The company believes that the classic car market is archaic, highly fragmented and intermediary-driven, putting the transmission of this passion to future generations at risk. Mecanicus provides a tech-driven classic car marketplace based on three key elements: # Mecanicus mainly owns the cars to ensure its own quality & reliability standards, providing a different client experience as the relationship is based on car ownership and not acting as a broker. # Mecanicus leverages its double-digit million outreach built through its social media in-house content to sell fast (less than 3 weeks). # Mecanicus provides an AI-driven pricing and scouting tool to challenge the current market opacity and create a modern deal-flow source. Since launching operational activities in 2020, Mecanicus has sold 43 cars in less than a year, achieving β¬1.75m in revenues, and have worked with key clients incl. Fiat, Peugeot, Retromobile, Citroen. Mecanicus estimates a 50bn$ global market (France at $1.5bn, UK at $4bn), growing each year by 2-digit % in value. Using its tech-led model, Mecanicus aims to take advantage of that growth and increase the size of the market via existing buyers/sellers, but also bring new people into the collecting world with easier and more transparent practices. ==Team<ref name=":0" />== '''Quentin Leblond, CEO:''' After a career as a stock trader (Cheuvreux, Kepler) and hedge fund associate (Eiffel Investments), Quentin created his first venture.
