Buying in Berwick
Mobile car inspections, brought to the car in Berwick
Buying a used car in Berwick? Most deals here happen fast, and the car is usually private sales across established streets and dealers near the Princes Highway. Between Princes Highway and High Street, and the surrounding streets of an established south-east suburb with a steady used-car market, lining up a mechanic at the right moment is the hard part — which is exactly where a mobile inspection earns its keep.
Instant Auto Reach sends a qualified inspector straight to the car anywhere in Berwick and nearby Caulfield and Bentleigh, often the same day you call. You get an independent pre-purchase inspection and a clear digital report — so you can negotiate hard or walk away, before any money changes hands.

Buying an EV?
With a used electric car, test the battery first
With a used EV the battery is the value — a car can look perfect and still hide thousands of dollars of lost range. Our EV inspection includes mobile Aviloo-certified battery health testing: an independent state-of-health reading you can take to the negotiation, on top of a full check of the electric drivetrain and charging system. We bring the gear to the car in Berwick.
An Aviloo test turns “looks fine” into a verified number — your strongest card at the negotiating table.

Roadworthy in Victoria
Need a roadworthy certificate?
In Victoria you generally need a current Certificate of Roadworthiness when you sell a vehicle, re-register it, or clear a defect notice — it confirms the car meets the safety standards in the state’s scheme (see the official VicRoads roadworthiness page). If you’re buying or selling around Berwick, our roadworthy inspection service checks the car against those standards so you know whether it’s likely to pass. Remember a roadworthy check is a safety assessment — it isn’t the same as a full pre-purchase inspection, which is why buyers often book both.
