The auction had a strong sell-through rate on the day, with a couple of cars not quite reaching their reserve,
but sales were negotiated post auction, these being the Ferrari 365 GTB4 mentioned and a Peugeot 205 T16.
At the opposite end of the spectrum there were cars that exceeded their estimate. These included a 2001
Rover Mini Cooper Sport 500, estimated between £30,000 - £40,000, which achieved £57,500, a 2002 Nissan
Skyline GT-R V Spec, estimated between £120,000 - £160,000, which sold for £303,125, and a 2009 Ferrari
F430 Scuderia 16M Spider, which was estimated between £180,000 and £220,000, which went for £303,125.
However, the biggest leap over estimate was a 1974 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow, once owned by Queen front
man Freddie Mercury, which had an estimate of between £20,000 - £30,000, but sold for nearly ten times the
high estimate at £285,000, obviously the star factor had rubbed off on it! The proceeds from the sale of this
car, which the star owned from 1979 up to his passing in 1991, all went to a charity, Superhumans of Ukraine,
to help build a new hospital. |
