Put a Priceless Human Expert in your Corner with a tailored valuation report

  • Unparalleled Expertise: With over 70,000 hours of high-level market valuation experience earned over 40 years motor industry experience, I am an acknowledged motor trade expert and a person of high integrity. As the MD of Specialist Car Valuations and a verified member of the UK Register of Expert Witnesses, I offer true peace of mind by putting a priceless human expert in your corner.
  • Real valuations by a real expert: Too many online valuations are AI-generated from auction and eBay selling price data with no nuance or adjustment for unique bespoke features, actual condition or crucial provenance. Because I know that every classic car is different and does not fit a standard condition description, each report I supply is created by a real person (me) in real time using real research and hard-earned experience, not by machine from a database.
  • Uniquely Recognised and Recommended: I am the only independent classic car valuer endorsed by leading classic car insurers including Adrian Flux, Footman James, Classicline, Carole Nash, Locktons, the NFU, REIS Motorsport Insurance, and Performance Direct, among others. My vehicle import valuations are accepted by HMRC. I am the recommended motorcycle valuer for the Vintage Japanese Motorcycle Club (VJMC). I have appeared on the BBC and consulted to Antiques Roadshow. Long standing industry recognition underscores my commitment to excellence and trustworthiness in all valuations.
  • Diverse Legal Services for Diverse Needs: From Single Joint Expert Witness reports for UK divorce solicitors to detailed classic car valuation reports for civil cases, I operate with precision and care under the guidelines of CPR Part 35 and FPR Part 25. My expertise also extends to the Criminal Justice System and HMRC, where accuracy, excellence and a spotless reputation are paramount. My service covers the entire UK and further into Europe.
  • Put your car in the very best company: Many of the finest cars in the UK use my service and my valuation reports tell insurers and potential buyers that you hold your car and its value in high regard and insist on the best.
  • Personalised Consultations: Old cars never get old to me. Understanding that every classic car enthusiast has unique valuation requirements, I offer confidential, one-to-one valuation consultations. Contact me to discuss how I can support your specific needs with my bespoke classic car valuation services that are tailored precisely to your needs.
