The expertise of classic car: what is it?

A classic car appraisal is a meticulous and detailed examination of the vehicle, carried out by a classic car expert. The aim of the appraisal is to assess the car's condition, verify its authenticity and identify any restorations, repairs or modifications that have been carried out over the years. The classic car appraisal is carried out in several stages, including visual inspection of the car, examination of documents and invoices, analysis of mechanical and electrical systems, and verification of serial numbers and color codes.

Buyer's interest :

When buying a classic car, it's important to check the car's general condition and make sure it matches the seller's description.

A classic car appraisal enables the buyer to make an informed decision, knowing the car's strengths and weaknesses.

In fact, an expert appraisal can identify any poorly done repairs, missing parts or inappropriate restorations.

If the buyer decides to purchase the car after the appraisal, he or she can use the appraisal report to negotiate the price and request additional repairs or restorations.

Interest to the Seller:

A classic car appraisal is not only useful for the buyer, it can also be very advantageous for the seller.

Indeed, by carrying out a car survey, the seller can provide the buyer with precise and detailed information on the car's condition, which will reinforce the buyer's confidence in the transaction.

Moreover, if the expert report is positive, the seller can use it to increase the selling price of his car.
