A seller who will not send them is telling you something. Or shortlist it and send it to us: we call the seller, check the papers and the service record, and tell you whether it is worth a visit.
Whatever used car you buy, have InspektAI inspect it before you pay. We work only for the buyer and take nothing from the sale.

- It already asks ₹92,000 less than our fair price of ₹8.1 lakh, so do not push too hard.
From how far sellers here have actually come down, not a promise. An inspection prices every fault it finds, and that moves a seller further.

What to check on this one at 44,000 km
- Timing chain, not a belt, so no scheduled change. A rattle for a second on a cold start points to a stretched chain: listen for it.
- CVT: listen for a whine as speed rises and feel for a surge or slip under acceleration. Ask when the CVT fluid was last changed; these gearboxes depend on it.
