ClassicarGarage Newsletter 54, February 3 2011



Dear classic car enthusiast,

The year 2011 started perfectly concerning classic car sales. Our garages sold 19 quality classic cars in January. Noteworthy are the international sales. From the year 2005 we are selling more classic cars worldwide than on the Dutch home market. Since the year 2008 seven out of ten automobiles find a new international owner, especially in Belgium, Germany, Switzerland and France. According to foreign buyers the quality and price of our excellent, superb and concours condition cars is much better compared to similar cars they have inspected in their own country.
The unstable weather of the last weeks presented us a hand full of days to test drive and photograph classic cars for sale. Below you will find some beautiful classics. All presented
cars are a sheer joy to look at and to drive... but the little Fiat Abarth 695 esse-esse
stole my heart!
 
Sincerely,
Marc Vorgers.
