Well sold? Lots that exceeded their estimates by the largest percentage

While the headlines often focus on the top-tier sales, the Spicers Auctioneers Classic Cars and Motorcycles also featured several entry-level opportunities.

The lot sold for the lowest hammer price was the "1960 Singer Gazelle, Series IIIA, 1494cc", which changed hands for just £1,092. For enthusiasts looking to enter the market, these lower-value lots often represent the most accessible way to start a collection.

Well bought? Lots that sold under their estimates by the largest percentage

Not every lot found a new home at the Spicers Auctioneers Classic Cars and Motorcycles. A notable example was the 2005 Bentley Continental GT, which failed to meet reserve despite carrying its estimated range.

When high-profile lots like this don't hammer sold, it often indicates a temporary gap between seller expectations and current bidder appetite. These unsold listings now represent prime opportunities for post-auction "Off-Market" deals, where savvy buyers can often negotiate directly with the consignor.
