    Pre-purchase inspections in Melbourne?

    Hey guys, a search didn't yield many results at all, but as you might know I'm in the market for a used R32.

    At the moment I've got two places that do PPIs

    1 - Volkspower, quoted me $100 for 1hr

    2 - Auto dynamics in Cheltenham, same price, but said more $$ and hours for a more thorough inspection

    Has anyone had any experience with any of these guys in the past?

    My other option was to take it to a VW dealer, who said they could do a RWC and run it through VAGCOM to check for errors for $150, and would take 2 hours. This would be the safest option wouldn't it? Cheers in advance fellas.

    That seems cheap! I recently got one done in Adelaide with the RAA and it was well over $200, but it included an inspection of the body and trim as well as a check to see if was written off, had finance owing, etc. Still, it seems a little $$-y. I would have liked to have got a VW specialist to do it, but the RAA seemed easier.

    BTW - Volkspower in Burwood looks like they might be me new mechanic as they're close to my new work (Deakin Uni).
