Bridge Classic Cars Directors, Gordon and Craig have spent the day at the Imperial War Museum, Duxford at the H&H 30th Anniversary Sale.
Throughout the day, they have seen a wide range of interesting cars. One car in particular that caught their attention was the extremely rare Aston Martin 2/2.6-litre Sports ‘DB1’. As you can see from the photos below, this will certainly be an incredible car once its new owner takes on the project.
As this was the 30th anniversary of H&H, the event was always going to be a memorable one so the ‘DB1’ wasn’t the only car of note. Other impressive lots include a 1963 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud III Drophead Coupe, a 1953 Aston Martin DB2 Vantage, a 1954 Bentley R-Type Halse ‘Straight Eight’ Special, a 1935/38 SS 100 3 1/2 Litre Special, a 1927 Bentley Tourer, and so many more.
As well as the incredible cars up for sale, there was also a drinks reception, music and guest speakers. One of these guest speakers was TV presenter and motorsport expert, Andy Talbot.
H&H have done a fantastic job in making this a spectacle to celebrate their 30 years of success.
What We Purchased
The main purpose of attending the auction was to top up our current collection of competition cars for Bridge Classic Cars Competitions. The day was a success as we added two more to the lineup in the form of our 2007 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Sportshift Coupe with less than 30,000 miles on the clock and our 1996 MG R V8.
Once these arrive at the Bridge Classic Cars workshop, they will be assessed and inspected before being won by lucky winners very soon.
