Choose the checks you need
Use these inspection budgets to plan your yearly check. We confirm the right option and final total for your car before the appointment.
Mobile inspections are typically AED 300–500, with the location and included checks confirmed in advance. These are guide ranges for different inspection options, not amounts to add together.
The quotation will state VAT treatment, any travel charge and any separately agreed testing. Repairs, parts and servicing are not included in an inspection-only price. Compare the full inspection price guide if you need a different type of check.
The condition review
The annual inspection is built around your car, its history and the concerns you raise. The exact checks and access are agreed before work starts.
Visible tread and sidewall condition, uneven wear, wheel damage, brake warnings and accessible braking components. Wear that needs measurement is identified for the next check.
Accessible oil or coolant leaks, fluid condition, hoses, belts where fitted, abnormal noises and operating concerns. An internal engine test is separate.
Visible leaks, damaged boots, uneven ride height and steering or suspension concerns. Lift access and any further measurements are agreed in advance.
Starting behaviour, accessible battery connections, warning lamps and selected electrical functions. Diagnostic scanning is included only when listed in your quotation.
Exterior lights, wipers, washers, mirrors, seat belts and selected cabin controls. We record anything that cannot be operated or accessed.
Visible leaks and accessible mounting or underbody concerns. Any road test depends on the agreed checks, permission and the vehicle’s condition.
After the inspection
The useful result is knowing which findings deserve action. Your agreed inspection findings separate current concerns from routine maintenance and items that need another test.
The inspection records accessible condition at the time. Concealed faults and future component life cannot be guaranteed.
Report format and included photographs or scan information are confirmed with your booking.
Make the yearly check useful
Bring the previous report if you have one. It helps the inspector focus on new concerns and check what happened after earlier recommendations.
Mention a longer commute, extended storage or a change in how the car is used. The inspection can then focus on the questions that matter now.
Note when tyres were replaced and whether pulling, vibration or uneven wear has appeared since. Current observations can be compared with that history.
Point out recurring fluid loss, warning lights or noises, including when they occur. A previous repair does not automatically explain a new symptom.
Relevant invoices help identify what was replaced or adjusted. Previous recommendations can be followed up instead of simply repeated.
Arrange the appointment
Choose a convenient annual point that leaves time to act on the findings. Keep following the car’s service schedule between inspections.
Book sooner if a new problem appears. Warning lights, fluid loss, overheating or changes in braking and steering should be assessed when they happen. If the car may be unsafe, arrange assistance instead of driving it to an appointment.
Start with the make, model, year and location. Add any concern and your preferred date. Mileage, previous reports and repair invoices are helpful when available.
Request an inspection appointmentA workshop appointment is useful when the agreed checks need controlled access or a lift. Call before travelling to confirm the meeting point and available appointment.
A mobile visit needs permission, safe space and suitable working conditions. Tell us about restricted parking or a car that does not start. Checks requiring equipment unavailable at the location may need a workshop visit.
The team confirms the checks, total price and appointment window before your booking is final.
Before you book
No. This is a private yearly condition check. It does not renew registration or issue an RTA certificate. If renewal preparation is your main purpose, see our registration renewal inspection.
The inspection records condition and maintenance priorities. Oil changes, replacement parts, repairs and specialist tests are separate unless your quotation expressly includes them. Keep following the vehicle’s service schedule.
It may reveal stored information or related physical clues, but a fault that is absent during the appointment may need further testing. Bring a short description or video of when it occurs and mention any recent repairs.
Ask for the appointment window when the checks for your car are confirmed. A basic review, a broader inspection with underbody access and a visit involving extra diagnosis require different amounts of time.
Tell us the exact model and year before booking so we can confirm the available checks. High-voltage work, battery-capacity testing and manufacturer-specific reports are not automatically part of an annual inspection.
