Our History
TheCarCrowd was founded with a mission to disrupt traditional investments and unlock classic cars for the masses. Making it clear and simple to diversify your money into a high-performing asset class, previously reserved only for the ultra-wealthy.
2020
The CarCrowd gains regulatory permissions allowing investors to be protected when investing their money.
2021
With 20+ years of curating investible grade classic cars already under the curation team's belt, the first asset launched on the platform - a Peugeot 205 GTI funds, shortly followed by a Renault Clio V6.
AArticles in Forbes, AUTOCAR and UK Investor appear, increasing customer trust and attracting more savvy investors to the platform.
2022
The company expands, bringing more experienced curators into the team and increasing experience to over 75 years. Asset average value increases as well, and user base doubles from 1,000 to 2,000, demanding more high-value assets.
First distribution partner GetChip secured, Ferrari Testarossa funded at £210K. Fastest funded asset - a 4,000 mile S1 Lotus Elise goes through the platform in less than 24 hours.
2023
TheCarCrowd continues to grow with active users doubling to over 4,000. Collaboration with Swiss platform Splint Invest allows us further distribution channels sourcing £500k in assets to date. Total curated portfolio nearing £2M with an ARR of 20%.
2024
Collaboration with Konvi kicks off. Demand for increasingly high-value assets and curated portfolios from private individuals as well as partnerships lead us to branch out into further investment opportunities. We are a platform dedicated to sourcing the most investable and extraordinary machines in the world whilst providing valuable and insightful content to our community.
2025
TheCarCrowd re-launches to cater for demand from family offices and ultra-high-net-worth investors as well as a new CGT Free syndication structure.
THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING
