CarAssure is an Australian company specialising in pre-purchase vehicle inspections that travels to the car's location, inspects it on-site and delivers a detailed digital report the same day, together with the PPSR certificate. Its stated coverage area includes Brisbane, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast in Queensland, and the company presents itself as a provider of mobile inspections in those areas.

Inspection packages for combustion-engine cars

The firm structures its offering into three tiers. The Basic package, aimed at those seeking a quick and affordable check, includes an assessment of overall performance, engine condition, tyres and wheels, verification of vehicle details (VIN, registration and odometer) and a short road test of approximately 1 to 3 km. The Standard package, the most requested according to the company, adds a digital report with more than 50 photographs, inspection of the engine, tyres, wheels, suspension, steering and major mechanical components, exterior and interior inspection, diagnostic scan for fault codes, an extended road test of 5 to 7 km, PPSR certificate, 12 V battery health test and an underside inspection for leaks, damage and corrosion where access allows.

The Premium package incorporates all of the above and adds a report with more than 70 photographs, full paint thickness measurement to detect repairs and repainting, an extended road test in urban conditions, advanced diagnostic scan with live data analysis, a specific inspection for 4x4, ute or van (transmission, transfer case, differential and underbody condition), hybrid system assessment, luxury vehicle inspection (advanced electronics, suspension, comfort and premium interior), PPSR certificate, market valuation range and a post-inspection phone consultation with the inspector. It also offers a video walkthrough of the vehicle upon request.

It also has add-ons for the packages: hybrid check, specific inspection for 4x4, ute or van, and full paint depth assessment or video walkthrough.

Coverage and operation

The service is mobile: the inspector goes to the seller and carries out the inspection on-site. The company states that reports are delivered the same day and that booking can be made with a deposit, paying the remainder later. Its stated presence is concentrated in Brisbane, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast, and it also serves surrounding suburbs in Queensland.
