Our Story

Born From a Gap Every Classic Owner Felt But Couldn't Fill.

Finding a specialist you could genuinely trust — one who understood the provenance of your vehicle, respected its history, and knew when NOT to touch something — was harder than it should have been.

Classic ownership had its forums and word-of-mouth networks, but nothing structured. Nothing vetted. Nothing built for the serious enthusiast.


Retro Garage was founded to change that.
A national membership platform connecting owners, specialists, transport providers, and suppliers — all under one trusted roof.

Our Mission

To connect classic vehicle owners across the UK with the most trusted, vetted specialists in the trade — making expert care and genuine passion accessible at every membership level.

Our Vision

A UK-wide standard of trust for classic vehicle ownership — where every member has a reliable specialist in their corner, from routine servicing to full restoration.

Our Founder’s Story

Meet Steve Ford

Steve Ford is the founder of SGF Logistics — one of the UK’s leading specialist classic vehicle transport companies.



Over years of moving rare, high-value vehicles for collectors, auction houses, and private owners, Steve built an intimate knowledge of which garages, restorers, and suppliers could genuinely be trusted with a vehicle that can’t be replaced.



Retro Garage is the direct result of that experience — not a tech product, but a trusted network shaped by someone who has spent a career in the trade.
