Exquisite Cars. Trusted Expertise. Personal Service.
Representing clients in the sourcing, acquisition & sale of exceptional motor cars

About Lawrence Smith
THE RELENTLESS PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE, DRIVEN BY PASSION, PROVEN BY RESULTS.
I have bought and sold thousands of exceptional cars over 37 years, at the very highest level, and rejected more than I care to remember that didn’t meet my exacting standards, for myself or for my clients.
That experience allows me to guide you through every aspect of sourcing, acquiring, and selling a car, safely, seamlessly, and properly handled from start to finish.
Because complex, high-value decisions deserve independent advice

Common Questions
I provide independent specialist car consultancy, advice and personal representation to clients throughout the UK and internationally.
My services include independent car-buying advice, car sourcing and acquisition, personal car shopping, vehicle inspections and due diligence, and professional assistance with selling specialist cars.
Whether you need straightforward advice before making a purchase, an experienced professional to assess a particular vehicle, or someone to manage the entire buying or selling process on your behalf, I offer a personal service tailored to your individual requirements.
If you have a particular or unusual requirement that doesn’t fit neatly into any of the services described above, please get in touch. I’ll be happy to discuss what you have in mind and whether I can help.
When buying a car, it’s important to have someone looking after your interests at every stage, rather than those of the supplying dealership or seller.
As an independent specialist car consultant, I work solely on your behalf, providing impartial expert advice based on 37 years of motor industry experience. I’m not tied to any manufacturer or dealership, so my recommendations are guided by what’s right for you, your requirements and your budget.
From choosing the right car through to assessing its condition, history and value, negotiating the purchase and managing the process, my role is to help you make an informed decision with confidence.
For car-buying assignments, my professional fee is paid exclusively by you, my client. I receive no commissions or referral payments from supplying dealers or private sellers, ensuring my advice remains independent.
Yes, absolutely. When you engage any of my services, you deal directly with me, Lawrence Smith, the owner of the business, from our initial conversation through to the completion of your assignment.
With 37 years of experience in the motor industry, including senior roles with Land Rover and Mercedes-Benz, I personally provide the advice, expertise and representation you are engaging me for.
I don’t pass clients on to junior consultants, salespeople or account managers. You have one dedicated point of contact throughout, ensuring continuity, discretion and a clear understanding of your individual requirements.
My business is built around personal relationships, trust and the reassurance of knowing exactly who is looking after your interests.
By their very nature, no two assignments are exactly the same, so my professional fee reflects your individual requirements and the work involved.
I believe in complete transparency when it comes to costs. We’ll discuss your requirements, what I can do for you and the fee for my services, so everything is clearly explained and we’re both comfortable with the arrangements before agreeing to proceed.
There are no hidden charges or unexpected fees. You’ll know what has been agreed, what is included and what you can expect from me.
For car-buying assignments, my professional fee is paid exclusively by you, my client. I do not receive commissions or referral payments from supplying dealers or private sellers.
My services are designed for individuals and organisations who value independent professional advice, personal attention and the reassurance of having an experienced specialist looking after their interests.
I work with private individuals, busy professionals, company directors, senior executives, high-net-worth clients, family offices and international buyers who may not have the time, specialist knowledge or desire to manage a car purchase or sale themselves.
Whether you’re purchasing your next everyday car, considering something more specialist or valuable, selling a cherished vehicle, or simply seeking impartial advice before making a decision, I can provide the level of support appropriate to your requirements.
Above all, my services are for people who value trust, discretion, transparency and the confidence that comes from dealing directly with an experienced professional.
