Cathedral Classics was formed to finally keep the frustrations at bay of a tortured Classic Car fan and enthusiast of some 40 years. Following a successful career in Germany selling tax-free cars to Service Personnel, particularly managing Audi UK’s Audi Military Sales programme, Stewart J. Roy felt the time was right to ‘make the move’ and fulfil a dream. The son of a ‘car dealer’ (as they were once known) he felt that the passed down passion should be reciprocated. In 2004, for his father’s 60th birthday, he presented his dad with a 1969 MGB GT which is still in the family today. Being based in Germany and accessible for most central European countries, Stewart & Cathedral – Classics are contacted by many walks of life – from many countries. Stewart quickly learned the language and has never looked back since. He says: “It’s wonderful to meet and do business with people from varying cultures that all have this same passion. So, whether you are buying or selling – or just browsing please, feel free to contact us and enquire or, simply share the passion. We would be delighted to hear from you.” All the vehicles offered by Cathedral-Classics are personally checked, fastidiously inspected and driven by us to ensure they meet the incredibly high standards that are becoming very hard to find. The cars are selected to provide the new owner with the best possible experience of that model, whatever it may be. We pride ourselves in offering only the very best from these Legendary Marques. Prestige Vehicles deserve to be treated with all the integrity in the world – as do every one of our customers – guaranteeing, that the cars we have on offer are of the highest quality.

Colin Ferns joined Mercedes Benz as an apprentice in 1980. As soon as he was qualified he left and started his own business, convinced that he was able to offer customers better service and better value than they were getting from the Mercedes main dealer. Since then Colin has gone from strength to strength and now employs a small team of dedicated staff to ensure that, as the business continues to grow, customers can still expect the same levels of service and attention to detail that Colin has always employed in order to achieve the results required to meet the demands of a discerning and ever-expanding customer base. He has prepared and driven racing cars at national competition level with some success and this brings an added understanding of vehicle dynamics to the business. Over 4 Decades Mercedes of Experience The business today occupies a unique standing. It is certainly one of the oldest established Independent Mercedes Benz Specialists in the country and enjoys long-standing relationships with its customers, some of whom are the same customers who employed Colin when he first started over 40 years ago. Interestingly, we often see cars that continue to come to us even after successive changes of ownership. Specialist Diagnostic Equipment Modern cars of today require modern and sophisticated tools and equipment and so the business invests in exactly the same diagnostic technology that Mercedes’ own dealers use. This not only enables us to interrogate customers' vehicles with accuracy, but gives us access to any technical information or support that we might need directly from Mercedes in Germany. This investment coupled with our extensive experience makes us uniquely placed to offer expert service on Mercedes cars of all eras from the 1950s to the latest AMG models. Our professional approach means that we do not rely on diagnosis by substitution as less well equipped garages must inevitably do. We are also unique in that we specialise in Mercedes only, not “Mercedes and BMW” or “German cars. We strongly believe that by dedicating ourselves to this single prestigious brand we are able to deliver unrivalled service at extremely competitive prices. Genuine Mercedes Parts We use genuine Mercedes parts in 99% of cases. Whilst this may not always be the cheapest option, we believe that in doing so we are ensuring that customers can expect not only a reliable and consistent Mercedes repair but one that is guaranteed by all Mercedes Dealers in Europe. Mediocrity is not acceptable, only excellence will do.

SL Specialist Mercedes restoration has always been an integral part of our business and we have been proud to produce restorations of the highest quality to many older models such as the W111/112, 121, 113, and even the ubiquitous 300SL “Gullwing”. The most common of these older models are the 230SL, 250SL and 280SL from the 1960’s. We have established a reputation across the world as specialists in this model. We can offer everything from a Mercedes service to a complete bare-shell restoration. Recent restorations A bare shell restoration is of course a time-consuming and expensive undertaking when done properly, and there are many, many examples of older Mercedes cars that have been subjected to poor quality restorations in the past. We consider ourselves to be exceptional in the standards that we offer.
