I agree, that's why I try to find out about problems I notice 'before' I consider getting a RACQ inspection. Even after an inspection, I pick the brains of the inspector if they're willing to talk. Not all inspectors are though, but I can ask a mechanic about the report. The best reports are when they don't find much. The car I have now had a great report and turned out to be a good purchase. Sure, some things can be overlooked and I guess that's where warranty can come in handy for those things warranty covers. Buying a car is a risk though and sometimes you can end up with a lemon no matter what you do.
