Unbolted: Your specialist pawnbroker

Pawn your classic, prestige, or vintage car for a short-term loan.

Classic cars are works of art. They are reminders of an age where designs were first sketched out with a pencil and paper and captured an almost impossible vision of what a machine could be. They were inspirational if not transformational. They were not encumbered by regulations and restrictions but were of an earlier time where the automobile itself was a wonder. They are a distant relation of the soulless cars of today where automation and fuel efficiency drive design. With a classic car, the engine remains an untamed beast, a mechanical wonder that is exposed to the naked eye not sealed in a unit hidden from view and only accessible through a computer. At Unbolted, we understand what your classic car means to you and that is why we work closely with hands-on enthusiasts and specialists valuers.
