A 1959 Austin Mini Se7en De Luxe Saloon, believed to be the oldest surviving unrestored Mini, sold for an impressive £40,250 on Monday (30 April 2012) in Bonhams Sale of Collectors’ Motor Cars and Automobilia at the RAF Museum, Hendon. Having attracted the attention of press worldwide, this amazing survivor sold for over three times its estimate of £12,000 – 15,000.
A car with remarkable provenance, the 1950 Pontiac Chieftain Silver Streak Convertible, which was owned by Keith Richards while The Rolling Stones were based on the Cote d’Azur in the 1970s, also exceeded its estimate, selling for £37,950.
Top prices, in a sale that realised £2,002,303 in total with 86% sold by lot, were also paid for a 1957 Bentley S-Series Continental Sports Saloon (£191,900); a 1924 Bentley 3-Litre Speed Model Tourer (£163,900); and a 1969 AC 428 Coupé (£77,660).
A 1965 Jaguar XKE 4.2-Litre Series I Roadster sold for £61,980; a 1956 Jaguar XK140SE Drophead Coupé, sold in aid of the charity 3&s –Turn The Tide of Suicide, £51,667; and a 1938 Rolls-Royce Phantom III Touring Limousine, £50,600.
John Polson, Specialist in Bonhams Motor Car Department, said: “The RAF Museum again proved to be an ideal location for a sale of collectors’ motor cars. It attracted worldwide bidding resulting in strong prices across the board, particularly for cars with a strong provenance or cultural significance.” Lot | Year Make Model | Chassis# | Estimate | Result | 301 | 1972 Rover 3500S Sports Saloon | 48100838A | £3,000 - 5,000 | £2,530 | 302 | 1977 Triumph Stag | LD43879A | £4,000 - 6,000 | £5,060 | 303 | 1975 Triumph TR6 Roadster | CR59740 | £3,000 - 5,000 | £8,050 | 304 | 1948 Hillman Minx Phase II Drophead Coupé | 1884243HCO | £3,000 - 5,000 | £1,380 | 305 | 1981 Bristol Beaufighter Convertible | 7890279Z | £5,000 - 7,000 | £5,980 | 306 | 1961 Jaguar Mk2 3.8-Litre Saloon | 207032DN | £12,000 - 15,000 | £15,525 | 307 | 1959 Austin Mini Se7en De Luxe Saloon | AA2S7/108 | £12,000 - 15,000 | £40,250 | 308 | 1966 Volvo P1800S Coupé | 16846 | £14,000 - 18,000 | £21,850 | 309 | 1975 Alfa Romeo Montreal 2.6-Litre Coupé | 1440227 | £15,000 - 20,000 | £18,975 | 310 | 1975 Aston Martin V8 Series 3 Saloon | V8/11345/
