Bonhams Revival Auction Porsches:

I expect the buyer will keep it for a while and let the noise subside then sell it on as a pucka RS again!

Unless it's anyone on here of course. In which case I humbly apologies for the character slight!

Perhaps we should take a straw poll to find out what people on here would have paid for "1316".

To start the ball rollling I would def have bought it at 40. Thought about it and probably bought it at 50. Not bought it at 60.

I note that Bonhams have just marked this car as 'sold for £60,900 inclusive of buyers premium'

As Nick has said it's all very complicated with auction houses but I think that £60,900 inclusive of buyers premium probably equates to a bid in the room of just under £55k? or £54k?.
So the seller (after sellers fees, VAT and entry costs) would get less than £50k. Maybe £49k?

And yet, he probably is quite relieved....
