About us
Born from Personal Experience
At CARPADS, we understand the unique relationship between discerning automotive enthusiasts and their prized vehicles. CARPADS is more than a service provider — it is your exclusive partner within the world of luxury automobiles.
With many years of experience in the luxury automotive sector, founder Steve Kastrop developed a deep understanding of what it truly takes to preserve and elevate the ownership experience of classic and high-end vehicles such as Rolls-Royce, Bugatti, Bentley, Ferrari, and McLaren.
Throughout his career, he recognized that exceptional vehicles deserve an equally exceptional level of care and service — something many clients had not consistently experienced with previous providers. This insight, combined with his deep-rooted expertise, uncompromising quality standards, and meticulous attention to detail, ultimately led to the creation of CARPADS.
Our Offering
Our role extends far beyond vehicle storage. CARPADS provides structured oversight for every operational aspect of a collector vehicle — combining logistics, preservation, documentation and coordination under one trusted partner.
Through a discreet concierge model, we manage climate-controlled storage, enclosed transport across Switzerland and Europe, maintenance coordination with specialist workshops, and the complete documentation of each vehicle. Every movement, service interval and condition update can be centrally tracked, ensuring that collections remain organized, protected and operational at all times.
A defining advantage of CARPADS is our 24/7 availability, ensuring that our clients have access to their vehicles and our expertise whenever they need it — a level of flexibility that remains rare within the industry.
For clients who value clarity and transparency, Car Manager by CARPADS offers a secure digital overview of vehicle status, maintenance history, documentation and location. This integrated approach allows collectors to maintain full visibility while CARPADS manages the operational complexity behind the scenes.
Our objective is simple: to ensure that every vehicle within a collection remains preserved, documented and ready — without administrative burden for the owner.
