Services open in stages, and founding members get them first. Every partner is named before you use them, and Patina may be paid a fee when you do.
Patina began in 2013 as a home for classic cars and their histories. Its community went on to start THE MARKET, the UK’s first online classic car auction platform.

Every car welcome, at any price
Free to join, whether it’s a concours Aston or a weekend MX-5. Add your car whenever you’re ready, or join simply because you love classics.
Owners helping owners
Ask the people who know these cars best. Members share what they’ve learned, openly, and every car’s story is kept honest and on record.
Specialists chosen with care
Every partner is named before you use them. Some pay Patina a fee when members use their services; that keeps the club free, and we’ll always tell you.
Founding membership is open.
Founding members get first access to every service as it opens.
