Four fee bands, agreed before any work starts.
Consultation fees occupy four bands, the widest topping out at €200, decided by how much reading the brief demands. The band and the exact figure are confirmed in writing before research begins.
What each band covers.
| Fee band | Typical work |
|---|---|
| €1–€50 per consultation | Reading a single listing, or the price of one car against its market |
| €51–€100 per consultation | Sourcing against a brief, or a specification review of one candidate |
| €101–€150 per consultation | Budget planning, or setting several candidates side by side |
| €151–€200 per consultation | Decision support across a whole shortlist before viewings |
Prices are in pounds sterling and are quoted per consultation. Where a purchase completes against research we carried out, the completion basis is set out in the same engagement note — not as a percentage, but as an agreed figure stated in the document.
Scope, figure, then work.
No purchase, no negotiation, no guarantee.
The fee buys research and a written deliverable. It does not buy a car, and it does not include inspecting, collecting or negotiating on one. We do not act as your agent in a transaction and we take nothing from any seller. Because the research stays on the legal side of a purchase, it cannot promise an outcome — only the reading that precedes one.
