There are two types: the Standard CSR, a 200 point check covering mechanical, bodywork, running gear, electrical and aesthetic. It will check not only condition but also our experts will comment on originality- this can make a huge difference to the value of a classic car. The CSR Max has all this but also more detailed engine and running gear checks, and historical research which is beautifully bound into a presentation booklet, excellent for helping to sell a great car.  

We have recruited specialists from all over the UK to do the checks, and we call them our Associates. Every one must meet high standards of workmanship and customer service, and between them they have hundreds of years worth of experience. We have experts in pretty much every make of car you care to mention: from ash-framed vintage Bentley to retro-sport Fords. Some will travel to inspect cars, but all are experts in their own right.
