Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 909 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company, often describing the service as excellent and professional. Customers found the website easy to use for uploading photos and descriptions, appreciating the detailed space available for adverts and the secure communication system with potential buyers. The staff received high praise for their helpfulness, expertise, and professionalism, guiding users through the selling process and providing excellent support. Many successfully sold their vehicles quickly, highlighting the effectiveness of the platform and the quality of the product listings, especially with professional photography. However, some people encountered issues with relisting cars, receiving messages that their vehicle had been removed from sale, or difficulties with website classifications.

There were also concerns about the immediate charging of service fees during the final 24 hours of an auction, which some felt was not clearly explained on the website.

Myinitial enquiry was by telephone and my queries answered fully an clearly. I chose to advertise with a boost and received several enquiries leading to a sale to the first enquirer within 10 days of placing the advert.

The process of preparing and placing the ad was straightforward, the only slight difficulty I had was identifying the space for replying to enquiries which appears right at the base of the computer screen

Hi Peter,

Thanks for taking the time to leave such detailed feedback - really good to hear the initial guidance helped and that the boosted listing led to a quick sale within 10 days. It’s also helpful to hear your note on messaging visibility, we’ll make sure that’s passed on for review.

All the best,

Car and Classic are a great company

Car and Classic are a great company. I was able to sell my car in a few days and all for free. I was able to upload up to 100 pictures and unlimited text. My phone number is kept private too. A first class service and very easy to use Website. I would highly recommend using them.

Sold my xs1100 within two days

Sold my xs1100 within two days. Seem to be more genuine enthusiasts use this site compared to the more well know one, that seems to attract utter time wasters and dreamers. Also brought a Harley off here years ago. I use the basic which is free. Will use again.

I recently sold my 66 Mustang through Car & Classic.
Overall experience was extremely positive.
Straight forward sign up - easy ad creation - good messaging service with interested parties.
I had set my car up on another site where I received no enquiries. However Car & Classic supplied me with 15 enquiries including the final purchaser. All in all a very good experience.

Set an achievable Reserve price.

Yes, very happy with one sale, albeit pretty low price. For second auction, it did not sell, no evidence of any follow up by you contacting under bidders close to reserve. In fact I was told you were ‘unable’ to contact them which I find annoying since you should have only approved bidders. After relisting the vehicle with no further bidders I was advised ‘that you had no bidders for it’ How can you ‘know’ that you have ‘no bidders’ since anyone can search & find your site at any given time ?

Hi Jonathan,

Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback, and I’m sorry to hear the second auction experience didn’t meet your expectations. It’s good to hear the first sale completed successfully, but I appreciate your frustration around the follow-up on the re-listed auction and the communication around bidders.

Where a reserve isn’t met or a listing is re-listed, activity can vary significantly depending on timing, demand, and bidder engagement, and in some cases we won’t always have active or responsive underbidders available to re-approach in the way you’d expect. That said, I understand why the messaging you received felt unclear, and that’s something we’d want to ensure is better explained and more consistent.

We’d be happy to have the team review your specific case in detail if you’d like to get in touch, so we can walk through exactly what happened on both auctions.

All the best,
Car & Classic

Sold in three days

We put our classic camper van on Car and Classic.

In the first day we had over 300 views by day three we had over 950 and the vehicle was sold for full asking price.

It is a very good site for selling vehicles.

Excellent way to sell a classic car

Excellent way to sell a classic car, and find a replacement! Simple to create an advert, great coverage as the go to place for people looking for a classic, and fantastic value as the ad can be free.

Serious buyers only

I find that Car and Classic adverts attract more serious buyers. Other platforms produce thousands of hits, some stupid offers and lots of time wasters. Take lots of photographs, write a detailed description and you have a good chance to sell.

The app is superb for selling

The app is superb for selling, good prompt’s for details and the right kind of people drawn to the app. My sale was thorough but absolutely the right kind of person I wanted my M3 to go to.

Great experience

Free ad placed on Tuesday evening, lots of views and a few watchers. Got a call Thursday, bike sold to an international buyer Saturday. Had many more emails showing interest. Very impressed.
