Forecourt Full Again! |
Saturday 21st November was the last motorcycle and car auction of 2009 and what a sale. With only 26 bikes entered, numbers were down, but the 18 cars parked on the makeshift forecourt was a good turnout.
With bikes and cars of all ages, shapes and sizes there really was something for everyone, and punters were digging deep into their pockets to buy them with some fierce competition in the saleroom.
Spares and automobilia were also a large part of the sale, with engines, panels, frames, dash fittings, speedometers, mascots, grill badges, leathers and much more. The sale featured live online bidding, which livened up the proceedings a little.
Top price of the day was for a 1921 Norton Big Four Motorcycle which made £12,100. Other motorcycle and spares prices of interest are as follows Triumph T100SS £3,500, BSA Goldstar Scrambler £2,600, Royal Enfield J2 £1,700, Triumph Tiger Cub £1,100, Custom Bike £800, Ducati M600 Monster £780, Honda CB200 £760, Villiers Engine £180, Matchless Frame £140, BSA Goldstar Petrol Tank £75, BSA M22 Gear Box and Clutch £50, Silverking Motorcycle Lamp £35.
Back on the four wheel side of things, top price was paid for a Triumph TR4A, which made a very respectable £6,100 when knocked down to an internet bidder.
