While our RTA test signifies the bare minimum standards of the vehicle for legal access to the road, our Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) goes much deeper into the long-term value and mechanical integrity of the vehicle.

As per RTA Dubai guidelines, the mandatory technical inspection is focused on roadworthiness and safety standards (RTA File No. 1.1). However, experts suggest a comprehensive Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) to identify latent mechanical issues not covered by the standard test
This service is respectfully focused on your time. Instead of battling traffic to reach a workshop, certified technicians travel anywhere in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and the Northern Emirates to carry out a 360-degree inspection wherever the car is located.
We take the headache out of scheduling directly with the seller, leaving you free to get on with your day.
Data shows that a professional PPI will help buyers negotiate an average of AED 5,000 to AED 12,000 off the asking price by identifying upcoming maintenance needs.
Immediately assess the condition of the vehicle during a transparent walk-through on-site.
A pre-purchase inspection (PPI) becomes absolutely crucial, especially in a market like the UAE, where high-value purchases are made. Our inspectors are veterans of the Gulf auto market, specialized in problems unique to the region.
We give you a technical report on over 600+ points so that you know precisely what you're going in for.
In the specialized UAE automotive market, a surface-level check is not enough. Our inspectors—veterans of the Gulf automotive industry—are qualified to verify "GCC Specifications" and identify the subtle signs of regional wear and tear.
The Forensic Breakdown:
We go beyond a visual check. Using ultrasonic gauges that conform to ISO 2808, we conduct precision paint-thickness mapping. This identifies non-factory repairs or hidden structural welds that indicate a past collision history.
Every audit includes a full electronic system scan. We pull data directly from the ECU to identify "Permanent DTCs" (Diagnostic Trouble Codes)—hidden fault codes that don't trigger a dashboard light but signal imminent engine or transmission failure.
UAE heat frequently exceeds 45°C, placing extreme stress on cooling loops. Following SAE J1542 guidelines for thermal cycle durability, we test your car's radiators, hoses, and AC pull-down efficiency to ensure it can withstand the desert climate without overheating.
An exhaustive review of the engine, transmission, and drivetrain. We check fluid viscosity and contamination, as extreme heat can accelerate oil degradation and lead to premature mechanical fatigue.
Market Insight: Industry data from Mordor Intelligence reveals that the UAE used car market is projected to grow to over $35 billion by 2030. However, with nearly 20% of pre-owned vehicles potentially carrying undisclosed histories or odometer fraud, a professional PPI is your only guarantee of a fair deal.
