Meridian was founded by a group of classic car collectors who experienced firsthand the challenges of securing appropriate financing for vintage and prestige vehicles. Traditional lenders simply didn't understand the unique value propositions of classic automobiles, treating a pristine 1960s Aston Martin the same as a standard used car. We knew there had to be a better way to provide classic car financing options that respected both the heritage of these vehicles and the passion of their owners.
Our journey began with a simple question: how to finance a classic car without compromising on terms or service quality? We assembled a team with deep expertise in asset finance, motorsport finance, and vintage car finance. Each member brought specialized knowledge, whether in evaluating race car finance opportunities or structuring hire purchase classic car agreements that made sense for collectors. This diverse background allows us to offer truly bespoke car finance solutions tailored to each vehicle and owner.
Today, we've become a trusted partner for classic car collectors across the UK, providing everything from Ferrari finance and Porsche finance to equity release against existing collections. Whether you're acquiring your first vintage sports car or refinancing an existing portfolio through classic car refinance options, we bring the same dedication and specialized approach that set us apart from day one.
