The right inspection for the car you're about to buy.
Every inspection is mobile, independent and finished with a clear photo report. Pricing is set by vehicle type because bigger and more complex vehicles take longer to inspect properly.
Green Bean Auto offers ten types of mobile pre-purchase vehicle inspection across Newcastle and Lake Macquarie. Prices are fixed by vehicle type: $250 for small to medium cars, $275 for large 4WD, AWD, commercial and European vehicles, and $325 for luxury, performance and heavy vehicles. EV and hybrid prices are confirmed by phone.
Our core pre-purchase inspection for small to medium cars: hatchbacks, sedans, wagons and compact SUVs. The right choice for most private and dealer purchases.
Large four-wheel drives, utes and AWD SUVs take longer to inspect properly, particularly underneath. We give them the extra time.
Vans, utes and work vehicles live hard lives. Know what you are taking on before it becomes part of your business.
European vehicles can be more complex and more expensive to put right. A careful inspection before purchase can save a lot later.
Electric vehicles have fewer moving parts but their own wear points. Call us with the make and model and we will confirm the price.
A hybrid has both a petrol engine and an electric drive system to consider. Call us with the make and model and we will confirm the price.
Luxury and performance vehicles carry higher repair costs and more complex systems. This inspection allows the extra time they need.
Bigger vehicles, bigger stakes. For trucks, buses, campers and motorhomes over 3.5 tonnes.
Have your own car inspected before the new-car warranty runs out, so any faults can be raised while they may still be covered.
Buying from interstate or out of town? We inspect the vehicle locally and send you the report, so you can decide before you travel or pay for transport.
