Turin Showroom, Italy
We’re delighted to welcome you to Venaria Reale in Turin, the new Italian home of Girardo & Co.
While we’re headquartered in England, so much of our day-to-day business is conducted in Italy, be it buying, selling, restoring or simply moving and storing cars. And that’s no accident. Our very own Max Girardo and Davide de Giorgi are Italian (and from Turin, no less!), a significant portion of the cars we encounter were born in Italy, and most of the specialists with whom we work are there. And Turin, especially, is a city whose history is intertwined with the very cars – Lancias, Abarths and Fiats – for which we share an extra special affinity.
The knowledge and automotive power in Italy knows no bounds. Broadening our reach and having a satellite facility in Italy – a private, discreet and relaxed environment – therefore felt like a logical and natural next step in order to provide a better and more complete service to our European clients. After all, personal service is how we differentiate ourselves. And where else was Max going to keep his squadron of Martini Racing Team rally legends?!
Girardo & Co.’s new facility is situated in an area just 20 minutes from Turin airport called Venaria Reale. Divided by the Cerona creek, the municipality was once the residency of the 17th Century Duke of Savoy and his army of staff. Our 400-square-meter building itself forms part of a much larger complex, which was a bustling textiles factory in the 1930s. We’ve spent a lot of time and invested a lot of energy into restoring the building, cutting no corners in order to pay the utmost respect to its industrial and architectural beginnings.
As the coronavirus pandemic has mercifully shown clear signs of coming to an end and travel has become (almost) as straightforward as it was pre-covid, so we’re thrilled to be able to welcome you to Turin and share the next chapter of the Girardo & Co. story. That’s whether you’re located on the continent and are looking to consign your car with us for sale, searching for storage a stone’s throw from some of the world’s most prestigious automotive events, or would like to inspect one of the evocative cars we’re offering from Turin.
