An eye level view from inside one of our glorious potholes on our roads, I kept shouting for help, but no one came, I at least thought Lassie would show up!

And road tax has just gone up again in April........

BMW M2 Coupe in Java Green Metallic.

In a world of greys, blacks and silvers, this does something very different.
Not a colour you choose lightly, but when it works, it works exceptionally well.

It won’t appeal to everyone.
And that’s exactly why it works.

Finalising a Range Rover assignment for a client recently, and this particular car stood out immediately.

Carpathian Grey with the Shadow Exterior Pack and 23-inch Style 1075 wheels in Gloss Dark Grey.

For me, this is exactly how a modern Range Rover should be specified.

Understated, but with real presence.

It’s often these small decisions around colour and detail that elevate a car from simply good… to absolutely right.

Car shopping for a client today in London.

For a moment, I thought they had my car ready and waiting outside The Dorchester… a rather fabulous Rolls-Royce Phantom in a setting that suits it perfectly.

As it turned out, my meeting was at a very high-profile dealership next door.

Equally grand, just not quite this grand.

Not a bad way to spend the day all the same.

There are moments when a car simply stops you in your tracks.

At first glance, this looks like a Lancia Stratos…
but it’s something rather more unusual.

This is a 2022 Retropower Stratos HF Volumex, a one-of-one reinterpretation of one of rallying’s most iconic shapes.

The proportions, the stance, the detail — it all feels instantly familiar, yet entirely bespoke.

Powered by a supercharged Alfa Romeo Busso V6, it’s a fascinating blend of heritage and modern engineering.

Cars like this are a reminder that great design never really fades. It simply evolves.

A brief moment with a beautifully specified Porsche Macan GTS.

Pebble interior paired with Copper Ruby Metallic — a combination that works exceptionally well in natural light.

Sourced and secured recently for a client through my Personal Car Shopper service.

Whilst at Porsche finalising a Macan GTS for a client, this beautifully specified 992 Gen 2 Targa 4 GTS in Paint To Sample Linden Green immediately caught my eye.

Paint To Sample remains one of the more important options when specifying a Porsche properly. It allows a car to become genuinely individual.

The right specification makes all the difference.

Finalising a Macan GTS for a client yesterday at a Porsche Centre.

On the way out, this caught my eye.

A new 992 Carrera 4 GTS in Shade Green Metallic, sitting quietly but saying plenty.

Even when one deal concludes, the next opportunity is usually right there in front of you.

That’s often how it works.

Always looking. Always observing.

Exquisite Cars. Trusted Expertise. Personal Service.

1998 Ferrari F355 GTS
Argento Nürburgring over Bordeaux leather.

A beautifully specified example of the car that marked Ferrari’s return to form in the mid-1990s.
Designed by Pininfarina, shaped by extensive wind-tunnel development, and powered by one of the most distinctive naturally aspirated V8s of its era.

Not my car and not for sale by me — shared simply for interest and enjoyment.

For the right BMW M collector, opportunities like this are very rare.

I’ve recently been asked to represent a client in finding the right next home for this exceptional 1999 BMW E36 M3 GT2 EVO.

Finished in Imola Red, this is one of just 50 right-hand-drive UK examples, a low-mile, concours-winning car and an important piece of BMW M history.

The car is off-market, and any discussions will be handled carefully and professionally, with complete discretion.

I’m happy to speak with serious buyers who are ready and able to proceed.
Further details can be shared privately, where appropriate.

Range Rover Sport SVR | Estoril Blue

This is a car I handled the sale of back in October 2021 for a long-standing client.

Finished in Estoril Blue with Ebony and Cirrus leather, this Range Rover Sport SVR was beautifully specified — carbon fibre exterior pack, exposed carbon bonnet, and 22-inch gloss black alloys. A proper presence, and exactly how an SVR should look.

My role was to manage the sale discreetly and securely from start to finish, alongside a second car for the same client. One point of contact, enquiries handled properly, and the right audience engaged from the outset. The car was ultimately placed with an established trade specialist within my network.

High-performance SUVs always attract attention. Selling one properly is about controlling that attention — protecting privacy, filtering time-wasters, and ensuring the car is positioned and negotiated at the right level.

Raw video, no polish. Just a reminder of a great car, and how it should be represented.
