The Private Automotive
Acquisition Process
The assignment
A great automobile is only the beginning.
The real value lies in everything that happens before it reaches the client.
A serious private automotive acquisition involves considerably more than finding a desirable vehicle. The process includes research, sourcing, provenance verification, due diligence, negotiation, acquisition and delivery.
Our methodology
A considered process,
from brief to handover.
- 01
Brief
Before searching for a car, we understand the collector: preferences, objectives, specification, collection and purpose.
- 02
Research
We research the relevant marque, model, specification, provenance and market landscape.
- 03
Sourcing
We identify suitable automobiles through our network and targeted international sourcing.
- 04
Verification
Potential acquisitions are examined against their documentation, provenance, specification and known history.
- 05
Due Diligence
Where appropriate, inspections, documentation reviews, condition assessments and specialist verification are coordinated.
- 06
Negotiation
Once an automobile has been approved, we manage the acquisition discussions with discretion and commercial discipline.
- 07
Acquisition
The transaction and associated documentation are coordinated carefully.
- 08
Delivery
International transportation, logistics and handover are coordinated according to the client's requirements.
The confidence to proceed
The automobile is only one part of the assignment.
The real work is ensuring that the right automobile reaches the right collector, for the right reasons, with the right level of confidence.
