The Process

From Brief To Shortlist

A structured, independent process designed to help you find the right vehicle, avoid poor examples, and make a more confident buying decision.

1

Submit Your Brief

Tell us exactly what you're looking for. Budget, preferred models, mileage, fuel type, must-have options, finance requirements and part exchange details. The more information you provide, the better the shortlist we can build.

Once your service package is selected and payment is complete, your search becomes active.

2

Market Analysis & Sourcing

We review the UK market and filter out vehicles that do not meet the brief, are badly priced, have weak history, poor specification, poor dealer reputation, or simply do not represent good value.

  • Franchised dealer stock
  • Independent specialist stock
  • Approved used vehicles
  • New car availability
  • Market pricing and valuation signals
3

Receive Your Vehicle Report

You receive a structured digital report with our recommended options and the key reasons behind each recommendation.

  • Shortlisted vehicle options
  • Advert links
  • Price and market commentary
  • MOT and history risk review
  • Dealer reputation checks
  • Our recommendation and next steps

You Choose With Confidence

You can contact the dealer directly using the information in the report, or upgrade to our negotiation service if you would like us to handle the dealer conversation.

Optional: Use our Negotiation Add-on, and we will contact the dealer on your behalf.
