Real inspectors. Named on every report.

Dean started turning spanners at Ultratune Marrickville in 2003, moved into European specialist diagnostics at a Volkswagen dealer, then went independent in 2017 after watching too many of his customers get burned on used-car buys. He founded Aussie Auto Care to do one thing well — give buyers an honest, mobile, defensible pre-purchase report.

"If I wouldn't let my mum buy it, the report will say so."

Priya spent seven years at an OEM battery R&D lab before joining the team to run our EV programme. She built the model-specific degradation curves we use across Tesla, BYD, Polestar, MG and the Korean brands. If you book an EV PPI on the lower North Shore, you're almost certainly getting Priya.

"A used EV is a battery on wheels. Test the battery, or you're guessing."

Jordan came from a four-wheel-drive specialist workshop in Caringbah. If the vehicle has touched dirt, he'll find it — bent rails, cracked diff housings, repainted bash plates, the lot. He covers the entire Sutherland Shire and St George area.

"Dealers say 'one careful owner'. The chassis tells me the truth."

Marco runs our western and south-west corridor — Parramatta, Blacktown, Liverpool, Campbelltown. Ex-Ford diesel technician. If you're buying a Ranger, Hilux, D-Max, Amarok or a tradie van, you want Marco's eyes on it.

"Most 'low-km' diesel utes have been worked harder than the seller admits. The DPF doesn't lie."

Amira is the voice on the phone when you call 02 8320 1246. She owns the booking pipeline end-to-end — slot allocation, dealer access calls, payment handling, and the follow-up call after your report lands. If a dealer is being difficult about access, Amira fixes it before the inspector arrives.

"My job is to make sure nothing about the booking gets in the way of a clean inspection."
