A few useful answers

You 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.

I arrange cars as well as vans. The client comments on this site cover both, including a Citroen Berlingo van and a car supplied for Jon Hebbes. What suits your business depends on the work, the drivers and the way the vehicle will be used.

I can organise custom-build work alongside the vehicle. Previous jobs include a grounds-maintenance van with a wire cage and window vans, while Andy Sexton of Bike Science Ltd describes his own experience on the Success Stories page.

I can raise the vehicle questions that are worth checking, but I’m not your accountant. Tax and accounting treatment can depend on your business, the agreement and the way the vehicle is used, so your accountant should confirm those points before you sign.

A useful recommendation needs some context. I need to know what the vehicle is for, how it will be used and what matters to the business before narrowing the options. That can’t be done honestly with a generic price card.

No. Start with the work the vehicle needs to do, what has changed and any deadline already in the diary. Working out which car or van fits is part of the conversation.

Yes. A vehicle may involve a dealer, a funder and sometimes a converter. I can speak to the people involved, keep an eye on the dates and come back to you with the decisions that need your attention.

A Power Hour is a paid session for a vehicle question that needs focused work of its own. I agree what the session needs to cover and what it will cost before it is booked, with payment taken upfront.

Yes. The first conversation is free and you can leave it there. If I research the brief and you decide not to go ahead after hearing the options, that is where it ends.

I’ll say so. I built ARH around clients coming back for the next vehicle, so a sensible reason to wait is more useful than pushing through an order that does not suit the business.

I currently use phone and email rather than WhatsApp. Call me on 0117 332 9664 or email andy@arhvs.uk and your message will come directly to me.
