Pre-owned vehicle research

We do not sell cars. We read the market for you.

Set the budget, the models and the limits. We work through the sources, price the candidates against their own market, and send you a written comparison to take to a viewing. The decision stays with you; the reading that precedes it does not have to.

Per consultation · from €1
Four fee bands · to €200

What we need from you

Five details, and the search can start.

What we cannot guess Leave a field blank and we will say what the search loses by it, instead of guessing the answer for you. One question now beats a wasted search reported back at the end.

BudgetThe range you are working to
Make and modelBadge and body style
MileageThe highest you will consider
AgeThe oldest plate you will accept
LocationThe distance you will cover to view
Other requirementsGearbox, fuel, trim, anything fixed

The same listings, read from the other side of the desk.

Everything starts from published listings and public records. None of it is a promise about a car nobody has stood next to yet.

The reading takes time. We spend it before you spend the fuel.

How it works

Four stages, and a document at the close of each.

Every stage closes with a document, so you can always see what has been done, what it rested on, and what is still open.

The brief goes in

Budget, models, mileage ceiling, age floor, travel radius and anything fixed.

What we are not

No stock, no seller paying us, and no car we can make good.

We sell the reading, not the car. Every figure comes with what backs it, every recommendation stops at the point you decide, and a brief that cannot be met gets told so on the first reply rather than the fifth.
