Website relaunch with vehicle sales and client portal
Challenge
HUBRAUM stores valuable vehicles near Munich and also offers vehicles for sale. The old website ran on Django, with Google Analytics and a cookie banner, and described the offering with adjectives instead of evidence. What was needed was a presence that shows concretely what customers pay for, and on which the team maintains its sales vehicles itself.
Approach
It started with personas and a content concept. From these came the copy and a new identity in anthracite and gold, in German and English. The site is built with Astro and runs on the client's existing server, without external services and without cookies for visitors; even the built-in visitor statistics work without cookies and without stored IP addresses. For sales, the team maintains vehicles and their photos in a separate area with roles and fixed permissions, and the photos get a watermark automatically. Invited VIP customers see preferential prices in their portal, and selected vehicles before anyone else. Sign-in works by passkey or password, and staff additionally need a second factor. In the database, row-level security decides who sees which data.
Outcome
The new site has been live since 14 October 2026 and has fully replaced the old one; the old addresses redirect. It no longer needs a cookie banner. The team maintains vehicles and client accounts itself. New versions go live without downtime, and everything is backed up every night.
