HOW IT WORKS
Book inspection
Booking your used car pre purchase inspection with Motovise is easy. Just fill out our simple form where we ask for your information, the seller’s contact information and some basic details about the vehicle that you need us to inspect. We will coordinate with the seller and schedule an appointment within 24-48 hours to perform our full vehicle inspection. Once the appointment is scheduled we will notify you. Of course you are more than welcome to be present during our inspection, but if you don’t have time or live too far, we’ll take care of everything and notify you when we’re all done.

This is where the magic happens! Our technician will arrive onsite to perform a full vehicle inspection. We drive the vehicle on ramps and check everything from visible structural and mechanical components to scanning your on-board computer systems. If permitted we will take the car for a spin and make sure it runs and drives like a dream. We are trained to be able to provide you with a complete assessment of a vehicle’s overall condition. Typically this part of the process takes about an hour.
What's Included →The report
Once our used car pre purchase inspection is completed, your report will be available to you electronically. All you have to do is click on the link provided to you through email and view it on any computer or mobile device. Our reports are truly one of a kind.

Book InspectionAll the vehicles we inspect are driven on ramps in order for our inspectors to get a better view of the underbody and identify any hidden issues. We will not remove the vehicle’s wheels or any parts during any of our inspections for safety reasons.
