Why buyers in Grant Road inspect before paying
Local reasons a PDI matters in Grant Road.
Broker-led used car purchases
A large share of the used cars inspected here come through local brokers. Our report is deliberately neutral in tone, which makes it useful evidence when you push back on a claimed defect or a hidden one.
Compact and mid-size car focus
Hatchbacks and mid-size sedans dominate this belt. We pay extra attention to kerb-side delivery damage, which is common when a car is brought out and parked in a narrow lane.
