Common questions
The ones that come up most.
Will you tell me what my car is worth?
No. We do not value cars. A marque specialist or an auction house valuer is the right place for that.
Can you recommend a workshop?
No. We explain how to assess one, because the right choice depends on the car, the standard and you.
Should I restore or preserve?
It depends almost entirely on how much original material survives. The first piece on this site goes through the decision properly.
Do you inspect cars?
No. The advisory sessions are conversations; we never see the vehicle and we carry out no inspection.
Are your cost figures reliable?
They are ranges, dated, and drawn from real quotations. Treat them as a way to sense-check a quote, not as a price.
Do workshops pay you?
No. There is no advertising and no commission anywhere on this site.
How do I report an error?
Through the contact form, naming the page and paragraph. Confirmed errors are corrected with a note.
