Buyer-side, founder-led · Provenance First. Found Worldwide.
Alex Davey works for buyers, owners and collectors, never sellers. Independent advice on what to buy and what to avoid, then one point of contact for everything around the cars afterwards: the finding, the checking, the paperwork, the specialists, the moving, the keeping well, and eventually the selling.
There is no stock here and no seller commission, so there is nothing to steer you towards. When a car is wrong, you will be told it is wrong, and why.
"Walk away" is a recommendation Alex is structurally free to make. He makes it often. The cars that survive his scrutiny tend to be the ones worth keeping.
Most people do not need a car found. They need to make a good decision.
Most people arrive as one of three. Find yourself below, or simply describe your situation and let Alex place you. Nothing is a subscription, and nothing is sold that is not needed.
One car, handled properly
For a first serious purchase, or the one car that matters enough to buy properly. A search, a deal to check, an import, or a project brought under control.
Best for buying the right example once, with the evidence behind it and nobody selling to you.
See The Garage
Continuing care for a collection
For a collector who wants the pleasure of the cars without running the operation behind them. Servicing, storage, records, renewals and a plan, through one number.
Best for several cars kept ready, documented and properly looked after, without you chasing suppliers.
See The Stables
A private automotive office, retained
For a collection complicated by scale, geography, projects or family. Governance, reporting, budgets and cross-border movement, with one person accountable for all of it.
Best for cars across homes or countries, family offices, and inherited collections that need order.

Events, touring, and cars that start when asked.
The right route, at the right moment, with the file that proves the car.
One number, for the life of your collection.
Collection strategy, market context, valuation context, buy-or-walk-away calls, and the questions worth asking before money moves.
Search, shortlist, provenance and history checks, inspection coordination, negotiation, purchase, import and delivery.
Records, renewals, administration, transport, storage placement, budgets and supplier coordination.
Servicing oversight, detailing and paint protection placement, restoration governance, security coordination and sale preparation.
Some of this is Alex's own work. The physical and technical work is done by specialist partners he has chosen, briefed and stayed accountable for. Regulated services, such as insurance and finance, are introductions only, and any referral fee is disclosed before you act on it.
You deal directly with Alex Davey throughout. No call centre, no hand-off, no dealer sales process.
Behind the scenes, software watches the market, compares listings and organises the evidence. The AI runs the numbers. I run the relationship.
Alex's job is knowing what good looks like, and who to trust when it is not his own hands doing the work.
Cars were shortlisted several times, only for Alex to find paperwork discrepancies or unconvincing provenance. Eventually he found an example with exactly the spec I wanted.
Marc Sheridan, FranceBought in England and delivered to me in the Emirates without a single unpleasant surprise. The one he approved is the one I kept.
Mr Rupert Campbell-Scott, DubaiMy husband sources cars for a living, so of course he found mine 6,000 miles away in Japan rather than down the road. It landed immaculate. He liked it so much he then bought himself one too.
The founder’s wife, VW Golf GTISourcing and due diligence run across the UK, Europe, Japan and the US. Imports are handled end to end, with the real costs set out plainly before anything is committed.
Overseas clients are represented in the UK for cars bought, kept or moved here, with inspection, storage and transport coordinated on their behalf.
Every engagement is priced to the brief, the car and the complexity, and agreed in writing before work begins. No seller commission, ever. Third-party costs are separate, and approved by you in advance. If a referral fee could arise from an introduction, it is disclosed before you act.
The boring documents exist, and you can read them: the Privacy Notice and the Terms of Business.
