A couple of world records were set at the Silverstone Auctions’ NEC sale at the Lancaster Insurance Classic Motor Show, at the NEC in Birmingham on 12th and 13th November 2016. Silverstone Auctions has established itself as something of a specialist Porsche auction house of late, and this was evidenced by the mouth-watering array of cars for sale from Stuttgart, several of which achieved new benchmark prices.
Competition for a pair of 911 (930) Turbo SE Flachbau cars was fierce, while the highest value car at the sale was a 1957 Porsche 356 A T1 Speedster. Benefitting from encouraging growth in Porsche products, no fewer than three 912s went under the hammer, the highest one going for a whisker short of £30k.
