Milan · A private collectors’ car initiative
The Gino Motta Collectors Car Fund
The proposition
A great car can sit beautifully for a decade and remain only a possession. Or it can be restored with judgement, entered with purpose, driven where it matters and documented until its next owner understands exactly why it is exceptional.
The Fund is designed to do the latter—without asking the owner to manage the machinery around it.
Access that becomes provenance
From an international rally start to the lawns surrounding the world’s most important concours, the Fund prepares each eligible car for moments capable of increasing knowledge, recognition and market authority.
Target opportunities may include Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este, Goodwood, Monaco Historique, Mille Miglia, Le Mans Classic and a carefully selected international rally programme. Entry always remains subject to organiser acceptance and the car’s eligibility.
See the access strategy ↗Two routes · One collection
Both routes are intended to create participation in a professionally governed collector-car portfolio, subject to private qualification and definitive documentation.
Capital participation
Enter through capital and gain exposure to the performance of the wider collection rather than one particular car.
Collector car contribution
Contribute an eligible car at an independently agreed value. The contribution forms the basis of your Fund position and unlocks a car-specific value plan.
The owner’s value machine
The Fund coordinates the specialist network around the car. Each decision is made against the same objective: preserve the machine, create meaningful provenance and retain the owner’s freedom at exit.
See the turnkey modelTitle, provenance, condition, eligibility, valuation and investment review establish the starting position.
The technical, event, hospitality and exit strategy is built around the individual car—not imposed from a generic calendar.
Specialist restoration, conservation and FIA/Motorsport-level eligibility support are commissioned where they add genuine value.
Insurance coordination, secured storage and white-glove international transport place the car where it needs to be.
Concours, rallies, private member events and hospitality create a life around the car and the owner.
Every significant invoice, kilometre, entry, image and result enters a controlled provenance dossier.
Take net sale proceeds after agreed fees, or leave a mandate to source and build the next car without starting again.
Turnkey means the bloody works
Restoration strategy, engineering, storage, maintenance, insurance coordination, international transport, event preparation, hospitality and owner reporting can be managed as one coherent programme.
Third-party work is approved and funded separately from the Fund’s investment economics. That keeps the accounting transparent while removing the burden from the owner.
Everything around the car ↗The collector flywheel
The model is not built around passive storage. It is built around a repeatable cycle in which technical quality, access and provenance support stronger market positioning—and the next acquisition keeps the collection alive.

Source the next car
Restoration, maintenance, insurance, logistics, hospitality and event costs are separately approved and attributable to the relevant car or owner mandate.
Fund management, sale execution and sourcing mandates generate agreed fees. The definitive memorandum will set out the structure before participation.
An owner can retain a budget with the Fund to source, inspect, acquire and—if desired—restore the next car against a new value plan.
The Scuderia Milano privilege
A qualifying car contributor becomes immediately eligible for Scuderia Milano Villa membership, with the normal House Admission Contribution waived. Definitive membership remains subject to standard onboarding and Club terms.
This places the owner inside the hospitality, community and automotive calendar surrounding the collection—without confusing Fund participation with Club governance.

Foundation 22 · Portrait Milano
The year a qualifying car enters the Fund—and the following three Gala editions—are included while the car remains in the Fund. If a sale completes before 2 September, that year’s inclusion ceases unless separately reserved; a sale on or after the Gala date creates no clawback.
The Gala is more than hospitality. It can become a presentation setting for selected cars, stories and—where appropriate—a carefully structured charitable or specialist sale moment.
The Gala privilege ↗Phase 2 · Private founding conversations
The first conversation is about the machine, the owner and the ambition. Participation follows only after valuation, qualification and definitive legal documentation.
