About us

Welcome to Classic Trader - your exclusive place for exceptional vehicles.

Since our founding in 2013, we have established ourselves as the leading online platform in the international trade of classic and vintage cars. Our recipe for success? The unique combination of tradition, digital commerce, and an unsurpassed level of service.

Classic Trader is more than just a platform - we are a vibrant community of enthusiasts who share the passion for timeless collector cars. Our digital business model allows you to search for your dream car worldwide and either find the first vehicle for your collection or expand your existing one.

As a sign of our commitment to automotive culture, Classic Trader not only publishes its own high-quality print magazine but also offers an informative online magazine in German and English to keep you up to date. However, our range of services goes beyond just trading. With our inspection service CT Inspections, we ensure transparency, while our classic and vintage car warranty CT Warranty provides the necessary security. At Classic Trader, the customer is at the center. Our customer orientation is reflected in every step - from the search for your dream car to the successful completion of the transaction. We rely on trust and provide a platform where international buyers and sellers can feel secure.

Experience the fascination of timeless classics with Classic Trader.
