There was a car I wanted to get a Pre-Purchase Inspection - The944
There was a car I wanted to get a Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) on, and apparently MB of Pompano Beach doesn't do PPIs (I've run into dealerships in the past that also refuse; likely a liability thing). But thankfully, MB Coconut Creek does.
My appointment was with Service Advisor Kristopher K. Kristopher was super cool, and understood exactly what I after when I told him I don't want someone telling me only obvious stuff like a turn signal bulb is out, or tire tread/brake pad thickness; I want someone to take a deep dive into the car, and be my eyes and ears, since the car wasn't local to me. In fact, I didn't ask for a PPI; I asked for a CPO (Certified Pre-Owned) Inspection which is MUCH more detailed and involved than a PPI, as the car has to meet high stringent standards to be eligible for CPO status. In fact, they have to inspect pretty much every single function on the car to ensure its working, as a part of a CPO Inspection. Chris assured me he understood exactly what I was looking for, and told me "There's a specific tech I want to take a look at it." And that's exactly what I wanted to hear.
The tech that inspected the car was Carmen. And let me tell you, Carmen went above and beyond. He uploaded twenty four (24) short videos of his inspection process, literally going over every inch of the car, interior, exterior, underside, and mechanical. Its probably the most comprehensive and detail-oriented inspection I've ever had done. Needless to say, I got my money's worth, and then some...and the inspection wasn't cheap at all.
So if you wanna check out an MB in the Pompano Beach/North Ft. Lauderdale/Boca Raton area, or you want your MB serviced with someone who's very meticulous and detail oriented, I'd HIGHLY recommend you book with Service Advisor Kristopher K, and ask for Carmen as your technician. You won't be disappointed!
