A new auction record was set at BCA Blackbushe today, and now we all know what a used Bugatti Veyron is worth.

 

The car was the 15^th built and the first in the UK, having had three registered keepers with “present owners, the bank”. First registered in July 2006, there were 7,341 kilometres on the clock, services in 2007 and 2008 and a service check in February 2010. It could also be warranted for 12 or 24 months after a further check, at the buyer’s expense, of course.

 

Bidding started at £550,000, progressing rapidly to £600,000 at which point Internet bids in £500 increments were invited to all BCA account holders throughout Europe. That way the bids slowly rose to £625,000 where the hammer came down. So the price was fairly achieved and genuinely sets the level for a four year old Veyron

 

I’ve listed the supercars sold today. Then the ‘Fast & Furious’ section, which is quite interesting because, although the auction halls were packed with public, trade bidding was consistent, as you can see from the larger sections like the Mercedes SLKs.

 

Make up your mind where the bargains were.  Cheapest car of the day was a 2004 MGTF at just £2,200. But it was a warm, sunny day with a huge choice of summer cars and these prices must reflect that.

 

Some of the late Audis obviously received what’s known as ‘support’ from Audi dealers, wanting to keep price levels healthy. But RS4s seem to have dipped a bit.

 

If I’d have been buying I think I might have waved my catalogue for the 22k mile 2006/56 Mercedes SL500 388PS 7-speed (the best SL they ever made), that sold about £4,000 under trade book.

 

(As usual, ‘s’ means sold. ‘p’ means top provisional bid, ‘pc’ means provisional, but close. ‘n/s’ means not sold. ‘n/w’ means miles not warranted. ‘MNW’ means unknown mileage. ‘dmg’ means damaged. D/R means damaged and repaired. ‘fl’ means facelift. ‘H/T’ means hardtop. Extras like ‘lthr’ and ‘sat’ are specified when they are not standard.)
