The market has spoken!
It said don't sell all your celebrity Elans at the same auction
Competition for the car with Emm-appeal was fierce setting a world record £146k + fees (estimate £80-£120k). None of the other famous Elans made low estimate. If your teen crush was Cosworth engineer Keith Duckworth you were in for a bargain…

Re: Non-Porsche for sale of the day
A bargain compared to just under £600,000 for a low mileage Sierra Cosworth today!
Re: Non-Porsche for sale of the day
Hard to believe both Duckworth's and Rob Walkers FHC went for around £40K!Hugo 356 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 25, 2023 8:31 pm -

Re: Non-Porsche for sale of the day
the consignor purchased "a set of period RS 500 wheels and tyres in order that TKN's date-stamped originals can be carefully stored and not have to bear the weight of the car for prolonged periods"

Re: Non-Porsche for sale of the day
That’s a pretty hefty premium over a non-celeb car though. A decent S4 is around £25k I think.

Re: Non-Porsche for sale of the day
The Walker car was £49k it was a drophead, the Duckworth car was £39k it was a fixed head. All these plus the Buyers Premium.
It was interesting that the “last” Sprint also a fixed head was £45k, without any celebrity tag

Re: Non-Porsche for sale of the day
Hi Mike
'My Bad', I miss-read the walker car as £40K, still plenty of "dealer' cars around the £40K mark over the last year (and I was told these cars where near concours condition)...
Strangely the 'Duckworth' car had the most appeal to me...
All the best

Re: Non-Porsche for sale of the day
prices listed on the Silverstone web-site include buyers premium @ 12.5% of hammer price (but not VAT on buyers premium which adds another 2.5% of the hammer price)

Re: Non-Porsche for sale of the day
I was sent a screenshot of the online catalogue showing the result last night.
I’m sure we’ve been here before, last time around it was e type jags and Aston DB 2/4s….
