Maximise your performance car ownership

For people who want to find the right car
and get the most from their ownership

Welcome

Meet Tom Gaunt

I've spent 12 years buying, selling and Helping other people With Their performance cars.

Now I'm writing it all down.

Most advice on buying a Porsche, protecting your paint, or finding your next weekend drive comes from people trying to sell you something. 

I’ve built three businesses providing these services, so I can give you real advice from within the industry using my experience.

I didn’t start with a showroom. I started buying and selling cars because I wanted to provide the kind of experience that I would expect to receive myself. 

From there it grew to include social events, driving tours and finally a car care business.

My love of cars began as a child, a passion passed to me by my father Alan.

I’ve made all the expensive mistakes, so you don’t have to.

Every week I’ll send you the stuff I’d tell you over a coffee, not just waffle that gets me a sale.

My Driving Tours

There’s more to owning a great car than keeping it on the driveway. 

My driving tours bring together the best roads, unforgettable experiences together with people who share your enthusiasm.

Our CLUB HOUSE brand, draws on the same approach I bring to everything else: the details matter, but enjoying yourself is the most important thing.

The S.P.E.E.D Framework

How to identify the right car that suits your requirements, a car you will actually use and get value from. 

I can help source the very best example to suit your budget, not just the first one that shows up online.

Explaining what separates a genuine low-mileage GT3 from one with a story someone’s not telling you.

What paint protection film (PPF), ceramic coatings and warranty products are actually worth having.

Protecting your investment and also covering the potential downside are key to getting the most from your car with peace of mind.

This is when you begin to get the most from the car you have bought. 

For ten years I’ve been organising events to give you a reason to get the car out and meet new people.

There’s more to ownership than a car sat on a driveway. Driving tours, track days, and the community side some owners never find.

The details that keeps a performance car reliable and available when you need it, servicing, storage, insurance, the decisions that protect your investment.

We all love change from time to time and cars are no different. 

When the time comes, I can advise on when and how to move on to the next car without leaving money on the table doing it.

If I know what your next move is, our team can spend time in the background finding the right fit for when the time is right.
