      About 4 Star Classics

      Our company grew out of a passion for great driving machines and modern classics. It is primarily the cars which were produced from the 1970s to the 1990s that really excite us - a time where emission controls, noise levels, security features and miles of wire for the electronics were not an issue for car manufacturers. This resulted in light agile machines that were not only highly manoeuvrable but which also displayed great individual character creating real feedback and emotion for the driver. That is not to say they all drove with great poise but what those models lacked in agility they certainly made up for in looks, individuality and technological equipment.
