At Epping Car Buyer, we offer two specialist services: in-depth vehicle inspections to help you buy with confidence, and our managed Market & Sell service to help you get more for your vehicle.

Buying a used car? Our inspections assess the relevant engine and drivetrain, brakes, steering, suspension, diagnostic findings, body condition and road-test behaviour. We explain the issues and help you understand what they mean before you commit.
See the car through an inspector's eyes. We explain the positives, the issues and what needs attention in plain English, so you can decide whether to proceed, ask for repairs or discuss the price.
EV buyers are covered too
EV and hybrid checks are part of the main inspection where supported, with an optional dedicated EV Battery State of Health report for compatible fully electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles.

Toyota Yaris · Premium inspection
Inspected at a car dealer in Southend-on-Sea, Essex
I just want to say a huge thank you for all your help and support. After having a bad experience with my previous car, I had a lot of concerns about buying another one, so I decided to have a pre-purchase inspection.
After comparing different companies, choosing your service was one of the best decisions I made. From my very first WhatsApp message, communication was excellent. You answered all my questions quickly and clearly, and after I booked the Premium Car Audit, you contacted me straight away to ask if there was anything specific I wanted you to focus on.
You inspected the car the very next day and called me immediately afterwards to explain everything and reassure me. You also provided videos, a detailed report, and continued to answer all my questions promptly.
I really appreciated the level of care and professionalism throughout the whole process. As someone who doesn't know much about cars, I felt completely supported and confident in my decision.
I would absolutely recommend you and your service to anyone looking to buy a car. Thank you again for helping me find the right car with peace of mind!

“I am very happy with the service. Value for money was great.”
