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 a Lamborghini Gallardo? 
 
Investment Appeal of the Lamborghini Gallardo:&nbsp;A Modern Masterpiece Celebrated by contemporary enthusiasts, the Lamborghini Gallardo represents a fusion of Italian flair and German precision, marking a pivotal moment in the evolution of Lamborghini's design language. This iconic model played a crucial role in propelling Lamborghini into the 21st century, thanks to its aggressive stance and distinctive silhouette that left an indelible mark on the brand's aesthetic. 
 
Technological Advancements and Rarity: A Compelling Investment Proposition Bolstering its appeal as a collector's item, the Gallardo boasted a 5.0-liter V10 engine positioned at the rear, providing enthusiasts with the choice between a gated manual gearbox or the cutting-edge E-Gear system. As the final Lamborghini model to offer a manual gearbox, it holds a unique position in the brand's history. The utilization of a new aluminum chassis, combined with nearly complete aluminum body panels, not only enhanced the Gallardo's performance but also contributed to its lightweight profile. This, coupled with its potent V10 engine and innovative all-wheel-drive system, set a groundbreaking benchmark for supercars during its era. 
 
Cultural Icon Status: Ensuring Long-Term Investment Value The Lamborghini Gallardo achieved worldwide recognition by making appearances in TV series, films, music, and video games, solidifying its status as a cultural icon. This widespread exposure and admiration have played a pivotal role in establishing the Gallardo as a modern classic. With its legacy firmly rooted in the hearts and minds of car enthusiasts, the Gallardo's cultural impact ensures its enduring allure and investment value for years to come. 
 
Why this Gallardo? 
 
A Rare Gem in Manual Elegance This 2006 Lamborghini Gallardo holds significant appeal for collectors, featuring the highly coveted and exceptionally rare gated manual gearbox. Adorned in Nero leather and Balloon White Metallic paint, complemented by 19" gloss black wheels, this manual Gallardo Spyder, equipped with the sonorous 5.0 V10, stands as one of the most collectible and desirable models.With fewer than 5% of the approximately 14,000 Gallardos produced featuring a manual transmission, and only 20 of them being manual RHD Spyders, the rarity of this specific configuration, combined with the scarcity of the Balloon White Metallic paint, makes this car an exceptionally uncommon find. Its unique features position it as a highly promising investment asset due to its exclusivity. 
 
A Testament to Value and Care This specific Gallardo has traversed a mere 36,100 miles throughout its 18 years, meticulously documented in a service book stamped at crucial intervals by either main dealers or marque specialists. This remarkably low mileage not only attests to the car's careful usage but also enhances its investment value, making it an alluring prospect for those seeking a vehicle with genuine potential for long-term appreciation. 
 
Consistent Appreciation in Market Value The Lamborghini Gallardo has demonstrated robust performance in the market, exhibiting an impressive average price increase of over 12.05% year over year between 2020 and 2023 inclusive. This consistent upward trajectory in value over the past years underscores the Gallardo's status as a sound investment, further solidifying its appeal to those looking to capitalize on a proven track record of appreciation in the luxury sports car market.

Track Record

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.

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. 
 
TheCarCrowd is enabling investors to diversity within the category with cars from the 1960s classics to modern day supercars. 
 
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.
