It would appear that some of the cars need a fair bit of money spending on them.

The first 20 are in the August 24th auction....

I like the silver 1970 Porsche 914 ........... damn, I knew I should have put more into Thomas Cook shares than I did last year.

^^^ Thanks but I garnered that much from following the link posted. Anything else to add, other than gramatical errors? wink

P.S. I note that Poppyseed Media who-hell-(s)he? is responsible for the PR, but this is the internet! I'm not going to call them and find out! This is a collection of 200 Porsches and someone on here must know something about it!

It would appear that someone in the US had a collection
of 200 Porsches- many in a very rough state
and without matching numbers- decided that he could
make more money selling them in the UK than at home.
How many American car collectors would choose
Anglian Car Auctions near Kings Lynn in Norfolk to sell their
collection? It seems slightly odd.

Was hoping to keep this on the lowdown.

THANKS FOR BRINGING THIS UP DAVID, shall we see if we can get this on home page so every bugger knows?
How can anyone creep in for a bargain if every tool in the south east knows?

If you guys think this is going to be anything other than highly publicised, think again!

It's been mention on a good number of FB groups, and ACA are promoting it heavily on FB themselves - as you would expect them to, and rightly so.

This Porsche auction was the front page headline of today's Classic Car Weekly- the biggest selling
classic car publication......but I'm sorry for publicising it further on this thread!

I've told my mum, but asked her to keep it a secret wink.

[edit] BTW, have you checked out the bargains that people have had in previous auctions? The "classics" seem to go for serious money, but the "modern stuff" is exceptionally cheap.

What are you on about? I ain't heard nothing about no Porsche auction-it's all lies....
it's a myth created by the media....anyone who goes to Anglia car auctions to buy a Porsche
will be well disappointed -there ain't no Porsches
