INSPECTION FRAMEWORK
Created over the years by our scouts and pro-clients
Over the years we came up with a precise framework for buying a Defender. We inspect 40 spots and each spot receives a numerical value on a scale from 1 to 5. After inspection we are able to give you a good overview of the state in which the vehicle is.
The walk-around starts by looking at the car as a whole, to see if anything seems weird, mismatched or warped. Then we follow with detailed search for body and frame corrosion, inspection of chassis, vin number and interior followed by inspection of engine and finally a test drive. During test drive we are inspecting throttle response, gearboxes, high speed handling, rattling and wobbling all in different speeds.
SUCCESS RATE
We are able to uncover most of the issues*
*calculated from all the vehicles we handled – rate of issues we uncovered vs issues that showed up over time or during restoration
