What is a "redline inspection" ?
My car has landed and the container is due for pickup and unpacking tomorrow.
Agent advised today that it has passed "redline inspection".
What does this mean ?

They put their foot to the floor in neutral and see if any engine bits come flying off.

Ok, I might have made that up.
Re: What is a "redline inspection" ?
I was so with you , Hybrid. I love redline tests concerning other peoples rides. :rotfl:
(PRAYER) Oh thank you Wild Turkey American Honey & Cola in those small thin bottles, for giving me the strength to act like a half wit, and say stupid things at inappropriate times, semi-anonymously, on a public forum.
Amen.
Amen.

Redline means that the car hit the shores and if Australian customs think there is any thing fishy about the import, they "REDLINE" it.
It basically tells the customs agent to hold up a few days so they can inspect the paperwork and any relevent documents for or about the car.
Sometimes its just a random thing Oz customs does.
Once its cleared the redline...its all go from there
