What is a pre-purchase car inspection?

A pre-purchase car inspection is a comprehensive evaluation of a vehicle's condition performed by a professional inspector before purchase. It helps identify any existing or potential issues that could affect the vehicle's value or safety.

How long does it take to get an inspection scheduled and completed?
