First-hand customer experience
However, the on-site inspection uncovered several costly issues. The inspection report and Meistercheck's recommendation helped me walk away from the purchase in time and avoid a costly mistake.
Meistercheck then helped me continue my search and found me a much better car – at a price I honestly hadn't expected. In the end, I bought a very well-equipped car and still saved a lot of money.”

Yes, of course. If you would like to attend the on-site inspection, let us know when booking. We will then try to find an appointment that works for you, the seller and the inspector. Since all three need to be available at the same time, we cannot guarantee it – but we do our best to make it possible.
The used car inspection is carried out exclusively by experienced vehicle experts – with sound training, practical experience and technical know-how. All our vehicle experts are certified automotive master technicians (Kfz-Meister). This guarantees an independent, expert and high-quality inspection – directly on site.
A professional inspection by our vehicle experts is also possible for deregistered vehicles without any problem. However, a test drive provides additional insights. If you would like one despite the deregistration, we will be happy to clarify whether and how our expert can carry it out. In such cases additional effort may arise, about which we will of course inform you transparently in advance.
Payment is processed securely via our payment service provider Stripe. Available options include:
- Credit card (Visa, Mastercard)
- Apple Pay

The payment methods available in each case are shown during the booking process. Business customers can also pay by bank transfer against invoice by individual arrangement.
