Classic Car Register

The Classic Car Register is a groundbreaking initiative bringing professional provenance verification to the classic car world. Built on over 30 years of experience in due diligence and asset tracking through the Art Loss Register, it provides a trusted digital database of verified historic vehicle records. Thousands of hard-copy files from auction catalogues, club archives, publishers and private collections have been digitised, creating an unparalleled research tool for collectors, traders and enthusiasts.

By documenting a car’s full story – from ownership and restoration to competition history and specification changes – The Classic Car Register helps establish authenticity, enhance value and offer peace of mind to buyers and sellers alike. As the value of historic vehicles rises, verified provenance is essential; inconsistencies or missing records can significantly diminish a car’s worth.

The Register brings the same rigour long established in the art world to the motoring community, encouraging transparency and helping to deter fraud. Whether investigating a rare Gullwing Mercedes or a humble MG Midget, users can now access a trusted source of positive data that reinforces a vehicle’s credentials. In doing so, The Classic Car Register raises standards across the industry and strengthens confidence in the global collector car market.
