Brough Superior Smashes World Record

Report: H&H, Haynes International Motor Museum

H&H is celebrating the completion of another successful sale at The Haynes International Motor Museum in Somerset. The auction generated sales of more than £1m for a selection of classic motor cars, motorcycles and automobilia.

The auction, including buyers from South America and Asia, set a number of world records. The 2008 world record achieved for a Brough Superior SS100 was raised by some £120,000, fetching over £286,000. Other significant highlights included, £77,000 for the 1934 Alvis Speed 20SB Tourer and £40,700 for Jenson Button’s beautiful Honda S600.

Simon Hope, H&H’s Managing Director and head auctioneer, returned to the UK on Monday after finishing fourth in class, on the gruelling Peking to Paris rally. He commented: 'It has been a fantastic end to the week for the whole H&H team, which has seen us complete our successful assault on the Peking to Paris Rally and hold an extremely successful auction. Everyone in the H&H team, can feel very proud of today’s results and for putting on such a fantastic event. It goes without saying that I would like to thank all of the sellers and buyers and we look forward to welcoming them to one of our auctions in the near future. The team’s focus will now shift to ensuring our last event of 2010 at the idyllic Pavilion Gardens, Buxton maintains our high standards.'

H&H’s next auction, and its last event of the year, will take place at the Pavilion Gardens, Buxton in Derbyshire on the 8th December and is currently inviting sellers to consign items and buyers to pre-register for the auction catalogue.
