Collector cars are cars that are purchased for reasons other than commuting. They tell a story and evoke emotions in their owners.

  • The reserve price is the minimum price the seller will accept for the car.
  • The "Buy Now" price is not the same as the reserve price and will be the best price the seller will accept for the lot and end the auction when the "Buy Now" option is submitted by a bidder.
  • One week in the "Coming Soon" section.
  • Two weeks as a "Live" auction.
  • Custom package cars can be "Live" for three weeks.
  • Although www.classiccarafrica.com is a new online auction platform, Classic Car Africa has been run by current editor Stuart Grant for 15 years. Under him, the publication has established itself as the leading source of knowledge and information for classic and collectable cars in South Africa.
  • We are advised by experienced dealers who have sold hundreds of collector cars in South Africa and the online auction platform gives us the ability to assist more clients effectively.
  • We have established relationships in the collector car community which is not serviced effectively by volume focused online listing services.
  • With the combination specialist knowledge focused on the South African collector car market and knowledge of who the collector car buyers already are in South Africa, we can get you the best price.

If your car does not sell on the online auction, your lot / car will be marketed at an agreed price level, based on auction data and bidder feedback, for four weeks.

No, www.classiccarafrica.com operates on an exclusive basis during the consignment period.
