Demo and pool vehicle risk
In an industrial belt, showroom display and pool cars often carry genuine usage before delivery. We test wear consistency against the odometer, which is how a disguised high-mileage car gets caught.
Taloja is an industrial township in MIDC with a large and growing residential catchment. Vehicle volumes here are high, and the industrial setting introduces a specific risk: vehicles that have been used as pool, demo or staff vehicles before retail delivery.
Every Taloja inspection runs the same 80+ point checklist across 11 sections, with photo evidence for every finding and a report on WhatsApp and email within 15 minutes. Inspection starts at ₹999, with no travel charge.
We travel to the vehicle, wherever it is in Taloja. Common inspection points include dealer yards, society parking, private homes and stockyards.
