No worries
The idea is that we provide a legal and support framework for people wishing to enter a shared ownership agreement.
We do all of the paperwork to enable a legally binding contract, and then manage the storage, servicing and repairs. You book your time slot, get to the storage centre, drive around for a bit, then bring it back. We do the rest.
We make our cut by doing deals with storage facilities/mechanics/tyre suppliers/track owners etc. to get a small discount - and we pocket the difference.
So yes - you do actually own (a share) of the car. It benefits us, as there is no startup capital required, and therefore little to no risk.
Anyone could sell a share in their own car - but they'd need to get a whole load of legal contracts in place first, and would have to rely completely on trust that the other person was an honest type.
