Recommendation for a vehicle inspection on the Gold Coast

[Moragg]

Morning, I'm looking to see if anyone can recommend a company or someone who could help me out with an inspection of a Defender for sale on the Gold Coast. I'm in Adelaide and this would be my first Defender so I probably wouldn't know what to look for anyway.

Thanks

Does RACQ offer an inspection service?

HI! Moragg
Pretty sure RACQ can do inspection on any 4WD but you will have to get it delivered to one of their inspection sites - as it they have to go up on the hoist for thorough underside inspection - I'm sure they will have one on the gold Coast or fairly near
Check RACQ Web site/ or ring them for inspection sites
They checked out a Ford Territory we were thinking of buying here on the Sunshine Coast many years ago and they did a very thorough job of it we did not buy as report was not good
Good Luck!

I've only just seen the vehicle online and it's at an auction and the auction's tomorrow so I don't think it can be taken to an inspection centre. I'm not even sure RACQ will be able to do it before the auction starts.

It's the chassis and engine I want looked at. Would these being rusty (can't zoom in more unfortunately) concern you guys

The bolts being rusty wouldn't surprise me as its common, but I would wonder what else was rusty.
