Hi All:
I"m having trouble accessing the full results from the sale, but one hit I did get says the car did not sell. Does anyone have confirmation either way?
Thanks, Larry

lot passed. did not sell.

price estimate optimistic?

I watched the Plus 4 (not 4/4 as erroneously stated) on the live feed...

They started the bidding at £28,000.

There was a bid at £29,000 and then another bid at £30,000.

No one was prepared to go higher than 30K as the auctioneer looked for 31 but didn't get it.

The lot was therefore passed as nowhere near (the optimistic) estimate.

Perhaps Guy can tell us...

Cheers,

Mark
