Bastin MitchellVehicle recycling. Commercial.£195 ranking

The group

A consultancy that builds and runs its own software.

Bastin Mitchell Ltd is a commercial consultancy specialising in vehicle recycling. Two software companies sit underneath it. They are here because they prove the advice comes from someone who ships, not because anything on this page is for sale.

Who you are dealing with

Simon Bastin-Mitchell

Twenty-plus years in UK vehicle recycling and end-of-life vehicles, in commercial management roles with revenue and margin growth at scale. He ran the eBay operation at two UK vehicle recyclers, and grew both.

He builds the tools he would otherwise be recommending: a five-route pricing engine for ELVs, a benchmark of 30 recyclers on eBay that refreshes weekly, and an AI assessment platform for businesses outside the trade. Based in Hampshire, UK, working across the UK and Ireland.
