The opening few months of this year will see a flurry of activity once more in the classic car auction sector.
A few major auctions have already taken place in January with some notable sales recorded. At the RM Sotheby’s Arizona auction a 1971 Lamborghini Miura P400 SV by Bertone sold for just under $3.6 million, the Mecum Kissimmee auction saw a 1992 Ferrari F40 sell for $3,135,00.00 whilst a 1989 Ferrari F40 went for $2,750,000.00 at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale auction.
So what is in store in February and through to the end of April 2023? A number of great auctions will be taking place and here we highlight just a few.
Silverstone Auctions will host the Race Retro Classic and Competition Car Sale from 24-25 February 2023. A collectors’ car sale, a sale of automobilia and a competition car sale will make this a great two days of auction activity at Stoneleigh Park in Warwickshire, UK.
The same weekend you are spoilt for choice with the London Classic Car Show taking place at Olympia in London from 24-26 February. On the 25th, Historics Auctioneers will play host to the London Classic Car Show Sale.
As Official Auction Partner to this, the capital’s premier classic car event at Olympia, West London, they will offer for sale 100 fine and varied classic and collector cars at the heart of the venue that’s been steeped in motoring history for more than a century. The auction is due to commence at midday on the 25th.
Moving into early March and we have an auction in the US to look forward to, the Amelia Auction hosted by Broad Arrow Auctions from 3-4 March 2023.
This will be the inaugural Amelia Auction for Broad Arrow at the stunning Ritz-Carlton Amelia Island. Taking place alongside one of the most highly anticipated concours events of the year, the Amelia is a multiple award-winning motoring event, which is widely considered to be among the finest in the country and, in fact, remains a perennial favourite for leading collectors and enthusiasts.
The Amelia celebrates driving and car culture with everything from Cars & Community to the world-renowned Concours d’Elegance, where more than 450 cars participated in the Concours d’elegance event in 2022.
Later in March, Classic Car Auctions will host the Practical Classics Classic Car & Restoration Show Sale at the annual event of the same name, held at the NEC in Birmingham, UK. CCA are delighted to be returning to the event as the show's official auction partner for the 8th year.
This promises to be a magnificent sale of Classics and Modern Classic cars over two days on Saturday 25th & Sunday 26th of March.
Into April and Hobbs Parker will organize the first of their three scheduled online classic car & motorcycle auctions for this year, taking place from 19-20 April. A varied selection of classic cars, motorcycles and parts can be found at this auction, with pre-auction viewing possible at their Ashford auction centre in Kent, if needed in addition to the website information.
Finally, to round off this selection, we head back to the United States, where April will see the first auction of the year from Vicari Auction - their Biloxi Auction taking place from 21-22 April.
The event will take place at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum and Convention Center, Biloxi, MS, where you can be guaranteed two days of auctioning bliss.
A busy few months ahead, with many more auctions taking place worldwide, where you are sure to find some great deals.
