SOURCE & INSPECT

WE HELP YOU FIND IT. INSPECT IT. AND BUY IT RIGHT.

Finding the right used vehicle can take hours of searching, phone calls, travelling and negotiating — and even then, it can be difficult to know whether you're making the right decision.

Southside Source & Inspect takes care of the process from the search through to the purchase.

We help identify suitable vehicles, screen listings and sellers, assess market value, inspect the strongest candidates and negotiate the purchase on your behalf.

Professional vehicle buying experience working for you.

MORE THAN A PRE-PURCHASE INSPECTION

A pre-purchase inspection is perfect when you've already found the vehicle you want assessed.

Source & Inspect is for buyers who want help finding the right vehicle in the first place, and for the right price.

Instead of spending weekends driving between dealerships and private sellers, we help narrow the market down before an inspection is ever booked.

We assess each potential vehicle from both a mechanical and professional buying perspective, helping eliminate poor candidates early and focusing your time and money on vehicles genuinely worth pursuing.

HOW SOURCE & INSPECT WORKS

1. TELL US WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR

We start by understanding exactly what you need.

We'll discuss your:

• Budget

• Preferred makes and models

• Intended use

• Kilometre preferences

• Age requirements

• Must-have features

• Deal-breakers

• Location and purchasing timeframe

You don't necessarily need to know exactly which vehicle you want.

If you're deciding between several models, we can help narrow the options based on your requirements and budget.

2. WE SEARCH & SCREEN THE MARKET

We search suitable vehicles advertised through dealerships and private sellers and assess which ones are genuinely worth pursuing.

Before travelling to inspect a vehicle, we can review:

• Asking price

• Market value

• Vehicle history

• Seller information

• Advertisement details

• Service history where available

• Photos and disclosed condition

• Known concerns with the particular make and model

The aim is simple:

Avoid wasting inspections on vehicles that should have been eliminated before we arrived.

4. WE HELP YOU SECURE THE RIGHT DEAL

Finding a good vehicle is only part of the process.

Once we've identified a vehicle worth purchasing, we use the inspection findings, vehicle condition, current market value and our professional buying experience to assist with negotiating the purchase.

Mechanical faults, upcoming maintenance, tyre or brake wear, cosmetic condition and market pricing can all influence what a vehicle is genuinely worth.

You make the final purchasing decision.

Our role is to make sure you're making it with the right information behind you.

3. WE INSPECT THE STRONGEST CANDIDATES

Once we've identified a vehicle worth pursuing, we arrange a comprehensive Southside pre-purchase inspection at the seller's location.

The vehicle is assessed mechanically, structurally and from an overall purchasing perspective.

If the first vehicle doesn't meet our standards, we walk away and continue the search.

Your Source & Inspect package includes up to two comprehensive inspections if required, giving us the flexibility to reject a poor vehicle and move onto a stronger option.
