Welcome to Phil Mires Classic Cars, where a lifelong passion for classic vehicles meets trusted expertise and quality service. Founded by classic car and antiques enthusiast Phil Mires, our journey began with a deep appreciation for the timeless charm of the iconic Mini.
Specialising in carefully sourced classic Minis from across the UK, we make it easy for enthusiasts and collectors to find the perfect car. Every vehicle in our collection is chosen for its quality, character and investment potential.
Phil Mires Classic Cars operates as an extension of PM Antiques & Collectables - an online platform for buying and selling antiques, art, automobilia and collectables.
Phil has been into collectables and classic cars for as long as he can remember. After college, he jumped into the antiques world, gaining hands-on experience and insight while working at auction houses. It was here that his appreciation for the industry really took shape
In 2014, aged 19, Phil launched PM Antiques & Collectables - an online retailer built around his idea that buying antiques and unique items should be easy, accessible and enjoyable. After all, while antiques may be from the past, the way we buy them doesn’t have to be. Since then, PM Antiques has grown into a well-known destination for collectors looking for something special.
Fast forward to 2021, and Phil took things a step further by turning his long-standing interest in classic cars into a business, with a particular focus on classic Minis. What started as a personal passion quickly struck a chord with fellow enthusiasts. Phil particularly cherishes the sense of nostalgia that classic Minis bring to his clients, with some reliving memories of their first car or just want to enjoy the simple pleasure of classic motoring again.
Alan MacDonaldI have just sold my 2001 Rover Mini Cooper Sport to Phil Mires. During the process, I have been impressed with the professional attitude and genuine support received. I was very impressed by his knowledge and vision. First class methodology and extremely prompt payment make this endorsement easy to write. I wish him every success for the future.
Gemma PagePhil is a really genuine, honest, respectful and polite man to deal with. He was very flexible and made our transaction very smooth, even completing all the paperwork and kept me fully informed throughout. I would not hesitate to use the company again. Thank you Phil.
Karina TuriFrom start to finish Phil was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Knowledgeable, professional and kind. I absolutely adore my new (but old!) Mini Cooper. She's a beauty! Would definitely recommend and if I'm in the market for a classic again, Phil Mires Classic Cars would be my first port of call.
"There's something special about a classic Mini - the charm, the character, the nostalgia. I often hear from customers who are rediscovering their youth through the purchase of a Mini, making them reminiscent of their very first driving experiences. Phil Mires Classic Cars is all about sharing that experience - connecting people with the right car, offering fair advice and keeping these iconic vehicles on the road for years to come."
