Unlocking the investment potential of classic cars with The Car Crowd

28 February 2022

We’re excited to be partnering with a new and innovative classic car investment company based in Nottinghamshire.

Whether you’re a speculator, an accumulator, or just a wistful, classic enthusiast dreamer, Lancaster Insurance is delighted to launch a partnership with The Car Crowd.

If you’ve ever dreamed of owning a classic, but have been put off by the expenditure, maybe this is the way to go. The Car Crowd, run by David and Kirsty Spickett, offer you the chance to invest in a classic car in the country’s first classic car investment platform.

“We’re delighted to have Lancaster as a preferred Insurance partner.” says David. “We’re trying to get the message out there that we’ve got an investment opportunity that’s good fun and a working asset.”

Car Crowd

By joining The Car Crowd, you get the chance to buy shares in a classic of your choice, to earn revenue when it’s put to work or by enjoying the increase in value year on year.

“There’s the full range of cars available each comprising 1,000 shares, so for example, a recent Mini Cooper S JCW cost £8 a share, while a Lotus Carlton is trading at £65 a share.”

So how does it work?

Simply select a car from the digital showroom. Buy your shares, and track Car Crowd events to go and view your investment at car shows up and down the country. You can also vote to sell the car or list your shares on a special bulletin board.

You can benefit from the car’s appreciation value and receive dividends from paid PR, promotional or TV work. Remember investment values can go down as well as up.

You can even visit the vibrant Car Crowd Café in Edingley, decorated with Lancaster banners, to meet and swap notes and a crowded events calendar that can be viewed online.

If you’re a classic enthusiast with an eye for an opportunity, then The Car Crowd may just be the place for you. “We’re calling it the first petrol-head owned motor museum”, says David.
