Mechanics on Wheels are simply awesome. I have used their services on several occasions, and all these times they were very professional, and did very thorough checks. The assessment reports are very detailed, helping you to make an informed decision. They are also available to discuss the findings with you later. Call on them until you find the right car.

Very professional and liable team. They were punctual and gave me the timely inspection report earlier than they said they would. Definitely recommend. Paul Washiali2023-10-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I called them at 7pm to book an appointment and by 9am they were on the assignment. Their report helped me to make a selection between two competing car alternatives the Landcruiser Prado and the Landcruiser LC 200.Their report is well comprehensive covering all the minor and major details of the car. Nick N N2023-09-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very happy with the service Mechs on Wheels provides. I intend to keep working with them. I purchased their service on an evening and the next day (on time) they inspected a vehicle I was interested in. Their inspection was very thorough and they found issues such as adjusted & incorrect odometer value, wrong fuel capacity ( it was a 3.7 liter as opposed to the 2.5 l that I wanted) and a minor issue with the ABS. They also undertook a test drive and gave me a report afterwards with plenty of details about the car. Highly recommended service!

Patrick Gwayi2023-09-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I contacted them for a pre-purchase car checkup, and I was highly impressed by their professionalism. They arrived punctually, meticulously inspected the car, and conducted all the necessary checks. Within less than 24 hours, they delivered a comprehensive report about the vehicle. Their charges are also very affordable and reasonable. I highly recommend them. Dennis Kipruto2023-09-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When you think about great customer experience and trust the team at MOW live it. Went on Google, saw their work and testimonies, called Dennis and they had a mech (Mutua) available. Within 2 hrs after payment , the assessment of the car had been done. Post inspection we had 1. Phone call with the Mech on ground 2. Received a detailed report on the vehicle status 3. Had a conference call to disuss the PPI All of this was done without meeting the MOW team Physical Overally the team at MOW do a great job. Would recommend them for your PPI needs.
