Vehicle Inspections
Welcome to Revodo
Premium vehicle inspections and assessments
We hear of stories of buyers acting on impulse and purchasing a classic car without first obtaining expert advice, discovering later that behind the mirror paintwork, glossy photos, stunning chrome and shiny interior, their dream car has a hidden fault and is now their worst nightmare. Before parting with your hard earned cash, trust Revodo to complete a comprehensive inspection/assessment on your classic car and giving you the confidence that you have made a wise investment.
The comprehensive vehicle inspection from Revodo is ideal for people thinking about purchasing a prestige or classic vehicle, or for those who have recently purchased a used vehicle. As well as carrying out a full mechanical check on the vehicle, we also offer a full body check, for people who would prefer a professional opinion on the vehicle’s bodywork and overall cosmetic appearance.
