„Aus meiner tiefen Leidenschaft für Automobile und den Motorrennsport habe ich ein professionelles Streben nach Perfektion entwickelt.“
Jochen Arden
For over 45 years, our name has been synonymous with elegant British design paired with German engineering expertise. Arden stands for optical understatement in chassis design, exquisite interior craftsmanship and high-performance engine construction. This is the foundation of our globally treasured brand. It is an inseparable part of our DNA. We stay true to our motto, “The Drive for Excellence”, refining premium British vehicles with precision and finesse. In our workshop, we restore classic vehicles to their original splendour with the love for detail that they deserve. By doing so, we help exclusive cars not only retain their value, but often increase it.
We never stand still. Ever since our foundation in 1972, we have continued to develop so that we can achieve the best-possible results in design and performance, and best serve the needs of our customers. Driven by our desire to improve, we also continue to expand the range of services we offer in our workshop, our global network of dealers, and online. Our e-solutions open the door to the future. In the spirit of German engineering tradition, they offer solutions today that will shape mobility tomorrow.
We were the first German company to specialise in refining British premium cars. From famous brands like Jaguar, Range Rover, Bentley and MINI to your classic vehicle, the Arden workshop team will fullfil every wish and devote themselves to repairing or refining your premium car. This pioneering spirit has guided our thoughts and actions to this day.
When refining and repairing vehicles, we use only the highest-quality components and the best materials. The result is an experience for all the senses, with the looks, sound and feel given even more character. All this leads to greater pleasure on the road.
“Design meets craftsmanship”. With this motto in mind, we adapt our products to the needs of the market. In the spirit of German engineering tradition, we combine exquisite chassis and interior design with high-performance engine construction.
The outstanding craftsmanship and premium technology of our products ensure a long service life and a more enjoyable driving experience. We focus on perfection, starting with the design and interior to the technology. We take the understatement of British brands, with their elegant looks and technology, and bring it to the fore.
Every wish, no matter how unusual, is a challenge to relish. Making it reality is our utmost goal. With a range of premium components and tailor-made fittings, we accept no limits when it comes to customisation. All our work is characterised by incredible precision, a love for detail and a willingness to respond to customer needs.
In fact, we are often the ones setting the trends and shaping further developments. Exceeding expectations and delighting our customers is what we do best. We set ourselves the highest standards to become that little bit better, improve our products and make our customers happy every day.
Through internal and external quality checks, we make sure that products only leave our workshop when they meet our high expectations. To protect our customers against imitation products and increase the resale value of the vehicles we refine, we issue an Arden certificate for each vehicle that undergoes any major conversion in our workshop in Krefeld.
Now in the second generation of family ownership, we are more committed than ever to this promise. After all, happy customers are the foundation of our success. Our experienced team offers incredible craftsmanship at a fair price. Our trained technicians and mechatronic specialists work with the latest technology. Company management are also happy to personally advise customers.
