On Saturday, May 9th Bonhams will celebrate its 10th Anniversary auction sale at the Aston Martin Works Service facility, at the Company’s spiritual home in Newport Pagnell.
Over the past decade Bonhams has sold over £16 million worth of Aston Martins and related automobilia often at record breaking levels, making them the worldwide leader in this sector.
This auction is dedicated uniquely to the Aston Martin and Lagonda marques and marks a very special point in the calendar for motoring enthusiasts. Bonhams work closely with the Aston Martin Owner’s Club who also schedule their annual International Concours d’elegance over the same weekend. Consequently, the Newport Pagnell sale attracts the most fervent Aston Martin collectors from across the world who often bring their own Aston Martin cars with them.
In 2008, Bonhams had its most successful sale to date that generated a record £4.7m. Bonhams offered a 1961 Aston Martin DB4 GT Coupé under the hammer and achieved £1,079,500 – a new world auction record for the model.
James Knight, International Managing Director of the Bonhams Motoring Department comments on the sale: “It is hard to believe we’ll be returning to Newport Pagnell for the tenth time. The support and collective effort that Aston Martin Lagonda Limited, the AMOC and Bonhams put into this sale has ensured its continued success.”
Aston Martin Works Service will once again offer their ‘premier client package’ to those looking to celebrate the 10th Anniversary sale in true style. The package includes reserved parking, entrance with catalogue, morning refreshments, followed by a delicious luncheon served in the marquee and priority reserved seating in the saleroom. You will be given a bespoke enamel badge on the day for ease of access and afternoon refreshments. Tickets are limited to 100 and cost £155 per person.
