Royal Legacy · Motor Atelier
Your classic car travels alone in an enclosed, insulated trailer, protected from rain, stone chips and prying eyes. With a condition report at collection and delivery, GPS tracking and one dedicated contact.
Original paint, chrome, wood and leather cope with neither road salt nor stone chips. And many historic cars should not cover long distances under their own power. That is why we transport classic cars only in an enclosed trailer, as a single-vehicle transport with no other cars on board.
From the restorer to your garage, from the seller to the new owner or into winter storage: we plan every trip individually and document the condition of your car before departure and on arrival.
The trailer is fully enclosed and insulated with sandwich panels. This protects against weather, dirt and prying eyes. It has no active climate control; for particularly sensitive cars we discuss this in advance.
Your car travels alone. No reloading, no stops at other customers, no other vehicles in the trailer.
At collection and delivery we record the condition in a report and with 15 to 25 photos: all round, the interior and any existing signs of wear.
We can also transport cars that do not run under their own power, by arrangement. For loading, the client provides a pushing aid or a forklift at the collection point.
The price depends on the distance and the package. For classics we recommend Royal Heritage with a documented condition check and battery management. An example for 400 km:
| Package | Rate per km | 400 km, net | Incl. 19% VAT |
|---|---|---|---|
| Royal Standard | €1.75 | €700 | €833 |
| Royal Signature | €2.25 | €900 | €1,071 |
| Royal Heritage | €3.00 | €1,200 | €1,428 |
Net prices plus 19% VAT and tolls, ferries and tunnels. Minimum price per order: Royal Standard €300, Royal Signature €400, Royal Heritage €500 net.
Explained in detail in our guide: How much does enclosed car transport cost?
Model, year, collection and destination, preferred date. Also tell us whether the car runs and whether there is anything special, such as low ground clearance.
You receive a quote with a fixed rate per kilometre. We plan the route and time window and check access at the collection point and destination.
Joint visual inspection, report and photos. Then we load and secure your car in the trailer. You can follow it by GPS on the way.
At the destination we check the condition together with you, sign the report and hand over the keys and documents.
On an open transporter the car is exposed to rain, road salt, stone chips and onlookers. In an enclosed trailer it is protected from all of these. For valuable classics this is the usual choice.
We are liable as a carrier under German commercial law (HGB) or the CMR convention. This statutory liability is limited per kilogram and often covers only part of the value of a valuable car. For the full value we recommend transport insurance, which we can arrange, or including the transport in your classic car insurance.
You or a person you nominate sign the report. If nobody is present, our photo documentation serves as proof of condition.
The key points are in our guide Preparing a classic car for transport. We go through them with you before collection anyway.
