A healthy example of Fiat's drop-dead gorgeous Dino will spearhead the CCA sale on March 23-24 during Britain's Practical Classics Classic Car and Restoration Show
The Practical Classics Classic Car and Restoration Show will be held on March 22-24, 2019 at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham, UK. Featuring over 1300 stunning classic cars, 350 exhibitors and traders, 170 car clubs, and live working demonstrations, this is one of the biggest shows on the calendar – especially if you are looking to buy a collector car.
Giving show goers the opportunity to own a stunning classic of their own, the show will also be the site of the CCA Practical Classics Classic Car and Restoration Show Sale on the March 23-24. A wide array of machines will be offered, and everything from hot hatches to Aston Martins are among the vehicles up for bids.
Gary Dunne from CCA commented “We are delighted to have such a wide variety of cars for auction at the Practical Classics Classic Car and Restoration Show. From stunning show cars to real luxury from Rolls Royce and Aston Martin."
"One of the stand out cars has to be the rare Fiat Dino Coupe, if you cannot afford a Ferrari this could be the next best thing. We also have a spectacular array of hot hatches and a wide variety of Jaguars from across the range. I am really looking forward to seeing what these cars will fetch in a few weeks time.”
The aforementioned Fiat Dino 2.4L Coupe features a stunning Passion Red Metallic exterior over a tan interior. It underwent a £30,000 restoration in the mid 2000s and, with only 34,344km on the clock, is expected to fetch £50,000 - £60,000. Also being offered are two example of a car made famous by the blockbuster film Back To The Future, alongside the controversy surrounding its founder, John DeLorean.
Both DeLoreans are low 30,000 mile examples and are estimated to sale for £20,000-£30,000. Among other notable cars being offered are a 1958 VW Beetle show car with an estimated value of £14,000-£18,000 and a 1985 Opel Manta 400 Tribute worth an estimated £20,000 to £25,000.
Although sharing a venue with the car show, the auction and viewing will take place at a closed event and will require tickets to enter. Check out the official website for all the details, including a full list of all the cars you will not want to miss.
