Would you have expected over 300,000 classic and vintage cars to be registered in Switzerland? There is hardly any other country where so many classic collector's cars are collected, maintained and driven in relation to the population. Their total book value is comparable to the annual sales of new cars. This means that the classic car market is an economic factor that should not be underestimated and in which information about the correct market value plays an important role.
In the classic car scene, there has only been one market report in recent decades, which provided country-specific market quotations not only for Switzerland, but also for continental Europe, the UK and the USA. In mid-2017, the "InterClassic" market report from Eurotax was discontinued, to the surprise of many classic car enthusiasts. Since then, market participants have been waiting for an equivalent offering that broadens the horizon beyond the purely national classic car market.
Great demand for qualified market listings
Surveys of exhibitors at national classic car and parts fairs over the last two years have shown that there is a need for qualified market listings, especially in Swiss francs. These responses prompted the former editors of "InterClassic" to consider the idea of a contemporary successor product. As a result, the decision was made to found the company CarepO GmbH at the end of 2018 and to commission the development of the Classic Car Report website.
The international market observation of classic collector's cars comprises well over 100 brands and more than 6,000 types, spanning the period from the 1920s to the end of the 20th century and covering all major producing countries. What's in it for you as a professional expert or private enthusiast? The combination of decades of collecting vehicle data and decades of observing the classic car market gives you the certainty of being able to access up-to-date and reliable market quotations for every young and classic car.
Quotations for various markets and currencies
As a Swiss company, we naturally attach great importance to in-depth observation of the Swiss market. In addition, we follow trading activity in Europe and the USA and therefore also publish market quotations in EUR, GBP and USD, as the market for classic collector's vehicles has always had an international focus.
This unique selling point should help us to successfully implement our mission "Your classic car, our reliable values".
