How concierge sourcing works
01
Tell us the car
Marque, model, era, colour, budget — the more specific the brief, the faster the find. One form or one WhatsApp message starts the hunt.
02
We find & inspect
Our network scouts the UK, Europe and Africa. You get photos, video walk-arounds and an honest condition report before any money moves.
03
Delivered to your door
We handle negotiation, paperwork, shipping and customs. You handle the first drive.
03 — The Signature Line
Africa's rust-free classics
Dry climates preserve steel. While European survivors dissolved under road salt and damp lock-ups, cars in Southern Africa and Ghana baked — paint faded, metal intact. That's why our restoration projects start from shells other dealers can only dream of.

04 — The Founder
It started with a white Fiesta XR2i
One drive was all it took. Ten-plus years in the motor industry later, Lisa Hamilton — founder, director and mother of two — built Classic Car Runway to do sourcing the way she'd want it done for herself: honestly inspected, personally handled, properly shipped.
“Every car has a person attached. My job is making sure they end up with the right one.”Meet Lisa
05 — Word of Mouth
What clients say
“Lisa found the exact Capri I'd hunted for a decade — and the shell was straighter than anything I'd seen in the UK.”
“The inspection report arrived before I'd even asked for it. Photos, video, compression figures. That's how you buy a car sight unseen.”
“From first WhatsApp to the car landing at Southampton took nine weeks. Painless.”
