Who We Are

V.A.M. Checks Limited is an independent pre-purchase vehicle inspection company based in Dublin, Ireland, operating nationwide. Every inspection is carried out by an experienced, certified vehicle inspector โ€” giving you a consistent, professional assessment every time.

We started VAMChecks because buying a used car is one of the biggest financial decisions most people make โ€” yet most buyers do it without a proper technical assessment. We wanted to change that.

Our goal: Give every car buyer in Ireland the same technical information a professional mechanic would have โ€” before they sign anything.

Our Speciality

We have particular experience with Japanese imported vehicles โ€” Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Mazda โ€” and hybrid/electric cars, including battery diagnostic scanning using professional OBD equipment.

Irish buyers importing from Japan face specific risks: undisclosed bodywork repairs, hybrid battery wear, and mileage discrepancies that standard checks can miss. We know what to look for.
