I have no connection with the firm, though have attended their sales previously.

Some interesting cars going through!

Agreed - an interesting selection of cars plus some of the estimates look very reasonable
Rover P5B £4-5k looks to be on the low side to me?

As always, a wonderful hotch-potch of a sale. Their estimates are sometimes well out, like a 240 Jaguar at a minimum of £10,000 (I feel a £4,000 reserve would be more appropriate) yet some of the others have a truly "come and buy me" price and will double the estimate.

It would be a disaster if I went there, I'd fill the barn I've not yet bought.

To be fair to the 240, it does look to be in very fine nick, but the estimate is still somewhat higher than the usual 'very low to tempt you in' figure.

Agreed the XJS and P5 are very interesting. I see there is a rare P4 105 lurking at the end of the list too.

Got to love the Eclat - seems to come complete with a plant growing out of the hole for the speaker in the passenger side door card.

Some great stuff there.


Has this Flavia been customised? It doesn't look normal to me.

Yes, been subject to a fair bit of discussion in the Lancia world. Absolutely horrible thing.

There is a reason why Pininfarina didn't chop the top off 308's but even so this car is worth more than the estimate.
