As the World's trusted Classic Car Authentication and Rating System, our guiding principles are Integrity, Honesty, Transparency and respect for Privacy. Offering completely independent and unbiased, data-driven information, our unique rating system and inspection reports provide surety around asset-grade vehicles.
Our core services are outlined below (additional services are available, including structural body X-rays where required).
ICAARS services and reports are in no way a roadworthy certification or vehicle valuation.
A timely confirmation of supplied vehicle information against factory records and available build data. Often used by purchasers as a first step in due diligence, or to flag anything suspicious. May later be upgraded to a full Authentication Inspection. Can be conducted remotely, provided required photos and information are supplied.
A full vehicle examination physically conducted on a hoist by trained ICAARS inspectors, either at a prearranged location or one of our nationwide partner facilities. Examines over 900 data points, including forensic X-ray analysis where required, before our scoring algorithm compiles an ICAARS Rating. Uniquely numbered certificates are internally traceable, with client information anonymised to protect privacy.
Compiles available history, ownership details and prior events, complete with photographs, for added context. The vehicle is significantly researched and cross-referenced with available media and historical information, providing extreme value in the form of a comprehensive life chronicle. Notable examples include an historic 1934 Rolls Royce, 1971 GTHO Falcon and 1994 WRX STi works car.
An independent expert assessment of your classic or collectable vehicle provides a full understanding of its rating and potential improvements which may increase value.
An assessment of your vehicle's provenance and body condition highlights any issues before they can lead to expensive post-sale issues or legal proceedings.
Clarification of your vehicle's features and benefits can improve often overlooked sales points in listing descriptions.
