A Land Rover specialist comes to the dealer or seller. Anthony Lapadula dispatches the right Master Certified Technician for your car.
Range Rovers and Land Rovers depreciate quickly, which makes a used one tempting — and repair costs on these vehicles are exactly why they depreciate. Air suspension, cooling components and electronics are the usual suspects. Inspect First sends a Land Rover specialist to the car anywhere in South Florida so you know which kind of used Range Rover you're looking at.
What does a Land Rover pre-purchase inspection check?
What our Land Rover specialist checks on every inspection:
Full module scan
Every module is scanned — engine, transmission, air suspension, terrain systems, infotainment and body electronics.
Recently cleared codes
The specialist checks for signs that fault memory was wiped before the sale and recovers what can be recovered.
Air suspension
Ride height at rest, height changes, compressor behavior and suspension faults are checked.
Cooling system
Coolant pipes, hoses and plastic fittings are inspected for leaks and residue.
Engine noise and leaks
Cold start noise and oil leaks are checked where the seller allows.
Body, paint and frame
Paint depth on every panel, panel gaps, and frame measurement to find past accident or flood repairs.
