Hiteh Classic OÜ

What Hiteh Classic OÜ does

Hiteh Classic OÜ is a privately held Estonian workshop based in Pärnasalu 31, Saue, Harjumaa, specializing in the restoration and repair of classic cars. The company was founded by Toomas Kriisa, who began building racing engines for VAZ cars in his father's Tallinn garage and has accumulated over three decades of automotive restoration experience. Operations are organized across a three-department workshop staffed by six professionals, covering bodywork (sandblasting, welding, painting, powder coating), mechanical and engine restoration, and complete vehicle rebuilds. Services are priced from 40 EUR per hour, with full restoration projects documented at approximately 1,000 hours of labor, and the company guarantees that vehicles older than 35 years will qualify for Estonian black number plate registration upon completion.

The business operates a direct-sales model in which customers initiate engagement through phone (+372 50 49 175) or email ([email protected]). The company's revenue streams consist of hourly-billed restoration services and a secondary channel of classic car sales, where restored and project vehicles are offered directly through a 'For Sale' section on the bilingual (Estonian/English) website hitehclassic.com. The customer base is entirely B2C/individual, consisting of classic car enthusiasts and collectors seeking high-quality restoration to original manufacturer standards, including owners of rare models such as Mercedes-Benz W116, W126, and 500SL AMG, 1978 Land Rover Series III Lightweight, 1938 Adler, and Chevrolet Corvette C3. Marketing is conducted primarily through the company website and an Instagram profile (@hitehclassic), with no disclosed partnerships, distribution agreements, or external funding.

Hiteh Classic is registered as an Estonian private limited company (OÜ) with no subsidiaries, no public listing, and no disclosed funding rounds, M&A activity, or third-party alliances. Geographic scope is domestic Estonia within the broader Baltic region, and the company does not disclose financial performance figures such as revenue, ARR, or employee compensation.
