Core services

Four engagements, each closing with a written deliverable.

We are paid by our clients only. No dealership referral fees, no commissions, no seller introductions. Every stage below ends in a document you keep, whether or not you buy the car.

  1. 01 Evaluation

    Private vehicle evaluations

    We inspect the car and the paperwork before any money moves. Paint depth readings, service history cross-checked against the workshop stamps, VIN and registration verified in Ukraine, and a cold start followed by a drive on a route we choose rather than the one the seller suggests.

    Deliverable Condition report: photographs, measured findings, and a repair estimate you can take to any independent workshop.

  2. 02 Negotiation

    Dealership and seller communication

    We run the correspondence: the first enquiry, the specification questions, the price history, and the negotiation itself. Sellers get one consistent voice and a buyer who has already read the file, which shortens the discussion considerably.

    Deliverable Discrepancy note: every claim in the listing that did not survive inspection, with the evidence attached and the price adjustment we recommend.

  3. 03 Coordination

    Appointment coordination

    Viewings, second inspections, workshop time, and the seller meetings that follow are booked around your calendar, not the dealership's. We screen out the cars that fail the first pass so you only travel for the ones worth seeing.

    Deliverable Shortlist memo: the surviving vehicles ranked, with asking price, time on market, and what each is likely to cost once inspected.

  4. 04 Planning

    Purchase planning and handover

    Budget, financing, insurance, import duty, and registration are mapped before you commit. The firm never holds client funds and never pays the seller. Payment goes directly from you to the seller at the point we agree in advance.

    Deliverable Purchase plan: a dated sequence of steps, documents, and payment points, followed by a handover check on collection day.

Each engagement is scoped in writing before it starts. See how the method works or read the fee structure. To discuss a specific car, send us the listing.

Working method

Six steps from first brief to signed handover

Every stage closes with a written document you keep. Nothing moves forward until you approve the previous step in writing.

  1. Brief and budget frame

    We record intended use, acceptable mileage, service-history tolerance and a hard budget ceiling, then confirm which compromises you will accept and which you will not.

    Written search brief.

  2. Market scan and shortlist

    We screen dealer stock, private listings and import channels, discarding anything with an unclear ownership chain or an unexplained price gap.

    Shortlist memo with three to five candidates.

  3. Physical evaluation

    A specialist inspects paint depth, panel alignment, underbody, diagnostics history and interior wear, then cross-checks the findings against the seller's description.

    Condition report and discrepancy note.

  4. Dealership communication

    We handle calls, written questions and follow-ups on your behalf, so the seller never learns your ceiling and you are never pressed into a same-day decision.

    Negotiation log and revised price position.

  5. Purchase plan and appointment

    We set the sequence of inspection, payment, insurance and registration, book the appointment, and confirm who signs what at each point.

    Step-by-step purchase plan.

  6. Handover check

    On collection day we verify keys, documents, service records and the agreed condition list before the transaction is finalised.

    Signed handover checklist.

We are paid by our clients only. No dealership referral fees, no commissions, no hidden incentives. The firm never holds client funds and never pays the seller.

Fees and engagement

What the engagement costs, stated before you commit.

Four components, quoted in writing at the start. You approve each stage before it is billed, and we do not open work on an unapproved stage.

  2. 02 / Vehicle evaluationPer-vehicle evaluation fee

    Paperwork review, service history, seller correspondence, and a shortlist memo carrying a condition report plus a discrepancy note on every claim the listing makes.

    Of the signed purchase price, invoiced only after the handover check is delivered and the keys are in your hand. No purchase, no success fee.

    1.5% of price

We are paid by our clients only. No dealership referral commissions, no payments from sellers, and no inventory of our own. The firm never holds client funds and never pays the seller. Third-party costs such as an independent technical inspection, transport, or translation are billed separately at cost, with receipts.

Boundaries

What we do not do

The limits of the engagement matter as much as the services. They are what keep the advice honest when a seller is watching.

  • 01

    We do not sell vehicles

    Yavir holds no stock and is not a party to any sale. We assess, shortlist and negotiate on your behalf. The purchase contract is signed between you and the seller.

  • 02

    We do not hold client funds

    Money never passes through our accounts. You pay the seller directly, from your own account, against documents you have reviewed with us beforehand.

  • 03

    We do not take dealer fees

    No referral payments, no finder's fees, no commission from a dealership, importer or broker. If a seller offers us anything, we decline it in writing.

We are paid by our clients only. No dealership referral fees, no commissions from sellers, no markup added to the car. Every stage of the work ends in a written deliverable you keep, whether or not you buy the vehicle.
