Being a Member of the AA I would like to know how much would it cost for me to have a Car I'm thinking of Buying and what is the usual procedure in getting the Car looked out.
If the Car 'doesn't pass your Inspection then do I have to pay 'everytime' I get the AA to look at a Car?
Thanks,
Sparky.

Hello Sparky,
The cost of a Pre-purchase inspection is $149 for members and $169 for non-members. A report will be provided that will give you an indication regarding any existing defects. Whether or not you choose to buy the car is up to you.
If you choose not to buy that car and choose to have another vehicle inspected, the same amount of work is required by the inspector, so yes, the same charge applies to any subsequent inspection.
