A youngtimer is a car that is not yet old enough to be considered an oldtimer (classic car), but it has reached a certain age and is desirable among collectors and enthusiasts. Although there is no fixed definition for what constitutes a youngtimer, they are generally considered to be cars that are at least 20 years old but not yet 30 years old. Oldtimers, on the other hand, are typically vehicles that are over 30 years old and in their original condition. Antique cars need to be at least 45 years old, although this can vary from country to country. Pre-war cars cover the years from 1919 to 1930. 
 
Such cars are very popular in Europe and North America. Since they are considered collector's items, insurance premiums are usually lower compared to modern cars, even though they can be more dangerous to drive. 
 
High return potential 
Automotive investments have achieved an average annual value appreciation of over 11% over the past 10 years. 
 
Rarity 
In the past, these cars, which are now in great demand, were built very little. For example, only 1400 examples of the legendary 300sl Gullwing were built. According to the Knight Frank 2023 index, classic cars have seen significant appreciation, with a 185% increase over the last decade. 
 
Market Growth 
Statista estimates the global classic car market revenue to be 30.9 billion U.S. dollars and its expected growth to be 8.8 percent annually until 2024.

Why an Aston Martin V12 Vanquish? 
The Legacy of the V12 Vanquish: A Pioneer in Aston Martin's Evolution 
The Aston Martin Vanquish holds a special place in the hearts of both contemporary enthusiasts and collectors of automotive heritage. As the pioneer of the renowned Vanquish model, the V12 Vanquish played a pivotal role in advancing Aston Martin's engineering and design. Many of its groundbreaking features laid the foundation for the development of the current Aston Martin model lineup. 
 
Engineering Marvel: The Astonishing Features of the Vanquish 
Featuring a 5.9-liter V12 engine at the front coupled with an automated manual gearbox, the Vanquish marked a significant engineering breakthrough for Aston Martin. Its construction included a body tub made from aluminum and Carbon Fibre, adorned with meticulously hand-finished, superformed aluminum panels. 
 
Cinematic Connection: The Vanquish in James Bond's Legacy 
The Vanquish gained widespread recognition when it made a notable appearance in 'Die Another Day,' serving as Pierce Brosnan's final film as 007 James Bond. This cinematic connection solidified its status in James Bond history, contributing to its instant recognizability. According to Paul Spires, sales manager at Aston Martin works, the Bond association has a substantial impact on the vehicle's value, much like what it did for the iconic DB5: "Never underestimate the Bond connection. We know what that’s done for DB5 values, and a lot of people who saw the film in 2002 are now in a position to buy their own". 
 
End of an Era: The Vanquish and Vanquish S at Newport Pagnell 
Notably, the Vanquish and Vanquish S represent the culmination of an era as the final models produced at the renowned Newport Pagnell factory. A mere 1489 Vanquish units were meticulously handcrafted. 
 
Why this V12 Vanquish? 
Desired By Collectors 
The 2002 Aston Martin V12 Vanquish 2+2 holds a unique allure for collectors, being the inaugural model of the Vanquish lineup featuring the highly sought-after 2+2 configuration. Adorned in Dark Grey Leather and Grigio Titanio paint, the car benefits from a recent detail and clay bar finish. As low-production, hand-built vehicles, these Vanquish models are among the most collectible and desirable. This particular car, having spent a significant portion of its existence in a private collection within a climate-controlled carcoon, drives beautifully. 
 
An Exemplary Model 
Instantly recognizable as the iconic car driven by James Bond, the Aston Martin Vanquish secured the third spot on the list of the best movie cars, following the Goldfinger DB5 and the Minis from the Italian Job. With its captivating aesthetics and the powerful allure of a naturally aspirated V12 engine, the Vanquish left an indelible mark in the minds of admirers. 
 
True Investment Mileage 
This specific model boasts a mere 19,622 miles covered in its 21 years of existence, supported by a comprehensive service history portfolio, all meticulously documented by Aston Martin. It stands as one of the most well-maintained and original examples still gracing the roads. 
 
Past Performance 
The Aston Martin V12 Vanquish has demonstrated a noteworthy average price increase of over 13.07% YoY between 2018 and 2021 inclusive. Despite a correction in the last two years, the YoY increase between 2018 and 2023 remains a respectable 4.12%. According to data sourced from The Classic Valuer, historical records indicate a substantial gain of 20.62% since 2018, underscoring the model's strong investment potential.

Track Record

The mission at TheCarCrowdis to give investors across the globe the opportunity to invest in one of theWorld’s fastest appreciating asset classes.

Investment in classic cars is an effective way of diversifying a portfolio, indicated by fact that 81% of ultra HNWs have at least 1 alternative asset such as classic cars within theirportfolio. The Knight frank 2023 index shows that classic cars have appreciated 185% in the last decade and 25% in the last year. In the last 10 years, only beaten by rare whiskey; classic cars are consistently in the top 2 highest performing luxury asset classes. 
 
However classic cars as an asset class is not as widely adopted as it should beas a diversification technique. Only 13% of mass affluent investors (mainstream) have any form of classic car investment in their portfolio due to the perceived high barriers to entry including:

<ul>
	<li>Lack of awareness of the category,</li>
	<li>Skill and experience in selecting the right asset,</li>
	<li>Access to acquire the right assets,</li>
	<li>Space to store, experience and resources to maintain the vehicle,</li>
	<li>Capital available to buy the whole car,</li>
	<li>Lack of awareness of regulated platforms to enable fractional investment.</li>
</ul>

But the business case for this asset class is proven. The mission at TheCarCrowd is to give investors across the globe the opportunity to invest in one of the World’s fastest appreciating asset classes.

With some vehicles achieving more than 38% in a single year and 20% acrossthe portfolio, TheCarCrowd has&nbsp;been able to give investors strong returns so far from afully asset backed investment.
