MARKET VIEW
Brightwells, ‘Timed-Out’ internet bidding from 7pm Thursday 24 September sale, held behind closed doors at Leominster.
Some 78 classics and 15 bikes can be viewed on-site by appointment on 21-24 September. Among them 11 vehicles from Vauxhall Heritage reserve stock being dispersed online without reserve due to space constraints and an upcoming relocation of its core collection. The oldest lot to be captured on video is a part-dismantled 1924 M Type 14/40 Melton, complete with dickie seat and the youngest, a last generation Corsa Black Edition of 2013 vintage. A time-warp Chevette L has only done 8281 miles from new in 1982. A previously revived 1931 Bedford WHB 13-seater coach is in need of further recommissioning before nostalgic employment on-screen. A 1952 Riley RMB consigned by another vendor has performed on TV in the Father Brown series and a 1933 Rover from another source rallied pre-WW2 on the RAC, Scottish and Welsh.
