Frequently asked questions
Can I bring any car for a pre-purchase inspection?
Yes — any make or model, from any seller or dealership. We're completely independent. Bring the car to us or arrange for us to inspect it at an agreed location.
Do you offer used car inspection in Dubai before I buy?
Yes. This service is built for buyers who need a car inspection before buying: diagnostic scan, mechanical check, AC test, accident indicators, tyre/brake checks, and a clear written summary before payment.
Do you offer car inspection near me in Dubai?
Yes. Buyers from across Dubai can bring a used car to Active Auto for an independent pre-purchase inspection. Use Google Maps for live directions to the workshop in Al Quoz Industrial Area 4.
Do you provide a vehicle inspection service before buying a used car?
Yes. Our vehicle inspection service is designed for used-car buyers who need a diagnostic scan, mechanical check, visible accident indicators, AC test, and a clear buy, negotiate, or walk away summary.
Can you inspect a car the same day?
Often yes, depending on workshop load, seller availability, and when the vehicle can reach us. WhatsApp the car details, listing link, and seller location so we can advise the fastest route.
Is this only for buying a car?
No. The same inspection is useful if you want a general vehicle condition check, but the report is designed especially for used-car buyers who need a clear decision before paying.
How long does a pre-purchase inspection take?
Allow 1–2 hours for a thorough inspection. We won't rush it.
What should I send before booking an inspection?
Send the car make, model, year, mileage, listing link if available, seller location, and any concerns you already noticed. If there are dashboard warning lights or accident claims, mention those too.
What if the seller won't allow an inspection?
That's a significant red flag. Any legitimate seller should be comfortable with an independent mechanical check. Reluctance to allow inspection is worth taking seriously.
Can you detect if a car has been in an accident?
We look for indicators — inconsistent paint thickness, misaligned panels, repainted sections, and structural repair signs. We can't guarantee detection of every past repair, but we find what's there to find.
How much does a pre-purchase inspection cost?
Contact us for the current rate. The cost is typically far less than the repair bills from an undisclosed problem on a car you've already bought.
