I got the pre sale inspection report. Thank you!
