About us
When I realized in the 1970s that it was becoming increasingly difficult to get hold of original Mercedes spare parts, I began to search for them and sell them on to interested collectors. Over the decades, these first steps in the classic car business have turned into a brisk trade in rare vehicles in the premium segment, which has taken me on countless trips from Africa to Russia to South America, among other places.
My core business in Hamburg, founded as E. Thiesen KG (today Eberhard Thiesen GmbH & Co. KG), has been expanded since 2003 by two additional, independent companies in Hamburg and Berlin, from which I have evolved over the course of the year Withdrew entirely in 2018.
