We're opening Auto Komis at Grabiszyńska 241 — we sell only verified used cars: with full history, checked in our workshop, and with a warranty on select models. Before any car goes on sale, it goes through the same inspection we run for our everyday service customers.

Buying a car from a classified ad is a gamble — you don't know if the mileage is real, whether the car had a serious accident, or what's actually under the hood. That's why Auto Komis Brutalny Podnośnik works differently: every car goes through our workshop before it's listed — with a lift, computer diagnostics, and HUNTER wheel alignment on site. You see the actual inspection result, not the seller's opinion.

How we verify a car before it's listed

Before any car appears in Auto Komis, it goes through three stages of checks:

  1. Document and history verification — we check mileage against available databases (CEPiK, service history, inspection records) and compare it to the car's actual condition. A mismatch between mileage and wear is the first warning sign.
  2. Technical inspection in the workshop — the car goes on a lift: we check the suspension, brakes, fluids, seals, and the underbody condition (rust, signs of bodywork repairs, uneven welds).
  3. Computer diagnostics and a test drive — reading fault codes from the onboard computer, checking engine and transmission behaviour on a short test route to catch symptoms you can't see while the car is standing still.

Why this matters

A private seller has no reason to show you a computer diagnostics result or the underbody condition. We do — because we're the ones running that check, in our own workshop, on the same equipment we use for regular servicing.

What exactly we check during the pre-sale inspection

The pre-listing check covers the same points as our standard pre-road-trip inspection, only more thoroughly — because it determines whether the car gets listed at all:

  • Suspension — play, bushings, shock absorbers, condition of arms and joints
  • Brakes — pad and disc thickness, condition of lines and brake fluid
  • Engine and transmission — seals, belt/chain condition, idle and under-load behaviour
  • Underbody — corrosion, repair marks, underbody seal integrity, exhaust and DPF/FAP filter condition
  • Wheel alignment — measured on a HUNTER rig if the car shows uneven tyre wear
  • Electronics — reading computer fault codes, air conditioning, lighting, and sensor function

If a car has a serious fault that would require costly repairs right after purchase, it simply doesn't get listed — or it's listed with a clear description of the work needed and a correspondingly lower price. We don't sell in a hurry just to close a deal.

Viewing and test drive — how to book

You book a viewing online through the booking form or by phone. On site, we show you the full documentation — inspection results, service history, any repairs done before listing — and you go for a test drive. No rushing, no pressure of "someone else is looking at this car in an hour."

Financing — credit, leasing, instalments

We work with banks and leasing companies, so if you're not paying cash, we'll help you choose a financing option and handle the paperwork on the spot — no running between institutions. This covers both consumer credit and business leasing.

Got a car to sell? Buy-back and trade-in

If you want to sell your current car or trade it in against another purchase, we'll prepare a valuation right after the inspection — no need to post your own ad or deal with random buyers. We can simply buy it or take it as part of the deal.

Warranty — what it actually covers

We offer a warranty on select models — its scope depends on the specific car's condition and age, so we always spell it out clearly before purchase, not just in the fine print. If a car comes with a warranty, you know exactly what it covers and for how long.

What to watch out for when buying outside a verified dealer

Warning signs when buying from a classified ad

Mileage that doesn't match interior and pedal wear, no service history, fresh paint on only one body panel, a seller reluctant to allow a test drive or a lift inspection, a price noticeably below market with no explanation — any of these is reason enough to order an independent check before buying, or to walk away.

If you've already picked out a car from a private seller and want peace of mind before signing, you can also book a one-off pre-purchase inspection with us — the same lift and diagnostics check we run on cars entering our own dealership.

Are the cars at Auto Komis technically inspected?

Yes. Every car goes through a check in our workshop before listing — we verify technical condition on a lift and with computer diagnostics, and cross-check mileage and history against available databases.

Can I go on a test drive before buying?

Yes, always. Book a viewing online, and on site we'll show you the documentation and you'll go for a test drive before making a decision.

Do you help with credit or leasing?

Yes. We work with banks and leasing companies — we'll help you choose credit, leasing, or instalments and handle the paperwork on the spot, the same day.

Do you accept a car as a trade-in against another purchase?

Yes. We buy cars or take them as a trade-in — we prepare a valuation right after inspection, with no need to post your own ad.

Does every car come with a warranty?

We offer a warranty on select models, depending on their condition and age. We always clearly state the warranty scope before purchase, so you know exactly what to expect.

We run Auto Komis the same way we run the service side — no shortcuts. Every car that gets listed, I've personally seen on the lift myself. If I wouldn't buy it for myself, it doesn't go on sale.

Book a viewing and test drive — we'll show you the full documentation on site.

I changed the oil, great service — they lift your car while you run your errands, at half the price of a regular workshop. Recommended.
