Yes—RACV does car inspections in Victoria, and they’re exactly the sort of calm, methodical once‑over you want before handing over your hard‑earned.
They offer mobile pre‑purchase and comprehensive checks that cover bodywork, mechanicals, underbody, and a road test, with a detailed written report.
Bookings are easy, and RACV members usually snag a discount; coverage is Melbourne and selected regional areas.
Just note they don’t issue roadworthy certificates—that’s for licensed testers—but their report is gold for negotiating on a used car from Tradingpost or anywhere else.
