Vehicle Inspections

At Armstrong Creek Motors we inspect cars for buyers, owners and businesses across Geelong. A pre-purchase inspection tells you what a used car really needs before you hand over the money, and a comprehensive inspection gives you a clear picture of your own car's condition. If you're selling or re-registering a car in Victoria, you need a Roadworthy Certificate instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you inspect cars before purchase?

Yes. A pre-purchase inspection checks the engine, brakes, suspension, tyres, body and electronics of a used car before you buy, so you know about any problems before you hand over the money.

What happens if the inspection finds a problem?

We explain what we found, show you where possible, and give you a clear recommendation. We will not carry out extra work without your approval.
