Services
Time with somebody who has had a car in pieces for far longer than intended. It is the only thing sold here, and it is not an inspection, a survey or a quotation.
Three of them, chosen by how far the car has already been taken apart. Each ends with pages you can work from at the bench.
€105€80 / 60 min
For a car that has been apart for a while. We go through photographs and what is in the boxes, and work out what would get it moving again.
€125 / 90 min
Which work to do yourself and which to buy in, for one specific car, one shed and the amount of time you actually have.
€240€195 / 2 × 90 min
The whole cycle: what to aim at, what to source now, how the car spends the winter, and what happens in spring.
Guide prices, VAT included where charged. Times are fixed by email and settled by transfer afterwards; no money changes hands on these pages.
Before: you send photographs, whatever history came with the car, and one plain sentence about what you want it to be at the end. All of it is read in advance.
During: sixty or ninety minutes on a video call, going through your shed and your car in the order the jobs would actually happen.
After: a written summary, usually a couple of pages, with the sequence and the decisions set out. That is the part people pin up over the bench.
Nobody sees the car. Nothing said in a session is an opinion on its structure, its safety or its state.
No valuation, and no paper that anybody else will treat as one.
No prices for repair work. Where a job needs a number, you leave with the questions to put to a workshop, which serves you better than a guess made from photographs.
Photographs taken in daylight, the underside included if you can get at it, and the boxes open rather than stacked.
A rough note of hours per week and of what tools are already in the shed. A plan for four hours a week looks nothing like a plan for twenty.
If a workshop has already quoted, send the quote across. Reading it properly is often the whole session.
Guidance from people who work on their own cars in their own sheds. It replaces neither a qualified person looking over the car, a structural assessment, nor a workshop's written quotation.
