A clean report is a start, not the finish. We check recurring repairs, lemon-law whispers, fleet usage patterns, and regional corrosion trends. Service intervals reveal habits; parts quality reveals priorities. When records are thin, we budget preventive maintenance transparently. Insight beats luck, and meticulous vetting protects both your wallet and your long-term peace of mind.
We structure drives to expose behavior: expansion joints for damping, tight ramps for balance, slow-speed turns for axle noises, parking maneuvers for steering quirks. Climate controls, infotainment responsiveness, and driver aids are evaluated calmly. Notes become comparisons, not impressions. We want predictable feedback, well-mannered braking, and a platform ready for the upgrades you envision.
A trusted third-party inspection catches what enthusiasm might miss. We align findings with manufacturer campaigns, extended coverage options, and component compatibility. When protection makes sense, we target policies that respect modifications. You get clarity on risks, realistic maintenance projections, and a precise plan for upgrades that complement rather than complicate your long-term ownership experience.
