Anglia car auctions

Cleaned up the garage, found parts laying around, but it turned out to be a complete Volvo 480? If you want to sell your car (480 only) you can place an advert here.

Hi all, there appears to be a decent GT coming up for auction on 22nd Aug. More details coming apparently, no reserve. Also a 440 turbo with a £5000 est!!

I love that 440, luckily it's white and low miles so won't feel too sad that I will miss it, wondering if they will take the Rover for consignment? Or have I left it too late?

GT looks lovely.

The Saab 900 SE Turbo with only 10K on the clock looks fab too - another real 'gentlemans' (and gentlewoman's) carriage :)

Video of the GT...

HERE

Looks quite smart... but needs a few things... drivers door bin for one!

On the walkaround, looks like someone has replaced the standard nearside amber side marker with an aftermarket screw-on for a trailer :shock:

I love the styling of the Aston Martin Lagonda.

TBH, a rear light cracked would write off a 480....

Sold for £1220 and that was including the buyers premium. Aforementioned issues not withstanding that sounds like a bit of a bargain to me.

And yes the 440 did sell......for £5778!

1995 Volvo 480 Celebration (sold)
