Can I register a Aston Martin in Germany without living in Germany?

Yes. German registration law requires a keeper (Halter) reachable in Germany and a regular location for the vehicle — not your personal residence. Model A — Company as keeper: SRAC Fahrzeugpflege UG (haftungsbeschränkt) is entered as keeper while you stay the legal owner through the purchase contract. Alternatively, Model B — Own-name registration puts you in the Fahrzeugbrief in your own name.

How long does it take to get German plates on a Aston Martin?

Model A is typically ~5 business days. Model B takes 7–14 business days because apostilled ID, a notarised power of attorney and proof of foreign residency have to be collected first.

What does it cost to register a Aston Martin with you?

Our service fee is €500 one-time setup + €99/mo (12 months upfront) for both models. The €99 monthly service fee is paid as a single annual payment, 12 months in advance. Registration office fees, plates, insurance premium and vehicle tax are separate and depend on the car.

Who insures the Aston Martin?

Model B policies are arranged through our insurance partners and issued for the registered keeper. Our insurance partners are AXA and Zurich. Under Model A the car runs on a fleet master policy; under Model B the policy is issued for the registered keeper.

Can you store the Aston Martin between visits?

Yes. Our storage facility is in near Berlin, ~35 minutes from Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER), at €290/month including utilities and supervised security. TÜV renewal is €200, detailing every four weeks €120. Airport delivery on request.

Do I need a CoC document for a Aston Martin?

EU-spec vehicles come with a Certificate of Conformity, which lets the registration office register the car directly. Vehicles imported from outside the EU usually need an individual approval (Einzelabnahme) by TÜV or DEKRA before plates can be issued.
