Trade Classics Reviews 

Good clear advertising and prompt response made do a cry easy transaction
I’m really enjoying the RV8 I purchased

Great honest communication from the start, the photographer they sent round was brilliant and took some great shots.
Made the whole process of selling my Porsche really easy.
They also achieved the money I was after.

Some months ago, I decided to sell my classic Mini Cooper Sport 500. I searched around for the best place to sell it and found Trade Classics. After speaking to them on the phone the wheels were set in motion. From meeting the vehicle consigner to the close of the auction the whole experience was fun and painless. I would recommend them to anyone, great company.

Needed to sell a unique classic and Trade Classics really stepped up to help and got it sold.

Photography side was really good and the advert itself was very detailed. There was a slight issue with mileage details and time to upload adverts in other platforms Vs the short length of time the car was in auction. Communication back and forth around this was prompt and the car did sell, although slightly lower than I wanted, Trade Classics did all they could to try and increase the final total.

Overall they were easy to did with a present well, I would recommend them and they only get a 1 star off for the hiccups with my individual advert, though things did get sorted.

Absolutely delighted with the whole process; the initial enquiry, the professionalism of the photographer and then the sales process . Highly highly recommended

I bid and won my car, a most enjoyable experience, most impressive was the professional way that this company deals with the whole process from beginning to end, I dealt with Kulraj, who I think is the founder, he was great to work with. Since winning my car I watch Trade Classics almost daily, looking for my next classic.

Tony called me and sold me the dream. No costs we will sell the car. As soon as I said yes he’s trying to get me to pay £300 for a photographer to come out.

This is how all classic cars should be bought and sold !. Sold my lovely Bmw 325i with trade classics- the whole experience was seamless and stress free. I cannot recommend them enough. The professional photographer did a fantastic job accurately documenting the vehicle.
The Bmw achieved the price that I wanted. Such a refreshing experience compared to selling my previous cars privately when I was having lots of time wasters and dreamers coming to see the car and offer silly offers. Trade classics obviously attracts discerning buyers who appreciate quality cars.. will definitely be using them in the future. Dan Nicholls

Hi
I have recently purchased a Morgan 4/4
through your auction site .
What a great experience I am so pleased with the car I purchased and the complete process.
Who would ever recommend buying a car without seeing it or driving it
WELL I WOULD!!
I feel as if I have had a great deal and definitely not disappointed when I first saw the car
Couldn’t believe how lucky I was
Thanks so much
I want to buy another car now
Thanks again

Tried to sell my 996 through these guys. The auction didn’t reach anywhere near the reserve price let alone the hammer price they speculated.

Various excuses were given such as IMS needs done, the wheels are dirty (?!?!!?), the buyers are very discerning, blah blah blah. Obviously they don’t mention this until after you’ve paid your £240 for the professional photos and write up….

I listed on CarandClassic shortly afterwards, and it sold without any issues.

TradeClassics do talk a good game however a lot of their cars go unsold. Ultimately they just don’t have the buyer network

Thanks for you response, however it is fair to say that a number of the cars on auction at Trade Classics don't hit their reserve value and therefore go unsold.

Furthermore I don't think there is a physical cost to a listing on eBay and Pistonheads, thus I question the validity of your comment regarding the loss made.

Lydia, Adam, Glyn and Kulraj have been so helpful with every step and made selling the car so easy, especially when I have no idea about selling cars and didn’t really know where to start.

They were honest, transparent, non-pushy and went above and beyond to help get a car which had been in storage for 2 years back on the road and looking beautiful. I can't thank them enough.

The buyer collected the car on Sunday and hopefully will get lots of enjoyment from it.

Chad and the team were brilliant and persevered to sell my car to a credible and trustworthy buyer. Thank you! Also made a profit! Better than buy any car etc and less hassle :)

I would just like to thank Kulraj and all the staff at "Trade Classics" for helping me find the car I have been waiting for. The standard of photography and video in the auction description was second to none. Such was the faith I had in the company that with Kulrajs help and the help of Harjit the seller, I was confident to bid on the car and fly from Ireland to collect it and then drive it 300 miles to the ferry in Cairnryan to bring it back home. The car looked amazing and was actually better in the flesh. A seamless transaction from start to finish. I would highly recommend doing business with them in the complete confidence that the car was presented properly with no stone unturned in the description. I look forward to doing business again with them in future. 5⭐ plus.

It was refreshing to deal with a company that were knowledgeable about cars so making discussions regarding values more open and honest. The process of selling from start to finish was handled very professionally and I was kept informed throughout at every stage of the process. I would have no hesitation in recommending Trade Classics and look forward to doing business with them in the future.

the write up states
"Overall, the standard of paintwork on this car looks excellent", when the car was delivered the paint had hundreds off pin specks all over the car now few month later its bubbling up and coming away looks in many places like a rash, needs complete respray.
The tyres look in good condition the tyres where green you can actually see this in the picture video its like mould living on the tyre cannot clean back to black
"the chrome looks excellent" full of scratches like its been dragged on the floor
all of the above should of been spotted by the accessor who videos the car especially the paintwork which requires a full respray (£3000 up )

Very impressed with all aspects of the service. It is easy to think that you can achieve a sale of a high-value used vehicle by marketing it online yourself on one of the available portals. That would be to underestimate the distinct ways in which Trade Classics/Modern Performance can help. In my case I am certain their listing process added value by maximizing the final achieved price, and making the whole process as smooth and seamless as possible. The final handover process, and payment of funds by the buyer, was straightforward and stress-free as a result.

Excellent photography, kept well informed, well scribed description, nice people to communicate with and most importantly my car sold over estimate!! I cant believe it, the photographer spent 5hrs with my car to ensure the very best quality, well done!!

Very easy process, easy to contact people with any queries you have. Would recommend as this site reaches real purchases and not tyre kickers.

Very professional honest company, gave me good honest advice regarding the sale of my car. Would recommend them to anyone.

A well organised, efficient and professional arrangement of the sale of my classic Mercedes.
