PROVENANCE FILELOT PATHSFOUR SALE PATHS · CHOOSE WITH US
DIFFERENT TIMELINES · DIFFERENT FEES
Four paths.
Different by design.
Faster paths involve some price compromise. Slower paths require the right buyer relationship. Auction is the right answer when the vehicle is high-profile enough to command global attention; sometimes it isn't. We recommend honestly.
PATH-02MOST COMMON
Discreet consignment.
8 — 24 weeks · max realization
We sell on your behalf. Vehicle remains in your name until sale. Best for: vehicles requiring time to find right buyer, premium-priced vehicles, sellers wanting maximum realization.
FEE6 — 10% on completed sale
PATH-03
Discreet brokerage.
4 — 12 weeks · between known parties
We connect your vehicle with a specific qualified buyer (often from our existing relationships). Best for: vehicles unsuited to public listing, very high-value vehicles, urgent confidentiality.
FEE8 — 10% on completed sale
PATH-04
Auction-house alternative.
3 — 6 months · we don't take a fee
If auction is the right path, we recommend specific houses + advise on timing + reserve pricing + presentation. Sometimes auction is the right answer.

PROVENANCE FILELOT FITWHAT FITS · WHAT DOESN'T · 6 ITEMS
What fits
Ferrobello.
We're honest about what we don't take. Modern vehicles still under warranty go elsewhere; salvage-titled vehicles go elsewhere; sub-$50K usually goes elsewhere. When we decline, we'll tell you who's a better fit.
Italian · British · German specialty
Ferrari · Maserati · Lancia · Alfa · Aston · Jaguar · Bentley · Rolls · Porsche · Mercedes · BMW M-cars. Our specialty + buyer base.
Pre-war coachwork specials
Bugatti · Delahaye · Hispano-Suiza · Talbot-Lago · Duesenberg. Selectively acquired through our European + American networks. Discreet brokerage typical.
#1 — #3 condition typically
Concours · excellent · driver-quality. Some #4 where restoration partnership makes economic sense. Below #4 we usually decline.
Above $50K typically
Below $50K usually not economic for our brokerage model + buyer base. Exception: youngtimer specialty (manual Porsches, M3s, F355s) where established collectibility supports lower prices.
Authenticated provenance
Documented ownership chain · matching numbers (or honestly disclosed corrected) · service records · concours appearances. We can help reconstruct partial provenance.
What we typically decline
Modern vehicles still under manufacturer warranty · project vehicles requiring full restoration without partnership · salvage-titled vehicles · replicas without disclosure. Honest in declining.
PROVENANCE FILELOT ESTATEESTATE · WHEN CIRCUMSTANCES REQUIRE CARE
Estate.
Sensitive work.
Recent loss · divorce · business dissolution · illness · charitable disposition. We've handled estate sales for ~30+ deceased collectors + 12+ business dissolutions. References available from estate attorneys + heirs we've worked with.
Confidential conversation
Initial conversation entirely confidential. We've handled recent loss, divorce, business dissolution, illness. Experienced + discreet. Our role is service, not closing pressure.
Multi-vehicle estate dispersal
Some collections include 3 — 50+ vehicles. Phased sales over 1 — 3 years to optimize realization + tax efficiency. Coordinated with estate attorneys + financial advisors.
Working with executors + heirs
Executors with little vehicle knowledge — we'll patiently explain process + market dynamics + decision points. Estate attorneys collaborate well with our team.
Charitable donations
Donations to museums, automotive education programs, scholarship-funding nonprofits. Tax-favored. Recipient evaluation + receipt + documentation handled.
