Hello
I have just looked at a car that had 2 AA reports. The dealer said it doesn’t check cosmetic things. Is this as comprehensive as the one I would get from you? It seemed mechanical only. The car is an import and I want to make sure there is no rust in the doors, under the car etc.

Hi there,
Our AA Appraisals are a 1-page (seller focused) dealer only inspection. Our AA Pre Purchase inspection (buyer focused) is 7-8 pages and is a visual inspection of the vehicle. As per information on our website: https://www.aa.co.nz/cars/buying-a-car/car-buying-guide/pre-purchase-vehicle-inspections/
