Everything in the Used Car Buyer Toolkit, plus two listing reviews in the Deal Desk.

Post a car you are considering and you get back, within 24 hours:

• What this model breaks — the known failure points for this engine at this age and mileage. A matter of record, not a guess about your particular car.
• What the listing is avoiding — missing engine bay photos, no service history, four new tires on a cheap car. What a listing leaves out is evidence.
• What the repairs cost — realistic ranges for your city, for the jobs that turn a cheap car into an expensive one.
• A target offer — a number to open at, a number to stop at, and a sentence you can say out loud to justify both.

You also get the complete toolkit: quick check, full inspection checklist for petrol, diesel, hybrid and EV, twelve walk-away red flags, repair cost table, offer calculator, negotiation scripts and handover checklist.

Being straight about what this is: a desk review of a listing. Nobody has seen the car, so nothing here tells you what is wrong with it — it tells you what is likely, what to check, and what it would cost if true. Not an inspection, not a valuation, not a guarantee. For a car you are serious about, a mechanic’s inspection is still worth paying for.

One-time payment. Two reviews included. No subscription.
