The recent Bridge House Car Sale proved to be a roaring success, with a packed yard, enthusiastic bidders, and a standout selection of classic and modern enthusiast vehicles going under the hammer. Hosted by Hammer Timed Ltd, the event attracted collectors, restorers, and casual buyers alike – with results that exceeded expectations and set the bar high for future sales.

From low-mileage icons to quirky classics and tempting restoration projects, this was a car auction that had something for everyone – and the atmosphere on the day matched the quality of the stock on offer.


🔥 Sale Highlights – From Subarus to Soft Tops

One of the biggest results of the day came from a true modern classic:

  • Subaru Impreza WRX STI – With just 40,000 miles on the clock, this iconic turbocharged saloon sparked a fierce bidding war both in person and online. It eventually sold for an impressive £14,000, reflecting the growing demand for clean, low-mileage performance cars.

Other notable entries included:

  • Ford Escort Convertible – With under 30k miles and an electric hood, it was a prime example that found a new home after fast-paced bidding.

  • Peugeot 504 Rally-Style Saloon – This head-turning retro favorite didn’t disappoint, selling well above its guide thanks to its rally-inspired look.

  • Honda 250N Super Dream & AJS Motorcycle – Both drew strong interest from classic bike collectors.

  • Bedford Pickup – A true vintage gem, ideal for restoration, snapped up by an enthusiast ready to give it a new lease of life.


🛠️ Projects and Everyday Classics Find New Homes

This sale wasn’t just about showpieces – affordable project cars and tidy runarounds also sold strongly:

  • Proton Impian (2002) – Proved there’s still a niche market for unique 2000s saloons.

  • Vauxhall Astra Automatic – A smart buy for everyday use or future classic status.

  • Renault Clio Sport 172 Track Car – Lightweight fun and ready to go, this got snapped up quickly.
