Important Information

Webb’s Classic and Collectible December car sale is one of our largest ever car auctions. This catalogue is a collectors’ delight, with a magnificent range of some of the finest and most fascinating automobiles in the nation. Recent restrictions in Auckland led to the unfortunate cancellation of our October auction. Nevertheless, we are sure that the range and quality of vehicles presented in this auction will more than make up for it. This year, the classic car and motorcycle market has remained strong. The rate we receive calls and emails from both buyers and sellers is heartening, and indicative of robust market sentiment. As summer is here, and fewer restrictions with it, the peak season for enjoying the road in a classic vehicle has arrived. We have no doubt that the perfect machine for your summer motoring pleasure is within these pages. Collectors’ cars offer a unique form of investment. Ownership of one (or many) of these vehicles brings the satisfaction of the exceptional engineering behind them – these are machines made by the world’s finest engineers and designers to bring the ultimate in speed, luxury, or practical utility. From a fiscal perspective, international estate and property consultancy Knight Frank recently found that automobiles appreciated more over the past 10 years than any other collectable asset class – rare Scotch whisky aside. Collectors’ cars provided an astonishing 334% return on investment, outstripping nearly every other benchmark. And this is to say nothing of the added value of transportation.
