Brokerage

Classic Car Broker in Germany

Independent representation for buyers of German-sourced collector vehicles.

Auto Zimmer acts for the buyer, not the seller. We locate the right car inside German private collections and specialist networks, verify it, negotiate on your behalf and hand over a complete document file — remotely, from Kiel, for clients worldwide.

What a buyer's broker actually does

A dealer sells you the stock they hold. A broker starts from your brief and searches the whole market — including cars that were never advertised. Our fee is agreed in advance, so our advice is never influenced by which car you buy.

  • Written brief: model, period, specification, colour, budget
  • Shortlist with honest condition commentary, not sales copy
  • Negotiation and private-treaty contract in German and English

Why Germany, and why Kiel

Germany holds one of the deepest reserves of well-kept post-war collector cars in Europe: dry storage, stamped service books, TÜV records and owners who document everything. From Kiel we are minutes from the Baltic ports and a short run from Hamburg, which keeps export logistics simple.

How we are paid

A transparent, fixed brokerage engagement agreed before we start. Payment for the vehicle itself is by SEPA bank transfer, with cryptocurrency settlement (BTC, ETH, USDC, USDT) available at a 5% discount.

Common questions

Do you represent the seller or the buyer?
The buyer. Vehicles are sourced from private collections and specialist owners; our mandate and fee come from the client who is purchasing.
Can I buy without travelling to Germany?
Yes. The entire process is handled remotely — reports, photography, video walkarounds, bilingual contract, export paperwork and delivery to your door.
