What we've actually found on driveways like yours.
Anonymised case studies from recent bookings, battery degradation a buyer never would've seen, undisclosed accident repair, and the occasional perfect car that earns a clean report.
A 'one-owner' Ranger that had been hit hard at the rear
2022 Ford Ranger XLT 3.0L V6, 41,200km · Blacktown
Dealer listing, 'no accident history'. Our paint-depth gauge read 380μm across the tailgate and rear quarter, twice the factory thickness. The dealer eventually disclosed the vehicle was a recorded repairable write-off.
A 2021 Tesla Model 3 with a battery-health concern
2021 Tesla Model 3 Long Range, 78,400km · Balmain
Private seller. Asking $42,990. Listing claimed 'genuine 480km range'. The case records an 82.4% SoH result. That is a test-time assessment, not a prediction of when replacement will be required or what it will cost.
A 2023 BYD Atto 3 that genuinely was as good as the listing said
2023 BYD Atto 3 Extended Range, 22,400km · Chatswood
Not every inspection finds a problem. Here's what a clean report looks like, and why it's still worth every dollar.
