“The decision to branch out on my own to develop a new business has not been easy,” says Hartley Jnr, “but the time is now right for me to put my considerable experience, reputation and energy into a new venture that I can develop in a very personal way.” Operating from brand new private premises in Derbyshire, the new business will take advantage of Tom’s knowledge and infectious enthusiasm for classic cars, as well as his discerning eye that enables him to select only the very best cars available on the market – take the fabulous 1957 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa, for example. We’re pleased to say that Tom Hartley Jnr’s stock is being offered in the Classic Driver Market. His father and brother’s dealership will continue to trade without him, and will also keep advertising its stock here on Classic Driver.
