H&H CLASSIC AUCTIONS

12.11.2007 H&H’s Final Sale Of The Year Will Be A Sea Of Red

FERRARI 365 GTB DAYTONA 1973

Heading the entries is a pristine Rosso Red 1973 365 GTB/4 Daytona. One of only 154 RHD examples, it carries the suitably appropriate registration number 365 GT and an estimate of £140,000-160,000.

Following their record price for a RHD Ferrari 330 GTC at the Duxford Imperial War Museum last month, H&H are bringing no less than six classic Ferraris to market in their final sale of the year at Buxton, November 20/21.

Heading the entries is a pristine Rosso Red 1973 365 GTB/4 Daytona. One of only 154 RHD examples, it carries the suitably appropriate registration number 365 GT and an estimate of £140,000-160,000. Then there’s the 1972 246 Dino GT, which the present owner purchased when it was just one year old and has still completed a mere 20,400 miles from new - £68,000-75,000. Also on offer are: a 1988 Testarossa that’s covered only 16,000 miles to date; a stunning 1986 288 GTO Evocation based on a 328 GTS; a Mondial Coupe that has travelled, wait for it, just 3,500 miles in its entire life, and a 1986 412i.

H&H Classic Auctions is dynamically dedicated to the historic collector motor car market and they are the largest specialist auction house of historic motor cars in Europe. Simon Hope and Mark Hamilton felt strongly that the established auction houses were not serving the classic motor car customer adequately, and launched H&H Classic Auctions Limited in 1993. As Directors and long-term classic motor car enthusiasts, they felt that the high commissions and other charges levied did not equate to the standard of service delivered. Using a combination of experience of the people, the motor cars and the market and upon their in-depth knowledge of the auction industry, both Simon and Mark were convinced that they could provide a better all round service at a vastly reduced cost

The H&H ethos still runs true today and they have been proven to be a major 'thorn' in the Establishment's side. They have offered some of the world's best motor cars, achieving world record prices in the process, and they still offer to both buyers and sellers a standard of service that is unrivalled in the classic motor car auction market place - it is just coincidence that it also happens to be considerably cheaper.
