About Riley International
Private Motorcar
Specialists
We are a private brokerage for the world's most significant motorcars. We do not operate a showroom, list inventory publicly, or work with the general market. Everything we do is conducted privately, personally, and with complete discretion.
I
Absolute Discretion
The identity of our clients — buyers and sellers — is never disclosed. Transactions are handled with the same confidentiality as a private bank. We have never publicly discussed a client or a transaction. We never will.
II
Genuine Expertise
We have spent decades in this market. We know the cars, the collectors, the histories, and the values. When we tell you something about a car, it is because we know — not because we have read a brochure.
III
Complete Honesty
If a car is not right, we say so. If your price is unrealistic, we will tell you. Our reputation is built on giving clients the truth — even when it is not what they want to hear. That is what makes clients return.
IV
No Conflicts
We act for one party per transaction. When we source a car for a buyer, we represent the buyer. When we place a car for a seller, we represent the seller. There is no room for conflict in a business built on trust.
Our History
Two Decades
Off-Market
A family business built on relationships, reputation, and a genuine passion for the most extraordinary cars ever made.
2000
The Beginning
Started as a single operation focused on British sports cars. From the outset, the business was built on private introductions rather than public advertising — a model that has never changed.
2008
International Reach
Our first significant international transaction opened the door to a global client network. We invested in the relationships necessary to operate across Europe, the Middle East, and North America.
2014
The Top of the Market
Growing trust from collectors brought us into the hypercar and investment-grade classic market. Multi-million pound transactions handled with the same care and discretion as every car before them.
2025
Riley International
Rebranded to reflect what the business has become — a genuinely international operation. The name changed. The values did not.
