Lexus · Pre-Purchase Inspection
Independent 150-point check before you buy a used car in Dubai. Priced per Lexus model, not per brand.
What follows is what pre-purchase inspection on a Lexus specifically involves, what it costs, and what we check while the car is with us.
Lexus is a Japanese make, and Lexus cabins are heavily loaded with electronics that draw current parked, so a 12V battery here has a harder life than the mileage suggests. For a pre-purchase inspection specifically that means we price the parts to the model rather than the badge, and we check the items that go alongside it on this range instead of quoting a flat figure and finding out later.
The vehicle database lists 23 Lexus models, and parts, labour time and price all move between them. Pick yours from the list below for the detail that applies to your car rather than to the range.
Every visit includes a battery health test — not a voltage reading, a load test — because a Lexus in Dubai is on a two-to-three year battery cycle and the cheapest time to find a failing one is while somebody is already looking at the car. On the start-stop models in this range that also means checking whether the battery has been registered, because an unregistered replacement is being charged to the wrong profile.
Factory paint is a consistent thickness within a narrow band. A repaired panel reads two or three times that, and a filled one reads off the scale. A gauge sweep takes ten minutes and finds accident repair that a good body shop made invisible. It is the single most informative test on a used car in this market.
About 90 minutes for the inspection itself, and you get the written report with photographs the same day.
Yes for most of the checks. A full underbody and chassis inspection needs a lift, so if the seller will release the car for an hour we would rather do it properly at the workshop.
There is no pass or fail — there is a report of what the car is and what it will need. What you do with that is your decision, and we will price the work so you know the real number.
Call, or send your location on WhatsApp. We will tell you the price before we set off.
