COOL RUNNINGS THE BUSINESS OF SELLING THE RARE AND EXTRAORDINARY
I
T’S A FAIRLY well-accepted theory that in the COVID era - during which uncertainty about the future has paired with the abrupt halt of being able to spend big on, for example, expensive holidays abroad many more people than usual have looked to spend their money on things like home renovations or the nostalgic thrills to be found in owning and enjoying a classic car. The result has been something of a boom in the classic car market. Australian-made vehicles have enjoyed a particularly buoyant time with tremendous auction prices
“OLDTIMER AUSTRALIA IS A VERY BOUTIQUE CLASSIC CAR BUSINESS. OUR NICHE WOULD BE ENGLISH AND EUROPEAN SPORTING CARS OF THE ’50S THROUGH ’90S, THOUGH WE DO, FROM TIME TO TIME, MOVE OUTSIDE OF THAT SPACE . . .”
