London RM Auction

RM Auctions at Battersea Park on Wednesday October 29

If you fancy dipping into the classic market, or just want to have a look at some stunning exotica, then mark October 29 in your diary. RM Auctions makes its return to Battersea Evolution for the 2008 Automobiles of London auction. You’ll find all sorts, from a 1924 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost to a modified Suzuki Wagon R, but inevitably the cars wearing a Prancing Horse will be the main highlights. There’s a 1965 Ferrari 250LM (estimated to fetch £2.5-2.8 million), a 1985 288 GTO (£280-340,000) and one of the last three short wheelbase 250 GT California Spiders off the production line (£3-3.5 million) up for grabs. A 1997 McLaren F1 is also up for auction and expected to top the million pound mark. If that’s a bit of a stretch, a 1998 Mini Cooper S Works is also on sale – with a more modest £6-8000 estimated price tag. If you want to go along, the auction runs at London’s Battersea Evolution on October 29, with previews of the cars available from the day before.
