Will a single make classic car Sale work in this market? This was the debate back at Silverstone Auctions HQ in Gaydon during the early Autumn months of 2015, prior to our late October single make Sale.....
If its a 'Porsche Sale' the answer , it seems, is a resounding yes!
Total sales of £2.75m and a sales success rate of over 70% on the day confirm the rude health of the Porsche sector of the classic car market.
Over 400 Porsche Club GB members filled Halls 1 and 2 of the Wing at Silverstone Circuit and were able to join in an exclusive Porsche track day, visit and dine at the Porsche Experience Centre, or join in the varied Automobilia Sale, as well as the 60 car strong classic car sale.
Headlining the results was the '73 2.7 RS Touring which reached £410,625 from a German buyer. More modern classics also rang the bell with a five thousand mile 2007 Gen1 911 GT3RS making £168,750, some £28,750 over it's estimate.
Even a more modest 944S2 Cabriolet was in record breaking form, achieving £27,560, as was the two thousand mile from new 2004 Boxster S 550 Anniversary, finally selling for £23,850.
The one-off Porsche 911 'Project 50' amazed the room by selling for £173,250 which was a reflection of the Porsche GB Central Operations build quality and flair.
This coming weekend 14/15th November, Silverstone Auctions heads to the NEC Classic Car Show with another 100 quality classics under the hammer and we hope to see many of our valued clients there.
Meanwhile the motorhome division of NW Sportscars enjoyed an outstanding show at the NEC in October with no less than 12 new IH Motorhomes finding new homes.
Digital developments are ongoing at both Nick Whale Sportscars and Motorhomes with a very exciting new website likely to appear early in 2016. NW Sportscars continues to offer varied and exciting sportscars, strengthening it's position in a competitive market place. Its a busy time all round!
