That seems like a long time to wait.

They are making us wait to hype it up and get more interest when they go live

I was similar to you on quite a few of those

Good luck some lovely cars there. I'd pick the 3.2 Clubbie. So many people I knew around these cars like the CS. Andy Gidvani RIP

I know the owner and have had good look at his gobsmacking cars.
No doubt the descriptions will soon land and give insight- but rest assured, all and everything is as perfectly perfect as one could imagine.
They are all best of breed and cared for with cotton gloves by a true car loving nut case (and OPC)

A while back managed to relieve the collection of just the one !

That’s stunning - and the preparation looks the best I’ve seen.

...and they're off!

Sport Classic already at a (frankly insane) 210K, and the '74 2.7 is only 24K.

Are they all at no reserve, or did I imagine that?

I asked the CC team yesterday and they confirmed all at no reserve

I think I can say goodbye to the dream of ever owning a CGT if that’s the new/sustained price level

Very unusual that level of CXX options combined. Don’t know what it sold for at IC but looks like it could make some interesting viewing. They seem to be really gaining momentum.

I think it was Eur 850k...I saw the car when it was at Differs. Wasn’t there looking at it though ! Took a few months to sell.

I have bet an ice cream with pal that the CGT breaches £800k - some of the models selling could make new U.K. £highs. Crazy times !

Just can't deal with the black gear knob, will have to pass this time...

Looks like a 10 year gap in servicing between 2009 and 2019 from the images of the book. If you were buying to drive this would be a concern, although I suspect one like this will end up as a non driving asset.

Payment document in the photos for £717k interesting to see if they make a profit.

Somewhat unfair, black knobs matter too.

Interesting that Hodari_Olanrewaju is bidding for 20 of the Leonard Collection alone. Must be keen...

The Ferrari collector?

[seawise]

some extraordinarily strong bids registered for much of the Leonard collection and it's still got 3 days to run.....

And they are all finishing at 5 minute intervals meaning once someone misses out on one they still have time to bid for the next one. Very smart by CC.
