Sold for £21,508 including commission, achieved in what seemed to be a difficult sale – not bad value, I think.

As will be clear from last week’s article on the 10th Hampton Court Concours of Elegance, the event attracts some of the world’s most exclusive classic cars. It also attracts some of the UK’s most high-end deale […]

A little surprised to find this didn’t sell on the day – still available via the auctioneers.

Unsuitable as they are for most European cities, roads and especially parking spaces, here at ViaRETRO we retain a soft spot for many American classics – in my case, mostly ‘60’s cars such as the Mustang, Dod […]

The Hampton Court Concours of Elegance has been a fixture for me over the past few years – due to fortunate timing, this was one of the few events that managed to be held without interruption despite Covid – and […]
