How to pawn a classic car

Your car is assessed by our specialists and network of car experts. If your car meets our lending criteria and you accept our offer, it is kept in secure storage in a specialist car storage facility and returned when the loan is settled.

Getting your classic car to us

In person

For cars, submit your enquiry online first so we can work towards a preliminary valuation. From there, we will liaise with you, and if you would prefer to bring the car in, you can drive it to one of our storage facilities and meet a member of our team there.

From home

If you cannot or would rather not travel, your car can be collected by one of our specialist logistics partners, where it will be fully insured against theft, damage and wear in transit. If your car is already held in a storage facility, please let us know, as we may be able to keep it there for the duration of the loan rather than moving it.

Valuing your classic car

Our valuations team, supported by a network of independent auction house car specialists, give you an accurate, up-to-date valuation. We consider five key factors:

  • Make and model: the make, model and year of your classic, vintage or luxury car is a major driver of value
  • Ownership history and provenance: previous owners, sale records and how long you have owned it all help us value your car
  • Restoration and maintenance: a full service history adds value, while restoration work that is not to a high standard can reduce it
  • Condition: major scratches, marks, dents or damage to the mechanics can all affect the value
  • Market value: we consider current supply and demand, alongside recent comparable sales at auction

We also carry out an HPI check on every car as part of our due diligence to check if there is any outstanding finance on the vehicle.

How we care for your car

While your car is with us, it is in safe hands, our reputation depends on it. Every loan is given a unique reference number, so your car is always identifiable and accounted for. It is kept at one of a select number of premium specialist car storage facilities across the country, where it remains for the duration of the loan and is routinely checked and examined.

Your car receives monthly start-ups, battery checks and basic cleaning, and where needed, it is stored in a dehumidified, temperature-controlled facility. Everything is catalogued, and our loan inventory is regularly audited, so your car is returned to you in the same condition we received it.

Classic car lending

Reasons for loaning on cars

The main reasons clients borrow against their classic or prestige cars. Collectors, enthusiasts and business owners can all benefit.

Access funds ahead of an auction sale

If you plan to sell your car, we can advance you the money now and handle the sale at auction on your behalf, even if that is months away. Ideal for owners selling a car or those who have inherited one.

Fund your next car purchase

Put the value in a car you already own towards buying another, whether at auction or privately. Ideal for collectors and enthusiasts looking to grow their collections.

Ease liquidity challenges

Release capital tied up in your car to cover a personal or business need, such as a tax bill, without parting with it. Ideal for business owners and private individuals.

Release the value in your car

A significant share of your wealth may sit in a prestige or classic car. Borrowing against it frees up money for short term use elsewhere. Ideal for collectors.

Tips for borrowing on classic cars

A few practical tips to help you get the most from your classic car loan, and to receive a preliminary offer as quickly as possible. The more information you can share, the quicker the process.

Be realistic about value

Classic car values move with the market, so the price you paid may differ from today's. Our offers reflect current auction values.

Gather your paperwork

Please provide the service history, MOT certificate, original V5, number plate and details of any restoration work.

Consider a sale advance

If you are looking to sell your car, a sale advance lets us place it through the right channel at the right time to maximise its value, while you receive your money today.

Know your car's specification

Details like the model year, mileage, engine and any rare or original features all influence the valuation, so have them to hand.

YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about borrowing against your luxury assets.

Which are the best bad credit car lenders ?

The best bad credit car lenders focus on the vehicle purely as the loan security rather than your personal credit profile. A car pawnbroker like us can offer secured loans against cars with no credit check, making us a great alternative to traditional lenders for clients with bad credit.

Why pawn your luxury or classic car?

Instead of having your vehicle stored away in your garage, you can use it to get immediate, short term car finance without needing to sell. The loan is secured against your vehicle, which remains under your ownership for the duration of the loan. Clients often approach us because traditional financing options cannot provide funding quickly enough to allow them to meet an immediate deadline or take advantage of an opportunity.

What is the difference between a car loan vs a personal loan?

A loan against a car is based on the vehicle’s value, typically offering higher borrowing amounts than personal loans for cars or a bank loan for cars. Personal loans rely heavily on credit checks, while car pawn loans are secured against the vehicle.

Where can I pawn my car for cash near me ?

We offer discreet, centrally located London appointments and a nationwide car pawn service. Our team provides fast valuations and same day funds, specialising in classic car pawn in London.

What is required to pawn my classic car?

To proceed, we will ask for the following:

  • A copy of the full service history, MOT certificate, and original V5
  • Full details of any restoration work carried out
  • 2 working keys
  • The car must be in good condition
  • You must own the car outright with no outstanding finance
  • 2 forms of identification, such as a driving licence or passport
  • Recent utility bill (proof of address)
  • Insurance certificate

What is a car consignment ?

Selling a car on consignment is when you place your vehicle with a specialist dealer to sell on your behalf. Whilst we don’t offer classic car consignment, we do provide a sales advance product. This allows you to receive an immediate cash advance, while we handle the sale of your classic car on your behalf through the most appropriate auction house.

 

What impacts a classic car valuation ?

A classic car valuation is influenced by make, model, year, originality, condition, mileage, provenance, rarity, and sometimes colour. This all affects how much we can loan against your classic car.

How much can I borrow against my car ?

We offer loans from £500 up to £2 million though we only lend against cars valued at or above £75,000. We always aim to provide our clients with the maximum loan amount, though the amount depends on many factors including the make, model, ownership history, provenance, maintenance, condition, market value and any restoration work carried out.

How do you pawn a car ?

Pawning a car is an easy and fast way to get cash on cars. It involves using it as collateral for a short-term car loan. The process includes a car valuation, agreement of loan terms, secure storage, and fast payment. Once the loan is repaid, the car is returned to you.

Do you offer short term loans against classic cars ?

Yes. We offer short term loans against classic cars, vintage cars, and prestige vehicles. Many clients contact us asking ‘can I pawn my Mercedes classic car?’ or other prestige cars. These loans are flexible, discreet, and ideal for short-term liquidity without selling your car.

Do you offer logbook loans ?

We do not offer logbook loans secured solely against a vehicle’s V5 document. Instead, we pawn cars for cash secured against the vehicle itself. The car is held securely for the duration of the loan and returned to you in full once the loan is repaid.

Do you offer antique car loans and vintage car loans ?

Yes. We specialise in antique car loans, vintage car loans, and classic car equity release in the form of car pawnbroking.

Do pawn shops take cars ?

Yes, some pawn shops take cars, but very few specialise in vintage, prestige and classic cars like us. A specialist classic car pawnbroker offers higher loan values, expert valuations, and discreet service compared to a general pawn shop that buys cars.

Can you pawn your car title at a pawn shop ?

Car title pawns are secured against the vehicle’s V5. This is different from what we offer. Our car loans are secured against the vehicle itself, not just the paperwork.

Do pawn shops buy cars ?

If you decide you don’t want to pawn your classic or luxury car, we offer a sale advance loan for high value car owners who are looking to sell and raise funds immediately. Get a quote with us online, in-store or by phone today.

Can you pawn Porsche cars ?

Yes. People often ask us ‘can i pawn my Porsche with you?’ We provide loans against Porsche classic cars, including collector models.

Can you pawn Jaguar classic cars ?

Yes. If you’re looking to ‘pawn my Jaguar’, we offer loans against Jaguar cars, with free classic car valuations based on condition, provenance, and market demand.

Can you pawn a classic car at a pawn shop ?

Yes, you can pawn your classic car with us. We are classic car pawnbrokers and offer a discreet and fast way to borrow money against your car. By pawning your classic car with us, you can get quick funds while still maintaining ownership of your prized classic car.

Can you get car loans with bad credit ?

Yes. Secured loans against cars are available with no credit check at used car lenders like us, as the vehicle itself provides the security for the loan.

Can I pawn my track car with you?

Yes, you can pawn your track car, provided it meets our lending criteria.

Can I pawn my super car with you?

Yes. We offer supercar loans whether you’re looking to ‘pawn my Ferrari‘, ‘pawn my Bugatti’ or another high-performance car that meets our lending criteria.

 

Can I pawn my car and still drive it ?

No. With a car pawnbroking loan, the car is held as collateral against the loan and stored safely in a secure location. This means you cannot drive it while your car is pawned.

Can I pawn my classic car in London ?

Yes, you can pawn classic cars in London at any of our pawn shop London showrooms, with discreet appointments and fast access to funds.

Can I pawn my car ?

Yes. We offer classic car loans, supercar loans and luxury car loans on vehicles valued above £75,000. A lot of people ask us if they can ‘pawn my Aston Martin’ or ‘pawn my Porsche’ with us. We will happily offer you a car loan. Get in touch for a pawn loan on your car.

Can I pawn car parts?

No, we are not a car part pawn shop or a car audio pawn shop.

Can I pawn a car online?

Yes. You can pawn your car online by submitting your details for a loan quote. Once the car has been physically inspected, valuation confirmed, and terms agreed, funds are transferred immediately.

Can I borrow money against my car ?

Yes. You can borrow money against your car through a secured loan against a car. The amount you can borrow with us is based on the car’s value, not your income or credit history.
