London might be the beating heart of the UK’s car culture – a city where million-pound hypercars cruise down Sloane Street and classics line the leafy roads of Hampstead and Holland Park – but when it comes to storing a specialist vehicle, the capital is no place to keep your pride and joy.

At Racing Green Car Storage, we believe your cherished vehicle deserves better. Our discreet, purpose-built, dehumidified storage facility in the heart of the Kent countryside offers an altogether smarter and more satisfying solution. Here’s why choosing to store your car outside London isn’t just practical – it’s the smart move.

London: where convenience ends and costs begin

Storing a collector car in London comes at a premium. And while one might expect the highest standards of care in return, that’s not always the reality.

Take cost, for starters. Many premium car storage facilities in London charge more than double our monthly rate – without offering a superior standard of service. At Racing Green, we offer a premium, all-inclusive service for a compelling price, without compromise.

Then there’s the location. Most storage facilities in the capital are tucked away in industrial estates — surroundings that feel more like logistics depots than places of passion for motoring. There’s little charm and even less privacy. Given the ever-growing interest in rare and valuable cars, such visibility can pose a security risk, alerting prying eyes to what’s stored inside.

For example, whether you’re safeguarding a Bugatti Chiron, McLaren Senna, or a beautifully restored AC Ace, peace of mind is priceless – and hard to come by in central London.

London living: congestion, cautions and cameras

Anyone who’s driven into or out of London lately will know: it’s no longer a city that welcomes cars. Storage facilities, regardless of how secure or professional they claim to be, are of little appeal if getting to them (and then away to your ultimate destination) is a stress-laden ordeal.

Traffic in and out of the capital is relentless. Even before you’ve collected your car, you’ll have endured a commute more frustrating than fulfilling. And once you’ve got behind the wheel, you face a new set of urban obstacles: 20mph speed limits, congestion charges, ULEZ fees, bus lane fines, and an ever-growing network of average speed cameras and yellow box junctions that can quickly catch the unwary.

Imagine finally taking the covers off your Ferrari 458 Speciale, Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0 or Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, only to be forced into to crawl around in second gear and cursing all the speed-humps until you’ve left the city limits. There’s simply nowhere nearby to enjoy your car as it was meant to be driven.

The Racing Green advantage: freedom, privacy and passion

At Racing Green Car Storage, our philosophy is different. We believe storing your car should be as pleasurable and reassuring as driving it. That’s why we created a sanctuary for car enthusiasts – just an hour from central London, but a world away in every other respect.

Located in the picture-perfect Kent countryside, our private, hidden facility is surrounded by rolling fields, not factories. We’re invisible from the road, and access is strictly by appointment. There are no neighbours, no signage, and no public visibility – offering complete discretion and peace of mind.

First-class service without the first-class price

We understand that for many of our clients, only the best will do. That’s why our all-inclusive, monthly package of £325 plus VAT covers everything your vehicle needs – from climate-controlled storage and trickle-charging, to tyre pressure checks, regular inspections, and unlimited cleaning.

We offer complete vehicle management, arranging deliveries to concours events, all servicing or restoration work, repairs or MOTs. We’ll even collect and return your vehicle using our fully insured enclosed trailer, meaning you don’t even need to make the trip yourself – unless you want to.

If you do choose to visit us, you’ll find a very different kind of motoring welcome. There’s plenty of parking, and you’re more than welcome to leave your daily driver with us while you enjoy your special car. We’ll even give it a clean – and if it’s electric, we’ll recharge it using our solar-powered 22kW charger – all at no extra cost.

And yes – you can land your helicopter on site.

Roads that invite, not inhibit

Unlike London’s traffic-clogged roads and camera-strewn streets, our Kent location is surrounded by quiet, scenic B-roads, ideal for weekend blasts or leisurely country drives. There are no 20mph limits, no ULEZ boundaries, and no speed cameras lurking behind every corner. It’s the perfect place to reconnect with your car.

Whether you're behind the wheel of a Mercedes-Benz 300SL, a Lancia Delta Integrale, or a mid-enginedFord GT, these roads are made for spirited driving. And with easy access to the M20 and M2, you're connected directly to the capital, the coast, and beyond.

What’s more, we’re just over half an hour from the Eurotunnel terminal, making us the perfect pit stop for anyone heading to continental Europe – whether that’s for a road trip, holiday, or simply an extended tour of your favourite Alpine passes.

Experience you can trust

At Racing Green, we’re not just caretakers – we’re enthusiasts. We’ve had the privilege of storing and caring for some of the world’s finest vehicles, including rare Zondas, pre-war Aston Martins, ultra-low-mileage Ferraris, limited-run Maseratis, and track-ready Porsches. From hypercars to hot-hatches, vintage machines to modern-classics, every car in our care receives the same meticulous attention and respect.

Kent: the perfect location to store your car

Whether you live in London, visit occasionally, or just want peace of mind that your car is being properly looked after, storing your car outside the capital makes clear sense – and Racing Green Car Storage offers the ideal solution.

With lower prices, better service, more space, complete discretion, and a location that rewards the drive, we offer something the capital can’t: a storage solution that feels as special as your car.
