If you're new to the world of classic car ownership or interested in expanding an existing collection, the inaugural Salon Privé Sale has something very, very special in store for you. Just announced, Salon Privé along with their partners, Silverstone Auctions are thrilled to present for sale a consignment of one of Europe’s finest collections of road going classic cars yet to come to market.
Henry Pearman, the founder and CEO of Eagle – the world’s premier Jaguar E-Type specialist – has overseen the creation of this unique collection of high quality and original cars, known as the
Stradale Collection which features 14 sensational historic road cars. Undoubtedly, one of the stars of the collection on offer is considered to be one of the all-time 'ultimate' Ferraris – a very rare 1971 Ferrari 365GTS/4 Daytona Spyder, estimated at between £1.75 and £2.25 million.
The car, 1 of just 122 ever produced, was delivered new in 1971 to US casino owner William F. Harrah and has covered just 3,955 miles from new! As a testament to its supreme original state, the car was granted Ferrari Classiche certification in 2009 and is presented in black with red leather interior. See below within the Salon Prive Salé 'news' section for further details on this incredible collection.
THE RARE 1963 ATS 2500 GT 3.0 LITRE COUPÉ
A sensational car, the ATS 2500 was a technical masterpiece. Inspired by a competition-specification chrome-molybdenum tubular chassis, the ATS 2500 GT was capable of exceeding 160mph.
THE DECADENT1993 ISOTTA FRASCHINI TIPO 8A
An expression of technical and artistic virtuosity. Presented at the Paris Auto Salon in 1933, the Isotta Fraschini Tipo 8A was unveiled to much fanfare. A dramatic vehicle and one we are very excited to see.
THE ALLURING 1965 FERRARI 275 GTS
#07681 is a fine example of the rare RHD Ferrari 275 GTS. A well respected Ferrari both in the UK and internationally. The quality of its restoration is second to none. A masterclass in Italian automotive design.
AHEAD OF THE PACK – THE ABARTH 695 BIPOSTO
With a 190hp 1.4 T-jet engine the 695 Abarth Biposto offers best in class performance. A power to weight ratio of 5.2 kg/hp and a 0 to 62mph time of just 5.9 seconds, the 695 Biposto is as ferocious as it is breathtaking.
THE ASTONISHING PAGANI HUAYRA
Awarded ‘Hypercar of the year 2012’ by Top Gear Magazine, the Huayra – named after Wayra Tata ‘God of the Winds’, is yet again set to astound and amaze. Part of our hypercar collection, the Huayra is not to be missed.
AMERICAN MUSCLE – THE FORD MUSTANG CONCEPT
The new Ford Mustang fastback and convertible models – the first ever confirmed to go on sale in Europe in almost 50 years of production – promise world class levels of performance and refinement.
THE SALON PRIVÉ SALE – PRESENTING THE ‘STRADALE’ COLLECTION
Other iconic Italian models include one of just 349 Ferrari F50s to be built, this example with just 6,219 miles recorded and estimated at between £600,000 and £750,000, as well as its predecessor, the iconic F40, with only 10,738 miles driven and in exemplary order – also estimated at between £600,000 and £750,000. An example of the original supercar, and regarded by many as the best, is an exceptionally original but mechanically fresh 1968 Lamborghini Miura P400 presented in its original striking yellow and estimated at between £600,000 and £750,000 too, which will also be going under the hammer.
