Spring is here! The trees are coming into leaf, flowers in bud and classic cars are going back on the road after their winter lay-off.
Now is also a good time to indulge yourself – update your classic car, expand your collection or take up this popular pastime with your first old car.
You will join a growing band of classic car lovers and owners, visiting summer shows, making new friends and learning new skills when it comes to care and maintenance.
Credo Asset Finance can help put you on the road to classic motoring fun. Our specialist team works with a multitude of trusted lenders and can also fund purchases with our innovative in-house lending.
Ian Robertson, owner and publisher of Classic.Retro.Modern. magazine, said: “Most people put their coveted classics away in the winter.
“Now is the time they get any regular maintenance finished and start to get their classic cars out because it is not very wet, the temperatures are warming up and salt is off the roads.
“March 1st onwards is when owners start to take them out, get any repairs done and the cars recommissioned ahead of the first shows.”
So, with spring here and summer looming, why not buy a well-sorted classic car.
It need not cost a fortune. There are more than 1.5 million historic vehicles in the UK and half are worth less than £10,000.
With the classic car market pretty buoyant, it could even be a good investment if you sell it on having been its latest custodian.
Ian said: “Running a classic car is such a sociable pastime because everyone wants to talk about the cars and you can go along to shows, meet people and make new friends.
“There is a lot of camaraderie and everyone helps each other keep the cars on the road.
“It is about passing on knowledge about cars from a past era.”
