Spotlight: Gooding & Company’s London Auction

Cars, Features I By Justin Cornelison I August 26, 2022

After the conclusion of Gooding & Company‘s 18th annual Pebble Beach Auction during the Concours d’Elegance last weekend, achieving a total figure of $109,452,370, the auction house will be holding another sale next weekend in London.  On Friday, August 19 and Saturday, August 20, the globally renowned firm sold 28 cars for figures well over $1,000,000, and set five new world records at auction.  Throughout the weekend, 135 of 158 lots were sold, culminating in an 85% sales rate and an average price of $810,758 per lot.

In lead-up to London’s auction, we have selected our favorite 10-cars which are being listed for sale.  With 40 astonishing vehicles available, we found it as tough a task as it was when we did the same for their Pebble Beach auction.  Would you have selected the same cars?
