There's a reason these guys have been rated 5 stars by everyone. They truly value their customers. Sinan was just amazing! He was extremely professional, thorough, honest, passionate, informative and to top it off kind. You won't find a better service elsewhere. They were so helpful that I'm actually writing a review which is a first! Thank you so much Sinan!plus

first off, I' d like to mention that i had used the service twice in one years time. it is of extreme detail and given meticulous attention. i cannot recommend this service any more. the first time I used the inspection service a gentlemen cane to my house to inspecta car i was to purchase and pointed all the defects and faults with the vehicle and it saved me thousands of dollars. This second time, an inspector went in my stead to the dealership and took the same time and effort and came back with an excellent detailed review which was outstanding. by any means use this service and you will absolutely not regret a thing. cortious and professional. five out five.plus

I have used Car Inspected services prior to buying a Honda Civic for my daughter from H-Gregoire and I was amazed by the level of professionalism and knowledge that they have! I mean, he took the time to inspect to smallest details that you would never think about and explained every single test he did to us... The guy knows his stuff and him being a mechanical engineer you could rest assure that you are getting a top notch reliable service! It was worth every penny we spend on his service. We ended up buying the car and with his assessment we got our selves bran new car winter mats and they had to fix couple issues that he pointed... So, we got back our money and got even more than we spent!
Love their service... I highly recommend them for anyone seriously buying a used car.plus

Exactly the service I was looking for! I don't live in Montreal but they booked the appointment with the seller, went on-site for the inspection and sent me a detailed report a couple hours later. It saved me a whole day. Plus, they're very professional and polite. Too good to be true... but true!plus

Fantastic service. Sinan inspected a 2015 Toyota Sienna for me, at very short notice. I live in Toronto, and the car was in Gatineau, Quebec, so there was no practical way I could see it. Car Inspected gave me peace of mind, and also found a couple of minor issues that I got the dealer to resolve. I was very impressed by Sinan's meticulous work: a written report, 233 photos, a detailed 8.5 minute video, and a phone call to talk over his findings.
Of note, the paint thickness assessment for collision repair was very useful, Car Proof reports will only detail reported accidents, and not those that are repaired without involving insurance.
They are very good at what they do, I would have no hesitation in recommending them. Particularly as considering how much a car costs, and how little the inspection costs, why wouldn't you have a pre-purchase inspection done?plus

These guys are amazing at what they do!! Paul was very kind at sharing information on what to look for on my motorcycle search. He was always there to answer questions and available at all times for apts. When it came down to an actual meet..he was unavailable (thanksgiving weekend who would be!! Lol) but he came through with someone else. Olivier was meticulous, as many have said..well worth the money for their knowledge!! A purchase like this without them could end up costing you so much more!!
Thank you so much guys!!plus

Had an appointment with Fabricio. Guy really knows his stuff! I really recommend this service if you are close to buying a car. He gave me good tips, non biased, and I learned about cars in general too. Wish I knew about this service when I had looked at other cars in the summer! They give you a report and then you know which reparations will have to be done later on, so you can go to the garage and ask for specific reparations rather than them "finding" many small ones.

I've read a couple of reviews and they are on point!
Definitely worth the 5 stars.
I had some doubts about a used car I found at a dealership.
Booked and appointment with Sinan (on the same day mind you).
I know nothing about cars.
He literally explained everything he was doing in a professionnal manner.
You are encouraged to ask your questions (you should, the guy knows his stuff).
It helped me make an informed decision.
Very satisfied customer!
I don't even write reviews. Jesus.plus

Amazing experience with Car Inspected. Sinan came to inspect our car and he was incredibly detailed and open to questions. He explained absolutely everything there is to know about a car. He gave us tips for good maintenance and heard all of our concerns and provided a thorough explanation on how to deal with it and pros and cons of it all. If you are good with cars and need an inspection, call them, you will not regret it. If you are not good with cars, definitely call them and prepare to be blown away. Will be calling again for our next inspection for sure. Before you go to a garage and pay for any repair your car "may need", call these guys and you will go for the sure thing. Turns out, my car needed nothing fixed and still now I know everything there is to know about it. This kind of service/knowledge/attention is something you will never get from a garage mechanic, that's for sure.plus

Car Inspected was great in helping me choose a used car. I was able to book an appointment easily and for the next day, a competing inspection service quoted a 2 week delay with a non refundable $50 holding fee. Sinan spent over two hours looking over the car, brought up lots of great points. The inspection was throughout and every step was explained so that i was aware of all the results. Would highly recommend and will use in the future.plus

I can't begin to describe the peace of mind I received after having Sinan inspect my Mercedes GLK. The lengths they go through to ensure you know every single detail about the car you are (potentially) buying is astonishing. This service is actually super affordable, but in my opinion its easily worth x10 the price.plus

Just had Sinan carry out a full inspection on a 2014 BMW 650i Convertible that I was looking to purchase and ship here to Vancouver Island. He did a fantastic job and highlighted both the good and bad points of the car. The inspection covered every aspect of the car and was very professional. Using his services saved me a great deal of time and money on flights etc, also he is far more capable of inspecting a car than me!! His report helped me to decide not to purchase this particular vehicle, however, I will use his services again if another car becomes available in his area.plus

For anyone about to purchase a used vehicle, look no further! This is the place for you. CarInspected will not only investigate the mechanical components of your car to make sure it's in great condition, they will also go meticulously over every inch of the exterior and interior to gather as much information on the car's history and past. Within 20 minutes of arriving at the location, Sinan was able to tell that the trunk and front doors had dents removed and paint redone, very good indication car was in an underground parking garage since those scraps are very common on those specific areas of the car. This cleared up some unanswered questions we had regarding the carproof report. All-in-all, this place is 100% legit. The reviews out here are IMMACULATE for a reason, he does an exceptional job and you'll feel relieved, happy with your buy (or from dodging a bullet) and you'll also know more about your own, new, car!!plus

Have used Sinan 3 times in the past, I didn’t heed his warnings on my previous car and bought it anyway, I should have listened!!
He is friendly, extremely knowledgeable and thorough in his inspections, the last one was a remote inspection, meaning there was a 15 minute video as well as 160 photos!
Great service, highly recommended, I will always use him as long as I have an urge to refresh my cars.
Thanks again, and apologies for not leaving a review previously!plus

Omar from Car Inspected helped me inspect the BMW 328i xDrive that I wanted to purchase. Nothing but the nicest things to say about the service. From the initial phone call to set up an appointment, to meeting the inspector, to the whole inspection process, it was done in an extremely professional manner. Omar went above and beyond, not only did he checked the car throughly, he also gave me a lot of great advice regarding the car, since I am a first-time car owner. Really appreciate the service and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking to get the car inspected.plus

As a first time car buyer, I can't stress enough how this inspection was useful to answer my questions and give me peace of mind about the used car I was about to buy (and ended up buying).
Omar was very attentive and knowledgeable. During the inspection, we uncovered some potential issues with the car and he helped me giving advice on how to solve it with the dealership (on top of some great general advice about owning a car in general).
I'm very happy with the service, would use it again if I was about to buy another car and highly recommend it to anyone thinking about buying an used car.plus

I have used another vehicle inspector when buying used cars in the past and have been very happy with the investment.

Sinan met me at the dealership on very short notice. Very thorough and professional, clearly had a lot of experience and shared his knowledge about the car with me at every step. Dealership had already done an inspection and had noted a few repairs that needed to be done. Sinan's inspection came back with the exact same points that needed to be adressed, and this gave me peace of mind about the original inspection. Highly recommended!plus
Usaid Barlas

So let’s start with the fact that sinnan was on the dot outside the address at the time of the appointment. That was great to see. He immediately pointed out a few replacements/accidents of the car to which the owner confirmed which I had not known about. He was very very thorough with the check even with the silver package. Small details which I would have never checked, such as rear cup holders in the center console etc functioning (slide out). He checked oil and battery and car errors using PROPER equipment which was great.
Overall an amazing job. Highly recommend getting this done for a car you are about to purchase as a small investment will help a long way. I chose the silver package and I think it’s well priced and definitely does the job.plus

Great experience! AJ took the time to inspect the vehicle at the dealership, while walking us through the process. It was not only a very thorough inspection, but was also a great learning experience and a crash course in what's going on under the hood for myself. This was a great investment in giving me some peace of mind before purchasing the vehicle. Worth every penny. Highly recommend this service to all prospective car owners. Thanks for the help, AJ!plus

Car Inspectors are like insurance companies.
You only know how good they are when you have problems.
I would have given Sinan 5/5 stars if I had no issues after taking possession. Reasons for the low score are:
1)After I paid him, it took him longer to respond.
2) I asked him to examine my vehicle because shortly after I purchased my 3 year old Honda, I heard squeaks when going over uneven roads. Just prior to meeting him for the second time, I had to ask if there was an extra charge. He said yes. Why couldn't the fees be mentioned beforehand?
3) When pressed for the rationale for the charge,. he explained the inspection was free but, he needed to charge for mileage
4) I informed him we can meet on the island so I can avoid paying the mileage fee.
5) he then explained he needed to book time on his calendar and his company needs to see revenues when he makes an appointment.
6) I asked him about customer satisfaction and questioned him if he was the owner. He said yes but, he couldn't make any exception
7) He did give me a few pointers over the phone to identify the source of the noise. I tried it but, was unsuccessful.
8) I texted him and haven't heard from him for more than 1 week.
To summarize, initial inspection and all interaction prior to payment was excellent. When problems arise, customer service drops.plus

THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS AND WORTH THE PRICE FOR SERVICE. Car inspected helped me buy my first used car through a dealership. One of my biggest fears was buying a lemon car and Sinan helped me buy the car with a peace of mind. Sinan absolutely knows what he’s doing and loves the job. He explained me each step of his checking process, suggested me fixes, reviewed the dealer and gave me extra info and recommendations for after purchase services. He uncovered the smallest potential issue to the major ones that the dealer had to fix. Due to this amazing service, I’d highly recommend Car inspected to any driver before their car purchase.plus

What a great team! Knowledge-wise and customer care were way above my expectations (which were high based on recommendations I had already seen). Every question and concern I had regarding my car purchase were patiently explained by them.

I have had an amazing experience using the services of Car Inspected. Punctuality, previous knowledge about the model I was buying (Ford Focus 2012), and professionalism delivered just the piece of mind I needed to close the deal. I have driven over 2 000km now and the car is running perfectly. Car Inspected provided me with a lot of information about what I would have to repair first, overall condition of the car so on and so forth. I strongly recommend the service.
Thank you guys!plus

Sinan was there even before the appointed time.
The service and description he gave me for each little component was valuable in easing my mind for the car purchase. Sinan also gave me recommendations on things to be taken care of before picking up the car/make part of a deal with the dealer.
Even as a car enthusiast, i learned a lot through Sinan and his work ethics is outstanding.
Would 200% recommend to everyone before a purchase. Even if you’re an enthusiast and know your stuff.plus

That was an outstanding experience. I live in Toronto and I wanted to buy a car from Montreal. first I decided to go there in person to see and test the car but then I stumbled across Car Inspected. The inspection was thorough in every way imaginable so that I didn't feel necessary to go there in person anymore. This person Sinan is professional, honest and meticulous and covers everything which is necessary to know before buying a used car.plus

Very happy with the experience I had today. He was not only on time he actually got here earlier than expected with a heads up before of course. Super knowledgeable and I really felt confident that the car I wanted was in good shape.
I really like this company because they just do car inspections so there is no conflict of interest, they are no intensive for them to tell you anything that needs to be done or sell you any product. It's only the truth unfiltered.
They came today on a Sunday...you can book online, the experience was great! I cannot recommend them enough!
I really hope this company exist for a long time for my next car purchase. They know their stuff!! I could go on and on but just happy I can support a Canadian business, I hope they grow. Hard work pays off, thanks guys!plus
