How to buy a classic car from a social distance in 2021
It’s not the first time that car dealerships have had to reopen due to the pandemic, but we can probably all agree that we hope it will be the last.
Although we wrote about it last year, we’ve given our blog a little update with the latest information and guidance from the professional bodies for the motor industry, which came into force earlier this month when non-essential retail opened up on Monday 12 April 2021.
The best-practice guidance from the NFDA ( National Franchised Dealers Association ) covers:
- Communication and educating customers and staff
- Social distancing
- Sanitisation and hygiene
- Personal Protective Equipment
- Using digital and other virtual methods
A reputable dealership will be making the necessary adaptations to their showroom to keep their customers safe, so we’d advise you to take a look at the guidance so that you can keep yourself safe before heading out to look at any cars.
Throughout the national lockdown, Fast Car Finance has secured some incredible new cars for clients, including:
Maserati Granturismo S MC Shift
Twisted Land Rover Defender 110 XS
Fast Car Finance managing director, Andy Wise says: “After a challenging year for many, it’s great to see that the classic car enthusiasts are still taking advantage of some incredible deals at the moment and are taking the opportunity to expand their classic car collection. Social distancing measures have been difficult for car dealserships, but we have seen that safe workarounds are possible and it’s impossible to enjoy a new car at the moment. Our prolific classic car collector gave us some investment hints and tips for classic car ownership earlier this year and he is predicting some incredible deals in the classic and prestige car market, so now is definitely the time to invest if you want to pick up a great deal.”
