With considerable experience in collector car transactions, both in the UK and internationally, the Healys Classic & Collector Car Group has the necessary expertise and the network of specialist contacts to advise on all aspects of car collecting.
Our dedicated solicitors are keen enthusiasts of the industry and understand the importance of a smooth and efficient transaction. Whether your purchase is a classic car, prestige model, supercar or race car, we can offer you assistance and guidance through every stage of the acquisition.
How We Can Help
Our acquisition service covers:
• Status of the parties – clarification of all entities involved in a car sale or purchase to include; buyer, seller, borrower, lender, principal or agent
• History & provenance – to ensure the history as represented fits the acquisition and there are no other competing cars with similar history
• Title – to confirm party has ownership of the vehicle and that it can be legally bought, and that historic differences are checked on race cars that have never been registered
• Documentation – to protect your interest on a transaction through the drafting and reviewing of essential terms such as the warranty, declarations, and guarantees
• Inspection – specialist valuations from marque and model experts
• Enquiries – review of outstanding finance or unpaid customs duties/VAT
• Finance and security documentation – checks to see if borrowing has been taken out on the car, in case a person is borrowing money to purchase
• Transactions & deliveries – arrangements for the payment of funds and delivery of the vehicle on completion of purchase or sale
