Why Heritage Cars
Bid on facts, not forecourt talk.
Eight reasons buyers choose a transparent online auction over a sales pitch.
- 01
Honest badges
Five checks on every lot, ticked only when done. Physically inspected cars carry the Heritage Inspection seal; the rest say exactly where their report came from.
- 02
No hidden extras
A 5% buyer's premium (minimum £250) plus any VAT shown in the lot's price breakdown. Registering and bidding are free. See the fees.
- 03
Nobody gets sniped
A bid in the last 2 minutes moves the end to 2 minutes after it, so the auction ends only when bidding has really stopped.
- 04
Your maximum stays private
Set the most you will pay and we bid for you one step at a time. Nobody, including our staff, can see your maximum.
- 05
Pay from your own bank
Approve the payment in your banking app against an itemised invoice. No card fees, and no card details to share.
- 06
Proper handover
Keys, V5C and any service history are handed over with the car at an appointment, or we deliver to mainland UK.
- 07
Your rights protected
Consumer buyers keep their rights under the Consumer Rights Act and can cancel within 14 days of receiving the car. How it works.
