Bastian Voigt, Senior Car Specialist and Director of Germany, on joining the Broad Arrow team: “I am thrilled to join the impressive roster of car specialists already assembled and look forward to expanding the Broad Arrow network throughout Germany and Europe in the months and years to come. I know my client base is both excited and ready to experience the full suite of offerings from Broad Arrow Group including auctions, collector car financing, and of course private sales.”

A lifelong enthusiast for all things motoring, Bastian attributes his current passion for collectible automobiles to an enthusiasm for the genre he has carried with him his entire life.

As a result, plenty of work, commitment, luck, and above all the support of his family and friends have enabled him to continue on this path successfully for many years.

Now, six years later, Bastian joins the Broad Arrow team, bringing with him an extensive book of business, a wealth of industry knowledge, and a passion for building the BAG organization in Continental Europe.
