The challenge
Classic car purchases are a matter of trust
A classic car changes hands, often for a five- or six-figure sum. Buyer and seller may not know each other personally, and the vehicle may be in another country. Who pays first? Who hands over first?
This is where our escrow service comes in. As a neutral third party, we protect both sides and turn a risky transaction into a secure one.
How it works
Our escrow process in five steps
Clearly defined, transparent and fair to both parties.
Inspection & evaluation
We check the vehicle, its condition and documentation. If required, we arrange an independent appraisal.
Escrow agreement
Both parties receive a transparent escrow agreement. The process begins only after it has been signed.
Secure completion
Funds and vehicle are released only when all conditions have been met. No risk for buyer or seller.
Handover & transport
The vehicle is handed over professionally and, on request, transported directly to you.
