Used car buying support

Why a pre-purchase inspection matters

A used vehicle can look clean while still having mechanical wear, previous body repair, warning indicators or maintenance needs. A pre-purchase inspection is designed to reduce uncertainty by checking major accessible condition areas before you complete the transaction.

Understand visible condition

Review major mechanical, structural, body and functional indicators before purchase.

Identify areas for further checking

If an observation needs specialist diagnosis, you know what to investigate before committing.

Support a more informed decision

Combine the inspection findings with service history, ownership information and seller disclosures.

Review findings and decide whether to proceed, negotiate, seek specialist diagnosis or walk away.

Questions answered

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers about this inspection service, booking and coverage.

What is a pre-purchase car inspection?

A pre-purchase inspection is a condition assessment performed before you commit to buying a vehicle. It is intended to identify observable issues and areas that may need further investigation.

Why should I inspect a used car before buying it?

A professional inspection can reveal condition indicators that may not be obvious during a short test drive or visual viewing, helping you make a more informed purchase decision.

Which UAE areas do you cover?

Black Point lists mobile service coverage in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah.

What are the inspection prices?

Standard-vehicle prices are AED 299 in Dubai, AED 370 in Sharjah, AED 380 in Ajman, AED 390 in Abu Dhabi and Al Ain, and AED 400 in Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah. Luxury vehicles are AED 390 in Dubai and AED 450 in the other listed service areas.

Can the inspection replace a dealer or manufacturer diagnostic?

Can I use the inspection findings to negotiate?

You may use the findings as one input in your buying decision or price discussion, but any negotiation remains between you and the seller.

Need a vehicle checked before you decide?

Send the vehicle location, make/model and preferred inspection time. We will confirm service availability and the applicable price.
