The Best Car Transporters for Classic and Luxury Vehicles

The world of classic and vintage cars is one of passion, prestige, and meticulous care. For owners, these vehicles are long-term investments, works of art and cherished pieces of history to protect. 

So, when it’s time to transport these vehicles, whether that’s to a dealership, an auction or off to a new owner, ensuring their safety is of the utmost importance. At AKFS, we are passionate about vehicles, and we understand this need. Which is why we offer a range of car transporters specifically designed for the secure transport of classic, vintage, and luxury vehicles. 

Whether you’re an auction house, a classic car dealership, or a specialist transport provider, our enclosed car transporters provide the perfect solution for adding to your fleet and safeguarding your customers’ prized possessions. 

The Benefits of Enclosed Car Transporters for Classic Cars

Transporting classic cars requires more than just moving them from point A to point B. Exposure to the elements, road debris, and even the slightest bumps can cause irreparable damage to these irreplaceable vehicles. An open car transporter simply doesn’t offer the level of protection required, so we’d always recommend opting for enclosed transporters for these specialist vehicles. 

By providing a secure and weatherproof environment enclosed car transporters shield classic cars from the hazards of the road, ensuring they arrive at their destination in pristine condition. This not only protects the vehicle’s physical integrity but also preserves its value and the reputation of your business.

The Covered Vehicle Transporter

​

Our Covered Vehicle Transporter strikes the perfect balance between protection and functionality, making it an excellent choice for businesses focused on the secure and efficient transport of classic and high-value cars. Built on a durable yet lightweight galvanized frame, it’s designed to endure frequent use while ensuring longevity. This robust construction is ideal for a vehicle transporter intended to handle classic cars, which often require special care.

Our expertly designed chassis conversion is a standout feature, ensuring that even the lowest-slung cars can be loaded and transported safely, free from the risk of scraping or damage. This design provides reassurance that every vehicle, regardless of ground clearance, can be handled securely. Additionally, the transporter offers a generous payload capacity, supporting the transport of various classic car types with ease and reliability.

A high-quality, protective cover further sets this vehicle transporter apart. This sturdy cover acts as a protective shield, safeguarding vehicles from weather conditions and road debris. Rain, hail, stones, and even bird droppings can damage classic cars’ paintwork; this cover serves as a barrier, preserving the vehicle’s pristine condition throughout transit. With these features, our Covered Vehicle Transporter offers peace of mind for every journey.

Available as a complete conversion or a free-issue vehicle conversion, our Covered Vehicle Transporter can be tailored to your specific needs, meaning you can choose the option that best suits your business and budget. Whether you need a ready-to-go transporter or prefer to supply your own chassis cab, we can provide a solution that meets your requirements.

The Enclosed Vehicle Transporter

​

For the ultimate in protection, our Enclosed Vehicle Transporter is the ideal choice. This transporter takes security to the next level with a fully enclosed design, safeguarding valuable vehicles from potential damage. Like the Covered Vehicle Transporter, it boasts a sturdy galvanised frame, a height-adjustable tow bar, and a low-line chassis conversion for secure and efficient transport.

The enclosed design adds an extra layer of protection against weather, road debris, and even theft, making it perfect for high-value classic cars. When transporting a rare or valuable car, AKFS’ Enclosed Vehicle Transporter provides security, protecting the car from the elements and potential theft attempts. 

With a wide range of customisable features, the Enclosed Vehicle Transporter can be tailored to meet your precise requirements and preferences, whether you need specialised racking, additional lighting, raised internal ramps, or enhanced security measures. This level of customisation ensures that your transporter is perfectly equipped to handle the specific needs of your classic car transport operations.

The Iveco Enclosed Vehicle Transporter

​

When it comes to transporting classic cars, sometimes a standard chassis cab simply won’t suffice. That’s where our specialised options, such as the Iveco Closed Vehicle Transporter shine. This conversion is built on the Iveco Daily 5100mm wheelbase, chosen for its superior weight distribution, which is necessary when carrying valuable and often delicate classic cars.

Equipped with an 8-speed automatic gearbox, rear air suspension, and a host of other features, it provides a smooth and comfortable ride, minimising stress on the transported vehicle. Classic cars, particularly those with older suspension systems, can be sensitive to bumps and vibrations. 

The Iveco Closed Vehicle Transporter’s smooth ride helps to reduce stress on the vehicle, ensuring it arrives in the same condition it left. The enclosed design ensures complete protection from the elements and road hazards, while the customisable features allow you to create a transporter that perfectly suits your needs.

The Mercedes Atego Enclosed Vehicle Transporter

​

For those seeking the pinnacle of enclosed car transport, the Mercedes Atego Enclosed Vehicle Transporter represents the best of AKFS craftsmanship. Built upon the renowned Mercedes Atego chassis, this transporter offers exceptional reliability, performance, and comfort. Available in a range of GVWs from 7,500kgs to 15,000kgs, it can be tailored to accommodate various sizes and weights of classic cars. The spacious interior dimensions and generous payload capacity ensure that even the largest and most prestigious vehicles can be transported with ease.

With meticulous attention to detail, the Mercedes Atego Enclosed Vehicle Transporter provides the ultimate in protection and peace of mind for valuable cargo. Every aspect of this transporter, from the chassis to the bodywork, is designed and built to the highest standards. This ensures not only the safety of the transported vehicle but also the longevity and reliability of the transporter itself.
