Given the kind of cars that auction houses like RM and Gooding are selling at the Pebble Beach auto week it's not surprising they are the focus of everyone's attention at the moment. But very soon after is Silverstone Auctions sale at Salon Prive and it too has a fair selection of magnificent lots.
Got a spare couple of million?
The lead pic is of the 'Stradale' collection, a consignment of cars overseen by Eagle CEO Henry Pearman. The
Ferrari 365 GTS/4 Spyder
is one of just 122 ever made, has covered only 4,000 miles and is a certified Ferrari Classiche car. It's also drop dead bloody gorgeous. The estimate is £1.75-£2.25m.
Need to add an F40 or F50 to your collection? Of course you do. With identical estimates of £600-£750,000, both Ferrari hypercars have very low miles (the F40 10,000 and the F50 just 6,000) and appear immaculate.
But there are one or two surprises in the Stradale collection and the rest of the auction too. The 1931 Bentley Blower is #25 produced and is expected to make over £2m. There's Range Rover chassis #001, a Miura P400, a Fiat Dino Spider... The list goes on. Should be a cracking auction!
