What is different about RAK cars
Two things set the northern emirates apart, and both are physical rather than commercial.
- Coastal air. Cars kept near the water corrode faster than cars inland. We check the boot lip, door bottoms, sill seams, brake lines and the underside more closely here.
- Mountain and gravel roads. A lot of RAK cars see Jebel Jais and the wadi tracks. That is harder on suspension, underbody and tyres than city driving, and it leaves marks underneath that a casual look misses.
The underbody check matters more here
On coastal and off-road cars we recommend the Ultimate package, which includes inspection on a lift. Corrosion and impact damage sit underneath the car where you cannot see them from a forecourt walk-around, and on a ten-year-old coastal car that is where the expensive news usually is.
Booking
Give us a day's notice for RAK where you can. If you are buying from a seller who wants to close immediately, tell us and we will do what we can, but we would rather be honest about the travel than promise an hour we cannot keep.

How much does a car inspection cost in Ras Al Khaimah?
Our packages are AED 239 for Basic, AED 379 for Comprehensive and AED 559 for Ultimate. The price is the same across every emirate we cover, with no travel surcharge.
Do I need to bring the car to you?
No. The inspector comes to wherever the car is in Ras Al Khaimah, which matters because before you buy, the car is still the seller's and asking him to drive it across town rarely ends well. The only exception is our Ultimate package, which includes a lift and needs a workshop bay.
How long does it take and when do I get the report?
The inspection itself takes between 45 minutes and two hours depending on the package. The Basic report reaches you within three hours. Comprehensive and Ultimate reports arrive the same day, with a photograph attached to every fault.
Are you connected to any dealer or garage in Ras Al Khaimah?
No. We do not sell cars, we take no referral fees, and we do not own a workshop that would benefit from finding faults. You pay us, so we work for you.
