Our Beliefs
-
Classics are better for the environment
We believe that keeping cars working longer is better for the environment than replacing them with new cars.
-
We're Custodians, Not Owners
We believe that no one truly owns a classic car. Instead, we're temporary custodians whose role is to care for, cherish and enjoy the car.
-
Cars are built to be driven
We believe that cars are created first for the enjoyment of driving, second as artworks, & that they die when left idle.
-
Running a classic needn't break the bank
We believe that it can be affordable to run, and properly care for, a classic car.
-
Classic Cars Unify
We believe that classic cars are a powerful social unifier and leveller. Classic car lovers are in the trenches together and want to help each other.

Our Story
Vroom Classics was founded in early 2025 by two long-term classic car owners frustrated with what they saw as the avoidable challenges of ownership. The catalysts for Vroom Classics were two-fold: Stuart's
experience trying to get his lightly-damaged old Aston Martin - an heirloom from his late father - back on the road where she belongs;
& the appalling cost - both financially & environmentally - of prematurely replacing perfectly functional ICE cars with EVs simply on the basis of tailpipe emissions. These experiences were the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back, so we determined to try & fix what's broken. Succeed or fail, we hope at the very least that we can move the game on and make it that bit easier for our community to flourish.
We’re a small, agile team with diverse skills and deeply analytical backgrounds, united by a lifelong passion for all things automotive, especially classic and vintage cars. We created Vroom Classics to help more people enjoy classic cars. Headquartered in London, we’re spread across England and actively involved in local classic car communities.
Our Founders
Marc De Graeve
Marc's first love has always been cars. Motorsport was an early fascination & a failed ambition to build F1 cars. 10 years building missiles & airliners later, he embarked on an e-commerce career with Amazon, Walmart & Wayfair that has led him to here. Now he's deploying his expertise of marrying technology to e-commerce to his first love.
Stuart Everington
Stuart has always been obsessed with the science & workings of cars & aircraft. His obsession led to a long career in aircraft safety engineering with Airbus, Boeing & Westland-Agusta. With a fleet of classics in his garage, he might know everyone in every classic car club in the UK!
