COLLECTING CARS
At our heart we are enthusiasts and would always look to advise any would be collector to buy cars that you are likely to drive and that will tug the heartstrings every time you see them. If the car happens to go up in value then all the better for it, but one thing is guaranteed you will enjoy your collection to the full.
However if the key driver is return on investment then you must walk into the marketplace armed with the right knowledge and expertise giving the best possibility of a healthy return from a solid asset.
The best car collections often have a theme and executed correctly the fact that a car is part of a specific collection can lend value to the individual asset, additional provenance if you like. A theme could reside around a number of things whether it be a specific era or marque, a motorsport theme or even a specific colour – it really is down to the collector.
When acquiring the individual assets the collector should focus on originality, provenance and acquiring the better examples available. So much value can be found in owing the right example of a specific car versus one with a story.
The knowledge and experience of Tangible, coupled with their global network of collectors and dealers provides the necessary guidance to would-be investors.
