VintagEuro was born out of a passion for “classic European motoring.” And while that can mean different things to different people, we like to think of it as the era after World War II until about the end of the 1990s. The actual boundaries are a little fuzzy – more qualitative than a specific point in time.
In this time, the brands we know and love today were truly unique, each earning its own reputation (for better or for worse). The cars from Germany had a distinctly different character than those from England, Italy, France or Sweden, and vice versa.
Some were drivers’ cars with racing pedigrees; others were pure expressions of unrestrained design or luxury. Some were little more than charismatic junk, but we came to love them for what they were. The same goes for the motorcycles and scooters from the same places.
So that’s what we celebrate here at VintagEuro. We embrace the unique and varied histories of great brands from Alfa Romeo to Volkswagen. We honor the great designers and coachbuilders. We toast the racing teams and drivers that made legendary places like Le Mans and Monza and Silverstone.
In short, we revel in the greatest era of motoring as we know it. So come along and join us.
