I offer practical help with buying a car and reducing risks. You can start with a remote consultation, continue with a car background check (documents and background in order before you go to view the car), and if needed we can go on site together for a test drive and inspection.
Choose the service according to where you are in your car search – you get a clear direction, a concrete action plan and support for making the decision.
A remote consultation is suitable for you if you are buying a used car and want an independent view before making a decision. In the service, we go through one car or several options together, compare listings and I highlight the things you should pay attention to before you go to view the car or make a deal.
a. Book the service
You book the remote consultation below. After booking, you will receive a preliminary form by email where you tell me about your situation, your budget and any car candidates.
b. Background work and analysis
Based on the form, I do the background work and look for options that match your specific needs. This allows us to focus on what matters in the remote consultation, not on searching for information.
c. Remote consultation (approx. 60 min)
In the remote meeting, we calmly go through my observations and the options: which car is a sensible choice, what risks are involved and what you should pay attention to before making the purchase decision.

Do you want to check the car’s background before you go to view it or make the purchase decision? In this service, I check the car’s background information and create a clear PDF summary for you, where you can quickly see the most relevant risks and get a ready-made list of questions for the seller.
I check, among other things, the following items in the background check (to the extent that the information is available):
After purchasing the service, you will receive an email with a link to the form. Fill in the following information in the form:
Delivery time
PDF within 24 hours on business days from the moment the required information (registration number + link, and any attachments) has been received.
The service is based on available information and the documents provided. It does not replace a test drive or physical inspection and is not a guarantee of the car’s condition. The final purchase decision is always the customer’s.
Once the remote consultation has been completed and options have been found – or if you have found an interesting car yourself but want to make sure of its condition – this service is for you.
I come on site and we go through the car together, step by step. If you wish, I can also go and view the car independently. After the visit, you will receive a clear and honest summary by phone – what I found, what you should watch out for and whether I think the car is worth buying.
If you find it difficult to choose between several options, we can also look at multiple cars. The test drives are carried out one after another on the same day. The cars should be located in the same area so that the transfers between them remain short (maximum approx. 10 km).
Remember to make sure the cars are still available before ordering the test drive!

I have no connection to the car dealership and I do not benefit from the sale in any way. This means that I assess the car solely with your best interests in mind. I will tell you honestly if the car has risks, hidden faults or reasons why it may not be worth buying.
This is also important because emotions can easily take over when buying a car. In that moment, it is easy to notice only the good sides and forget to look for the flaws. My job is to keep a cool head and make sure you do not make the decision based only on feeling.
A car salesperson often has a financial incentive to sell the car as quickly as possible. I do not. I assess the car as carefully as if I were buying it myself: calmly, thoroughly and without rushing. You can trust that all my attention is on the car’s real condition, not on closing the deal.
With years of experience and experience driving hundreds of different cars, I notice abnormal noises, vibrations, drivetrain delays, suspension issues and other signs that may point to future repairs. I test the car in different conditions and at different speeds so that you get an overall picture of how it drives and what risks may be involved.
I also help you have a realistic and objective price discussion with the seller. Often even a small discount can cover a large part of the cost of the service, sometimes even the full amount. You have an experienced partner with you in the negotiation, someone who understands the car’s real value and when the price no longer matches the condition.
You save time and effort because you do not have to go and look at poor options yourself. I assess the car’s condition in advance, so you quickly know whether it is worth going to see. You get a clear summary of the car, its condition and possible risks, and you can make a decision quickly and confidently. My goal is that you do not have to waste a single moment on bad options.
I do not use complicated technical language unless it is necessary. You get a clear, straightforward and understandable assessment of the car’s condition, what is good and what you should be prepared for. I tell things as they are: without sugar-coating, without exaggerating, just honestly.
I offer a limited number of free remote consultations in exchange for honest feedback about the service. After the consultation, I will ask you for short feedback, and if you wish, also a short recommendation that I may use anonymously or with your name on the website.
