Started in 2003, the Car Models List, Car Models Timeline, Car Models Encyclopedia, Car Models Database, Car Models & Engines Database were all databases available for sale for 10 years until I expanded to American market in 2013, consequently they did not contained “Europe” in their names. All the above were handmade, entering data manually from AutoKatalog car magazines and Wikipedia.
After 2015 I made additional databases for Europe using automated scripts to extract data from websites: the Germany and United Kingdom car databases.

Cars sold in Europe. Database being based on AutoKatalog (german car magazine) have 100% coverage for cars sold in Germany which is the biggest car market of Europe. 99% of cars sold in any European country are also sold in Germany. I also added unique cars sold only in UK, communist cars sold only in Eastern bloc, as well as special cars with 2.0 liter engine to comply with Italian tax system.

I made this database in December 2018 at request for someone from United States who wanted me to scrap data from automotivetouchup.com. Coverage: 1950s-present. 64 makes, 2706 make years, 1085 don’t have breakdown by model and 1621 are breakdown by 12376 model years, total 142612 paint codes.
In April 2019 another customer asked me to do the same for Europe, he suggested sourcing data from vernicispray.co.uk. Coverage: 1970-present (note: a couple of cars have wrong production years in this website).
European Car of the Year, list of winners, 2nd and 3rd places for 1964-2016, plus 4th to 8th places for 2002-2015, showing number of points for each car model. Source of data: http://www.caroftheyear.org/previous-winners/, compiled in Excel for easy visualization.
PDF chart with 640 most common car models from Europe since WW2 to present. Took 10 hours to write each car model at correct position in the chart, based by year of launch and length in millimeters, using AutoCAD then exported as PDF, useful for garage builders and students or hobbyists researching the car evolution.
After I copied all cars specifications from German automobile club into Excel format, I analyzed it to show you how cars sold in Germany evolved over past 50 years (this analysis apply for whole Europe, 99% of cars sold in Europe are also sold in Germany). I calculated using AVERAGEIFS formulas. Charts made at 18 September 2019 update with 122214 model versions. You can buy Excel database: German Car Database.
After I copied all cars specifications from Parkers.co.uk into Excel format, I analyzed it to show you how cars sold in United Kingdom evolved over past 40 years. I calculated using AVERAGEIFS formulas. Charts made at 16 September 2019 update with 83430 model versions. You can buy Excel database: UK Car Database.
