I engaged Trafalgar Inspections while car shopping recently since I live outside of Auckland, and through the process it felt like they were on my side. The car had some issues which the mechanic was happy to explain and clarify, and I was able to negotiate a price with the dealer accordingly. Unfortunately the dealer ended up selling the vehicle to another buyer knowing there were issues with it - Trafalgar Inspections is aware and told me they have made note of the dealer’s dodgy practice for reference with future customers. In an industry where dealers’ number one objective is to make money, having an experienced mechanic truly on your side creates confidence - I’d recommend Trafalgar Inspections to anyone looking to buy a car in Auckland.

We used the mobile inspection service as backpackers who were looking at a campervan to travel with, his inspection was super detailed and the information given to us was honest and clear. We are very happy with the service we got

Amazing service! Deserving of more than 5 stars if that was possible. Booked the first inspection with them and there quickly got back to me with the concerns of the car. Booked another inspection for a different car, He wasn’t able to get it done because the person sold the car (the car owner was unreachable every-time Gancen and my self tried to call them). After this car, Gancen recommended a car dealership and still also inspected the car inside and out. Words can not express my gratitude! Thank you so much! Most definitely recommend!

Awesome service, professional with a thorough detailed inspection, followed up with a one on one discussion about the vehicle concerned, along with an email and photos. Gancen went out of his way to do a short notice inspection for us as we were from out of Auckland, rescheduled other jobs to accommodate our time frame. Highly recommend their services,

I am so grateful and relieved! I got two reports done on two cars at different dealers. The first car was for sale for 18k and I had asked the dealer (who has been in business a long time and appeared very reliable) if there had been any damage, to which he said no, only cosmetic painting. The Trafalgar inspection revealed there was welding repair to the rear of the car, indicating an accident. I cancelled my purchase and was saved from being fleeced. On the second vehicle, a number of mechanical issues were noted, that allowed me to make an informed decision. The reports were detailed but also easy to understand and the service was extremely fast.Highly recommended. Even if your dealer says the car has passed border inspecting, do a report with Traflagar....and avoid nasty, expensive mistakes.
