How it works

One dial for the
whole market.

Finding the right classic shouldn't mean living in a dozen browser tabs. Here's how The Classic Radar turns the hunt into a single, calm signal.

01

Set your radar

Tell us exactly what you're after — make, model, era, spec, colour, budget. As specific as a matching-numbers RS500, or as broad as "any fast Ford worth a look."

02

We sweep every source

Auction platforms, specialist dealers, classifieds and the auction houses — brought together so you search them as one, instead of one by one.

03

You hear the moment it lands

When a car matches what you've saved, you get an instant alert with a direct link — while the listing is still fresh and before the crowd arrives.

The difference

Built around the alert, not just the search

Plenty of sites let you search. Almost none tell you fast enough. For a car you might wait a year to find, being first is everything — so that's what we built around.

Cross-source by default

Your saved search watches the whole landscape at once. New sources get added over time, so your coverage only grows.

Honest about what we see

Where we can show full listings, we do. Where a source is closed, we point you straight to it. You always know where a car is coming from.

Provenance front of mind

Clones and murky histories are part of this world. We surface the checks and history tools that help you buy the real thing with confidence.

Where we're starting

Fast Fords first

We're launching with one community we can serve brilliantly — the fast Ford world, where the cars are rare, prized, and hunted hard. Get that right, earn the trust of people who truly know these cars, and widen out across the classic world from there.
