What was The CarCrowd?
The CarCrowd (THECARCROWD LIMITED, founded 2019 by David Spickett, Kirsty Spickett and Sireesh Nallanthighal) was a UK classic and collector car fractional ownership concept. At review, the public website is parked and there is no evidence the platform is accepting new investments. Approximately £5m of assets reported (Feb 2026). The firm historically operated as an Appointed Representative of Kession Capital Ltd (FRN 582160), which has since become insolvent — there is no current FCA authorisation in The CarCrowd's own name.
Status: treated as inactive. There is no FSCS or FOS recourse for the fractional car investment.
How did The CarCrowd work?
The CarCrowd historically acquired classic vehicles, held each car inside a single-asset company, and sold fractional equity stakes to investors. The firm arranged storage, maintenance and insurance, and signalled a planned bulletin-board secondary market for share trades.
What did The CarCrowd offer?
Equity in single-vehicle companies from a stated £2,000 minimum syndicate participation. Income depended on event use and any eventual disposal of the vehicle; ongoing costs (storage, insurance, maintenance) reduced net returns.
Who was The CarCrowd for?
With the website parked and no live route to invest, this profile is retained for historical reference. Holders of legacy positions should contact the firm directly for asset status and any planned wind-down.
