September 2025 delivered another outstanding result at Hampson Auctions’ Classic, Performance & Supercar Auction, held in the stunning surrounds of Bolesworth Castle.
The glorious sunshine set the perfect scene for what turned out to be a thrilling day on the rostrum, with bidding action flowing seamlessly between the packed hall and online participants from around the world. The magnificent castle backdrop added an extra dimension of prestige to proceedings, creating an atmosphere that perfectly complemented the exceptional vehicles on offer.
Lot 49 – the 2015 Rolls-Royce Wraith – captured serious attention from the moment it rolled into view, and rightly so. Offered with no reserve, this modern Rolls Royce masterpiece represented a rare opportunity for collectors to acquire one of the marque’s most dramatic models without the safety net of a reserve price. The bidding was intense and competitive, with enthusiasts both in the hall and online recognising the exceptional value proposition. When the hammer finally fell at £78,750 (Inclusive of Buyer’s Premium), it represented a fantastic result for the vendor and a well-deserved acquisition for the successful bidder who secured this magnificent example of contemporary British luxury.
Working with Hampson Auctions at such a prestigious venue continues to be a highlight of my auctioneering calendar. The combination of Bolesworth Castle’s grandeur, perfect September weather, and quality consignments creates the ideal environment for achieving strong results. The multi-channel bidding approach ensured maximum exposure for standout lots like the NO RESERVE Rolls Royce Wraith, while the no-reserve strategy generated the kind of competitive excitement that brings out the best in any auction. Days like these remind me why I love working in the classic car auction world – connecting exceptional vehicles with passionate collectors in truly memorable settings.
