Comprehensive Pre/Post-Purchase Vehicle Inspection
Thinking of buying a car? Let us examine it first!
Had your car awhile and want to get an in-depth report? We can help.
Have a classic car that’s been in the family for years? Unsure of how to proceed? We can help.
Our team can guide you through the process of valuation, roadworthiness, sale preparation, and use of your classic vehicle.
Manieri Motorworks offers a comprehensive pre/post purchase inspection and test drive designed to educate the buyer/owner about a specific vehicle: Mechanical condition is one thing, but has the vehicle ever been involved in an accident, been exposed to road salt, flooded, or otherwise mistreated? Does the vehicle’s condition reflect the included documentation? Does the selling party claim original paint but you’re not sure? We can tell you!
