Silverstone Classic is over for another year, the crowds have gone home and the racing cars turned off. After what was a great weekend of racing and classic car appreciation we can all look at it as time well spent. What you may have missed, however, was the auction taking place in the Wing throughout Saturday and Sunday.

The sale was well attended and had some gorgeous classics for sale, with some fetching suitably eye watering prices. Here is our roundup of some of the best cars that sold, or didn’t sell over the weekend.

1991 Vauxhall Lotus Carlton
Sold for: £72,000

2012 McLaren MP4-12C
Sold for: £96,750

Although these early cars had a few technical gremlins this is still an immense amount of car for the money. Looking inside the interior looks dated and out of touch with the red leather on blue exterior, and really shows how far the brand has come when you compare this to the 720S and the change made in just five years.

2008 Ferrari 430 Scuderia
Sold for: £112,500

In what seems to be the supercar bargain pairing of the millennium this ‘Scud’ with a tickle over 30k miles sold for less than a second hand Audi R8. Maybe this auction wasn’t well positioned for the supercar crowd, it was certainly well positioned for the plucky buyer. The 430 Scuderia needs no introduction and for those up to date with current prices will know that £112,500 is a steal. Congratulations to the new owner – we’re not jealous at all….

1987 Ford Capri 280 Brooklands
Sold for: £55,125

1966 Mercedes-Benz 250SE Coupé
Sold for: £37,125

1972 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona EX-Elton John
Sold for: £551,250

So there we have it, the best sales from Silverstone Auctions Silverstone Classic sale. There were also a series of unsold cars at the sale, view the full sold and unsold list on the Silverstone auctions website HERE.
