    Car Mechanical Check in NSW?

    MOVED TO MKV FORUM

    Hi Guys,

    I live in Perth but am looking at a MKV GTI in NSW.

    In Perth we have the RAC who can check vehicles, but who would you recommend to perform a pre-sale check in NSW? Just the local version of RAC, or is there someone you would specifically recommend who has a great knowledge of VW?

    If so, any ideas as to the cost of such a check..

    Thanks in advance..

    There is NRMA who do a pretty standard check.

    Where abouts is the car located in Sydney. From what I have heard there are a few good mechanics round Sydney who may be able to help you out.

      NRMA stopped the vehicle inspection service a while (maybe up to 2yrs) ago and now offer it via Motorserve.

      Instead of that I used Seb at Girraween. If you could get the seller to get a check at his workshop, then pay for it yourself, that's one option. What's his forum username?

      drive.com.au has a nice looking, upgraded Jetta TFSI under $20k (w. 90k on the clock), whose owner works in the west of Sydney - might be an option if you don't get that GTI.
      Bizi's Jetta TDI: Blue Graphite w. factory leather & tint, plus + Enkei Racing NT03+M + Yokohama S Drive 18s, Koni FSD, Neuspeed coils, GTI RSB + brakes, InPro mirrors, VW navi, Modshack. Come for a drive through the twisties on Saturdaze.

          The outcome

          Hi Guys,

          Thanks for the updates. Got a company called Sydney Vehicle Check to check the car out.

          A couple of issues, so ended up giving it a miss, but picked one up from QLD.



          Cheers

          Adam
