HeinkelTrojans at Anglia Car Auctions
If you are seeking an interesting micro car project, the next ACA sale which at present is scheduled for the 13th and 14th Feb will include a trio of Heinkel Trojan restoration projects. Two have not been on the road since the 90s and one has not been out since the 70s.
No reserve bargains at Historics
We suspect the ongoing pandemic and an understandable general reluctance to travel at present led to several of Historics no reserve cars being left with few bidders. There is also an assumed thought process that no reserve cars at auction usually end up with lots of spirited bidding and achieved prices sometimes better than if a big reserve/estimate is placed on the car.
H&H online auction
H&H are holding their latest online sale today and although it is not as large as their usual physical auctions it still includes lots of interesting cars. A good example is a rarity which is a 1938 Lanchester 14/6 Doctors Coupe, a lovely looking 6 cylinder car which comes with an undemanding estimate of £10,000 - £12,000.
Brightwells online auction gets underway this week
Brightwells latest time auction got underway on Saturday and will end on the 5th November. Brightwells have not held a full size classic car auction this year due to the pandemic which is a shame because they always attract large numbers of cars but also understandable given the limitations of the Covid pandemic.
SWVA Results
With another lockdown looming SWVA just managed to sneak in their last sale of the year on Friday. As always they have generated a very high sale rate of 94%.

SWVA
SWVA will be holding their last auction of the year this coming Friday. They generally focus on the more budget end of the market, but always have interesting cars for the enthusiast and this sale is no exception with plenty to interest enthusiasts.

Bonhams Speed Week sale results
Bonhams Speed Week sale held this past weekend at the Goodwood event of the same name generated a low sale rate, but bearing in mind we are in the middle of a pandemic and the cars on offer were right at the top end despite some some fantastic cars being available, it was perhaps not that surprising. There were still lots of good results and at any other time we believe the numbers would have been a lot better, but with pandemic restrictions now taking effect across the country people are less inclined at the moment to travel to auction viewing days.
H&H online auction this week
H&H have their second auction this month this time in an online format on the 21st October,. There are some interesting cars in this sale such as a very low mileage (9877 miles) MG Metro Turbo estimated at £18,000 to £20,000.
H&H this week at the Imperial War Museum Duxford
H&H are holding their first physical sale of the year this week at one of their usual locations, the Imperial War Museum in Duxford which is a welcome change in a world dominated by Covid. There is a nice selection of cars on offer including a very nice Triumph GT6 MK3 which has had £50,000 lavished on it and with a very competitive estimate of £16,000 to £20,000.

Bonhams Goodwood Speedweek sale
Bonhams Goodwood Speedweek sale catalogue is now available and the list of superb cars is endless. It will certainly be a good gauge of the health of the classic car market as we move towards the remaining weeks of what has been a difficult year.

Strong bidding at Historics
Bidding at yesterday's Historics was very strong and suggest that despite all of the horrors going on all around us the market for classic cars remains very strong indeed. We think this was a particularly strong result for Historics with many cars beating the upper end of their estimates and even the no reserve cars did extremely well on the day.

Bonhams MPH results now online
Bonhams latest MPH sale took place at Bicester today and the results in include one or two surprises such as a world record price for a 1968 Wolseley 6/110 saloon which looked superb and must have been so with a vendor rating of 99/10. The car had come from a deceased estate and achieved a huge £16,875.
