The grand starting line: Historics is gearing up for its 2025 auction program opener, and it's bringing together an impressive array of vehicles, catering to every taste and wallet size. This extravaganza is set to take place at the renowned Ascot Racecourse, promising an irresistible offering for fans of British icons.
Two MGBs for contrasting tastes: With a £17,000-20,000 estimate, the sleek 1968 GT on wire wheels is sure to catch the eyes of purists. On the other hand, an electric-converted 1980 GT with a Jaguar i-Pace drivetrain, priced between £18,000-24,000, offers a more avant-garde approach.
Rolls-Royce on a roll: If you're a traditionalist, a 1957 Silver Cloud I with power steering and a sharp, maroon leather interior, valued at £19,000-26,000, might be right up your alley. Alternatively, for those eyeing a piece of Rolls-Royce history, a 2000 Silver Seraph, the final Crewe-built Rolls, comes at an estimated price of £16,000-20,000.
British beauties and German grunt: A 1963 Rover P4 110 exudes regal elegance, while Jaguar fans have two striking options: a 1968 420 or a 1958 Mk1 3.4. A 1971 Triumph TR6 'CP' promises adrenaline-pumping thrills, and a concours-ready 1967 Austin Mini Cooper Mk1 998 is bound to turn heads.
Versatile Germans: Highlights from Germany's best include a 1980 Mercedes R107 350SL with an Olive Green interior, valued at £14,000-17,000, and a rarer, more exhilarating 2006 Brabus SV12 BiTurbo, one of fewer than 20 produced, estimated to fetch £52,000-62,000. Also, don't miss the 1993 VW Corrado VR6 with the automatic gearbox, and a range of BMWs like the 1993 E30 318i Convertible and the 1974 2002tii.
Bargains galore: Keep your eyes peeled for hidden treasures like the 1988 Bertone X1/9, a 1999 Maserati 3200GTA, and the quirky 1993 Peugeot 106 Key West with just 709 miles on the clock.
