One inspection engine, every dealership workflow
Build a template once and use it wherever a vehicle needs a structured check. The three most common uses are below, and the same templates work for trade-in appraisals, stock-arrival checks, MOT pre-checks or anything else you need.
Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI)
A sign-off checklist your team works through before every customer handover. Road test, brakes, fluids, lights and interior, with photos and notes against any item. Print the branded report alongside the deal documents.
Vehicle healthcheck
Healthchecks on any car in your stock, before it goes on sale or while it waits on the forecourt. Mark items as pass / advisory / fail, attach tyre and brake photos, and keep a clear record against the vehicle.
Handover report
A customer-facing branded summary of the checks you have done on the car. Print it or save it as a PDF and hand it over with the keys. It shows the customer what you checked, flags advisories you can quote for, and looks far better than a scribbled job card.
Not another app. Not another login.
Most inspection apps are a separate product, with their own subscription and login, and data you have to export at the end of the month. Haswent Inspections lives inside the dealer management system your team already uses every day. Inspections attach to the vehicle in your stock, so when that vehicle is on a deal and you print the deal documents at handover, its inspections are already there in the list.
- One login: the same user accounts, permissions and dealership branding
- Linked to your stock: inspections attach to the vehicle record, not a separate database
- Available on every device: the same browser-based DMS your team uses on the desk works just as well on a workshop tablet
- No extra cost: included with your Haswent DMS subscription
A vehicle inspection app built for the workshop
Design, run and share inspections without spreadsheets or paper job cards.
Custom templates
Build unlimited templates with your own sections and questions. A PDI, a stock healthcheck and a part-exchange check can each have their own structure.
Photos per item
Attach photos to individual checklist items, not just the inspection as a whole. Tyre tread photos against the tyre item, brake pad photos against the brakes item.
Notes & advisories
Per-item notes capture measurements, advisory wording for the customer, or anything that needs flagging. Notes appear inline in the detailed PDF.
Inspector attribution
Each answer records the team member who saved it, and the inspector's name is printed at the top of both PDF reports, so you know who checked what.
Simple & detailed PDFs
Every inspection gives you two report layouts: a one-page summary and a full report with photos and notes. Both carry the inspector's name and your dealership's branding.
Phone & tablet ready
Works in the same browser your team already uses. Run inspections from a phone in the showroom or a tablet on the ramp, with the camera one tap away.
Pass / advisory / fail
Each check item gets a pass, advisory or fail result rather than a simple tick. Advisories carry through to the customer report.
Linked to your stock
Inspections attach to the vehicle in your stock. When that vehicle is on a deal, its inspections appear in the deal's print list as a Simple or Detailed report.
From template to signed-off in three steps
Set the templates up once. After that, every inspection follows the same steps.
Design your templates
Add the sections and questions you want for each job: PDI, healthcheck, handover or part-exchange check. Reorder them and choose an answer type for each question: pass/fail, text, yes/no, slider, photo or signature. Your team can add notes and photos to any question as they go.
Run the inspection
Open the inspection from the vehicle on a phone or tablet. Tap pass / advisory / fail, snap photos straight from the camera, add notes where needed. Everything saves as your team works through it.
Share the branded report
Open a Simple or Detailed report with one click. Print it or save it as a PDF, and add it to the deal pack at handover. The customer sees your branding, not a generic checklist app.

Everything you need to know about Haswent Inspections.
Anything that needs a structured, evidenced checklist on a vehicle. The most common uses are Pre-Delivery Inspections (PDI) before customer handover, healthchecks on cars in your stock, handover reports for buyers, and condition checks when a vehicle arrives in your inventory, including part exchanges once they are added to stock.
A good used car inspection checklist covers the road test, brakes, tyres and wheels, lights, fluids, the engine and cooling system, electrics, the interior, seats, windows and locks, plus the paperwork: V5C, service history, MOT and keys. Our free printable vehicle inspection checklist covers all of these.

Yes. Build as many templates as you need with your own sections and questions. A PDI template might cover road test, brakes, fluids and lights; a handover template might be a single page of customer-facing summary points. Choose an answer type for each question: pass/fail, text, yes/no, slider, photo or signature. Your team can add notes and photos to any question as they go.
Yes. Photos and notes attach to individual checklist items, not just the inspection as a whole. That means a tyre tread photo sits against the tyre item, and a brake-pad measurement note sits against the brakes item. Both appear inline in the final PDF.
A vehicle condition report is a record of a car's condition on a given day: what passed, what needs attention and what failed, with notes and photos. In Haswent, every inspection gives you a Simple and a Detailed report you can print or save as a PDF for the customer or your own records.
Yes. Every completed inspection generates two branded PDF reports: a Simple summary for quick reference and a Detailed report with notes, inspector name and photos inline. Both carry your dealership logo and details, and can be printed or saved as a PDF for the customer.
Yes. Each answer records the team member who saved it, and the inspector's name is printed at the top of both PDF reports, so you can see who carried out the inspection on any vehicle.
Inspections is part of the web-based Haswent DMS, so there is nothing to install. Your team logs in on any phone, tablet or laptop and works through the checklist on the device. Photos are uploaded straight from the device's camera.
No. Inspections is included as part of the Haswent Dealer Management System subscription, with no separate fee and no per-inspection charge.
