Memphis' used car market ranges from downtown dealerships to private sellers throughout Shelby County. Our pre-purchase inspections give you an unbiased assessment of a vehicle's condition before you commit.
We go beyond basic code scans with comprehensive testing including compression checks (where accessible), fluid analysis, and undercarriage inspections for flood damage—important in our region with occasional Mississippi River flooding. Our technicians look for signs of accident repair that might not appear on Carfax reports.
For luxury vehicles from local dealers, we verify proper maintenance history and check for deferred maintenance that could cost thousands later. All inspections include a detailed report with repair estimates, so you can negotiate confidently or walk away from bad deals.
