Pre-Purchase Inspections by RACQ, RACWA, RACV--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Just a bit of advice for some peace of mind when thinking about purchasing a vehicle. I have just got off the phione with the RACQ and have been discussing pre-purchase vehicle inspections. Here is the web site address of the RACQ http://www.racq.com.au/cps/rde/xchg/...ENA_HTM L.htm What we discussed was the fact that when thinking of purchasing a non-register vehicle it does not have a Safety Certificate with it like registered vehicles. One way to ensure you don't take away a lemon is to organise a Master Inspection through the RACQ for about $220 for members $240 for reciprocle members like the RACWA or RACV interstate $290 for non-members The vehicle would need to be dropped off at a RACQ Vehicle Inspection Centre for the entire day 7.30am - 5.00pm where it would undergo a Master Check which means being put up on a hoist Air Conditioner Body and Interior Condition Brakes with all wheels and drums removed Cooling System Electrical Engine and visible engine components Exhaust Road Test minimum of 8 km Steering Suspension Tyres Under body Just some information that people did not know about.
