Purpose

I will try my best to provide detailed info on various cars and what is like to live with them, I have already produced a few for Jaguar-car-forums, I will do my best to be unbiased, but it will be hard for some cars. I will re-produce press releases and copy from other motoring news.

Five Unique cars to go under the hammer at the Silverstone Auctions Salon Prive Sale on 4th September.

  • Five unique cars – all from one meticulous collector – set to feature at this exclusive auction on 4 September offered with No Reserve
  • Each classic is ultra-low mileage with huge specification and has arrived fresh from storage in Germany
  • Collection includes a beautifully maintained 1985 Mercedes-Benz 280SE with 5,700km plus a 1975 Mercedes-Benz 280SLC with just 16,500km
  • But star of the collection is a 1986 Porsche 911 Supersport which has travelled 743km since new
Silverstone Auctions’ most prestigious sale of the year at Salon Privé on 4 September features a dream line-up of rare cars – and a host of incredible low-mileage models from one unique collection have now bolstered it.

The star of the show is an as-new Porsche 911 Supersport, with just 743km on the clock – just one of five stunning cars to come from one very meticulous collector.

The owner has had all five since new in Germany and the vehicles - Lots 201 to 205 – have just arrived on UK shores. They will open proceedings at Salon Privé, presenting buyers with a unique opportunity to bid on these ultra-low mileage, left-hand-drive models from Mercedes-Benz, Daimler and Porsche.


First under the hammer is one of the most immaculate examples of the Mercedes-Benz 280SE ever seen. Given the model’s popularity during the 1980s, it is rare to find one with such little use; however, this particular model registered in 1985 has covered just 5,700km during its lifetime. 

All registration, service and maintenance work is documented, along with the original order form, and presents an ideal opportunity to own a unique ‘nearly-new’, 30-year-old car.

Like its saloon brethren, this Mercedes-Benz 560SEC was also an ‘80s icon and majored on luxury and style. 

This particular car was first registered in 1986 and supplied new to Germany where it covered a mere 38,000km. All original factory paperwork and service history verify the car’s excellent condition.

Supplied new in Germany in 1975, this rare manual Mercedes-Benz 280SLC has just 16,500km on the clock. 

As a result, this car boasts an immaculate red leather interior and unmarked white paintwork. A large history file containing all documentation for its entire 40-year history is included and offered without reserve.

An altogether different prospect is a 1988 Daimler Double Six Series III. Three standout highlights are central to the car’s appeal, including an individual specification Nardi steering wheel, a full respray in Metallic Blue and magnificent chrome wire wheels. 

This Daimler has travelled just 3,297km since new and the overall condition is impeccable. It’s surely one of the finest examples of the marque ever seen.

The star of this five-car collection is a near factory fresh 1986 Porsche 911 SuperSport with an astonishing 743km on the odometer. Silverstone Auctions is presenting a rare opportunity to own an impeccably well-maintained and practically brand new classic Porsche. A genuine collectors’ item offered without reserve.

These five examples form part of an exclusive 60-plus consignment of cars to be auctioned at the Salon Privé Sale on 4th September.
