Preservation of Motorcars

Commercial Services:

With the ever-adapting trading environment, in particular, the car industry companies may seek ways to reduce their overheads over the coming years.

  • Based down South and require an Automotive base up North?
  • Have you undertaken a Commercial contract yourself, but do not possess any Automotive knowledge?
  • No time or desire to call around or deal with small Business owners?
  • Without the added Business pressures such as high rents, extended leases. Mainly, the ability to coordinate a project efficiently from the start? 

 If you are a larger business, with busy schedules, fast-paced, struggling to meet demand - Talk to us.

We usually find a solution fairly quickly.

There are units available that can take in 52 cars immediately. Available in the Midlands, Gloucestershire, Yorkshire, South West, Essex and Greater London areas. All are indoors, dry and secure. Some are temperature-controlled. Some provide additional Automotive services.

March 2025, 360 immediate spaces - these are all indoor and secure.

The number of available spaces goes up and down in fairness, and so does location availability. 

Preparation & Maintenance:

We have witnessed and advised companies on the benefits of their own car servicing shop on-site. Thereby, a handful of car storage facilities not only conduct (should be conducting) warm-ups, tire checks as part of a general maintenance plan offered to the public.

Some vehicle storage facilities we work with now have on-site repair shops or other trusted, beneficial third-party services. We can provide a commercial client, depending on location, the ability for a one-stop shop, which is useful for certain situations.

  • We have active clients on board who provide these services.
  • Businesses on our books & prospects.
  • Past clients we've worked with.
  • People on a database from when contact was made.

Each unit (storage owner) possesses a slightly different Automotive background. Car sales, a couple began their careers in valeting, connections to motorsport, and others who began as mechanics, offering car repairs and servicing.

A chap who was an engineer for Jaguar back in the 90's, a test driver for XJ220 who simply owned a family estate.

We also come across individuals who purchased estates for their retirement plan that possess a small number of classic cars. 

Vehicle Emission Scandal:

This contract is under legal dispute between a UK Criminal lawyer and a very well-known prestigious manufacturer brand. We are awaiting to hear back in order to provide our case information. Some serious breaches were unearthed.

So far we co-operated professionally with the US testing team. We put together the spec as this was something the Criminal lawyer failed to do when they contacted us or our recommended units. They sought to take advantage of both our services and the storage facility. But this goes much deeper. Luckily, we stepped in to query before terminating services with the lawyer. 

Interestingly, the lawyer must advertise how they've obtained funding to hire the best Barristers in the country? Odd really, you'd think with 800 solicitors, one would be competent enough, unless somethings a miss!? I wonder what they're trying to cover up.

This is where the Advisory knowledge of the creator truly comes to fruition. A decade of involvement in highly complex, often troubled companies, he'd seen it all before.  

This is why suppliers choose us because they know they'll receive ethical standards.

Also, in fairness there are no other companies in the UK like us - National experience, efficient process development to streamline. 

Why Choose Us?

There are a some great well-known companies that do provide an excellent vehicle storage service, are highly trusted, however the accountants may not be happy at paying £450+ per month excluding Vat for a single indoor storage bay, when perhaps a similar, less well-known place can be found for less. Also, in many situations a single storage facility can not cope with demand. Some companies are full, almost full year-round - they offer a great package and take care of their clients well, so they can't handle anything of commercial capacity.

A company, such as a busy Solicitor can handle most processes remotely. No need to come to a unit each time. No need to call around trying to find suitable companies. 

Save yourself the time and trouble of calling around. 

  • We provide the spaces.
  • Handle communications with the companies.
  • Monitor and manage proceedings.
  • Share our knowledge of the Industry with you.
  • Develop a process from the beginning to limit risk. 

Not all of the companies have the space or permission to accommodate. Not all companies want Commercial work. Not all Business owners are suitable to deliver a Commercial opportunity.

We focus on finding the right type of Automotive Business, in the right area, at the correct market and regional price. Contact Us
