W h y consign your c ar to the S alon Prive S alé ? In its inaugural year, the Salon Privé Sale broke world records. The idea of creating a JV to combine the expertise of Silverstone Auctions with the reputation of Salon Privé paid off and the Sale was a sensational success to which the numbers below testify:
•
Total Sales • £9,9 million
•
Bentley R-Type Continental Fastback • £1 million
•
Ferrari 365 GTS Daytona Spider • £2,217 million
•
Aston Martin DB6 Volante • £954,500
•
Ferrari 250 GT/L “Lusso” • £1,8975 million
•
Jaguar E-Type Series 1 3,8 Roadster • £212,750
Salon Privé is a magnet for UK and international car buyers and collectors and cars consigned to the Sale have the benefit of exposure not only to specific Sale visitors, but also those attending Salon Privé itself. They also benefit from the support and promotion of a far-reaching international PR and Marketing campaign as well as targeted HTML and brochure mailings to our database. Industry-beating commissions also played a big part in the sale’s success.
1968 Aston Martin DB6 Vantage Volante • £825,000-£925,000
Ne w f or 2015 With the new venue comes an exciting new, updated event configuration that sees the Sale Marquee directly adjoining the main event. Two access points into the Marquee allow guests from Salon Privé to view the cars but also a second ‘public’ entrance allows Blenheim Palace visitors to also have a view.
1958 AC Ace Bristol • £180,000-£220,000
1962 Ferrari 250 GTE • £300,000-£350,000
Rather than hosting the Sale mid-week, this year’s Sale will take place on Friday evening allowing two full days of preview and furthermore allowing more guests to attend, being the end of the working week. Early signs are very positive with some exceptional cars already consigned so if you are interested in selling this September, let us talk you through the options and benefits of the Salon Privé Sale.
