Purpose-Designed Facility

Privacy and security are at the heart of our choice of location for our 10,000sq ft facility, in Kent.

Ours is the first purpose-designed, carbon-balanced car storage facility in the UK, powered by the sun’s energy to minimise our impact on the environment.

But we take things a step further, with our sophisticated Cotes dehumidifier system, which maintains a relative humidity level of 55%, ensuring cherished cars and their precious components and materials are perfectly maintained while in our care.

Our pair of generous load bays can accommodate our Brian James Race Transporter 6 trailer with ease, and even HGV-type vehicle transporters, meaning no loading or unloading in bad weather.

And with the latest generation security, CCTV and fire systems, and insurance approval from market leader Howden, we offer complete peace of mind.

Testimonials

Join The Club

“The team at Racing Green have done a first-class job of caring for my widely varied collection of cars, taking care of vehicle transport, providing thorough reports and feedback and always being available for out-of-hours enquiries or visits.”

Mark S, Tunbridge Wells, Kent

“After an eight-year restoration, I was nervous about collecting and transporting my 1954 Aston Martin DB2/4 MKI ‘Lightweight’, but Oliver and James were the utmost professionals, meeting me off the ferry at 6am, getting the car safely home and being super company along the way!”

Richard H, Sevenoaks, Kent

“You guys make everything so easy. Like when I asked at admittedly short notice for my McLaren 570S to be made ready for a last-minute trip to Le Mans, for the 24-hour race and it was turned around in less than half a day.”

Robin H, Speldhurst, Kent

Who are the founders of Racing Green Car Storage?

The founders are Oliver Hagger and James Mills, a collector and motoring journalist respectively – and car enthusiasts through and through.

During the same period, James was an editor for the likes of Top Gear, The Sunday Times Driving, Auto Express and Hagerty. This period provided deep insight into the world of specialist, enthusiast and collector vehicles.
