The Autobarn Collection

I recently worked with Mark Lennox at the Autobarn of Evanston to sell my vintage Mercedes-Benz on Bring a Trailer. It was a very good experience. Mark is knowledgeable, professional, and responsive. He and his team did a fantastic job in preparing the car for submittal to Bring a Trailer and represented me well. He responded to all questions in a timely manner, and was proactive in adding additional videos and pictures of the car during the auction period. The process was seamless and successful. The car was sold, and I received payment in full within two days. If I am in the position of selling a vintage car in the future, I will not hesitate to work with Mark Lennox again. I would recommend Mark Lennox to anyone who is thinking of selling their vintage car!

In January, 2026, we used the services of Autobarn Collection. We would not hesitate in using them again. We were initially somewhat unsure of the process as we owned a Porsche 928S that was of great sentimental value. This “one family”car was a treasure to us so putting it in another’s hands took great trust. Mark was wonderful. He explained the process, gave us advice, walked us through every step without a hitch. It was a very seamless process for a novice like myself. It was clear the Mark was also very conscientious and did not advertise anything incorrectly or to cover up flaws. His work is accurate and credible. My husband and I felt the car was prepared for sale in the best possible way and we would return to Autobarn Collection without any reservations.

Mark was the consummate professional. He couldn’t have done more to assist if I asked him. He was there every step of the way and guided me through a very successful sale. I would highly recommend him.

Perfect transaction! I purchased a 2008 E93 M3 from the Autobarn Collection and could not be happier. Serious professionals here... The car's description and pictures were extremely well detailed and accurate. Communication was excellent. No hassles at all, truly a pleasant experience. Very pleased with the shop they recommended to do the rod bearing service. To top it off, Mark and Richard are really nice guys! Do not hesitate doing business with the Autobarn Collection.

I would highly recommend The Autobarn Collection in general and Mark Lenox in particular if you are selling a high-end classic or vintage car via an auction with Bring A Trailer. Mark is a true car enthusiast and professional. He was extremely helpful in preparing the car for auction, photographing and videotaping the vehicle, setting up the listing, and managing it throughout the auction. He then seamlessly completed the final transaction and arranged for the shipment of the vehicle to the winning bidder. I even received payment within 24 hours of the auction's completion. Their fees were well worth the services provided. I could not be more pleased with Mark and the outcome of the sale.
