Independent business vehicle help
Tell me what the vehicle needs to do. I’ll look across
manufacturers, explain the funding solutions and help arrange
the right business car, van or custom build.
Across manufacturers. Not tied to one badge.
What I handle
A business vehicle can involve a dealer, a funder and sometimes a converter before it is ready for work. I keep those conversations together and come back to you with what needs a decision.
I start with where the vehicle goes, what it carries and how long you expect to keep it, then explain the leasing solution that fits.
When I worked at Peugeot in 2016, customers kept asking me for Transits I couldn’t supply. That’s partly why I started ARH: one manufacturer’s range isn’t always the answer.
Some vans need more than colour and trim. I’ve arranged window vans and a grounds-maintenance build with a wire cage, bringing the vehicle and conversion into the same conversation.
Sometimes a question needs proper time, like comparing several solutions or working through a bigger change. We agree what the session covers and what it costs before you book, and you pay upfront so everybody knows where they stand.
Why I started ARH
At Peugeot, customers would ask me for vehicles I couldn’t supply, Transits included. Going out on my own in 2017 meant I could look across manufacturers and a broader range of funders, then steer a client away from the wrong option when that was the honest answer.
I still keep the business small on purpose. I handle the client conversations, with a couple of people helping with the admin in the background.
After you ring
There’s no call centre and no hand-off. I ask enough to understand the job, do the research and come back when there’s something useful to discuss.
Start with what you’re replacing, what has changed and the date the vehicle needs to be working, knowing the first conversation is free and you can leave it there without taking it any further.
I check the manufacturers, suppliers and funding solutions that make sense for the brief. If a custom build is involved, I speak to the converter as well.
I explain what I’ve found, including the catches. If you want to go ahead, I manage the order through to delivery; if you don’t, that’s where it ends.
Client words
Andy is very approachable, he listens to you and then advises on vehicles that best meet your requirements. I have used ARH 5 times now to match our business needs and will definitely use his services again. He is definitely an expert in his field.
Before you call
How I’m paid, whether the first conversation turns into sales calls, and who I’m set up to help.
Read all the FAQsYou tell me what has prompted the search, what the vehicle does and any deadline already in the diary. I’ll ask questions, tell you whether it is something I can help with and explain the next sensible step. That first conversation is free.
Once a vehicle is ordered, I charge an arrangement fee through ARH and receive commission from the funder. If you book a Power Hour, that’s agreed and paid for upfront instead. I’ll tell you what applies before you decide anything.
No. If I have something useful to add, I’ll get in touch; if you decide not to continue, I won’t keep pushing. My business depends on clients coming back for the next vehicle, not wearing them down after the first call.
Most of my clients are owner-run businesses with roughly 1 to 25 cars or vans, where the vehicle decision still lands with the owner. That isn’t a hard boundary. If the job sits outside my scope, I’ll say so.
No hard sell
The services, client comments and FAQs are here so you can work out whether I’m the right person to help. When you’re ready, call or email me and I’ll pick it up from there.
