PPI Question

Hi All,

 

I have a deposit on a Murcielago in Southern Florida from a reputable dealership. The deal is all but done, but I want a thorough PPI done on the car. I seem to have terrible luck with mechanics, and all either want the car taken to them (which the dealership doesn't seem to want to do), don't do PPIs, or flake out. The dealership is willing to have any mechanic use their lift and any tools they have to accomplish the PPI. When I bought my Gallardo, it was from a private owner who took the car to the mechanic for the PPI; I'm not sure if this is typical of dealers? The first mechanic I spoke to said he would drive to the dealership, but never contacted the dealer, and quit answering my emails. The second mechanic is about 40 minutes away, but said he was too busy to go to the dealership, and requested the car be taken to him. I spoke to the sales manager and he recommended that their service department could perform the PPI. I indicated that I am concerned about there being a conflict of interest, and he indicated that the sales and service department are two separate entities, and if I pay them for a PPI they are obligated to disclose everything wrong with the car. I think I already know the answer to this question, but is it a bad idea to let the dealership do a PPI on the car they are selling? Again, my concern is a conflict of interest, but maybe I'm being paranoid. If anyone knows a reputable mechanic in the Southern Florida area (Ft. Lauderdale, Palm Beach, Jupiter, Pompano Beach, or Miami) who would be willing to commute, I'd appreciate any referrals. Thanks!

Try Doug Levin?

 

 

Do not let Lambo Miami ppi a car you’re buying from them or any ppi for that matter.

They didn't even notice something simple such as my NAV DVD Missing.....
