Silverstone Auctions returns to Stoneleigh Park for the third year this weekend (22 February) to host its biggest ever Race Retro auction, with more than 100 classic cars and motor cycles on offer. As you'd expect for the venue, it's heavy on competition cars, but there are also more than a few fascinating road cars on offer.
As usual, we've highlighted 10 entries that might not be capturing the headlines, but are hidden gems the catalogue for those looking for something perfect to enjoy during the classic season. We've already highlighted some of the more interesting cars in the sale, such as Ayton Senna's Honda NSX and Stephen Ward's Jaguar XK, so here are 10 that we just couldn't resist previewing. The sale commences on Saturday 22 February with Lots 401-653 offered on Sunday 23 February. More at www.silverstoneauctions.com
BMW Z1
£18,000-22,000
It's interesting to see that Silverstone describes the Z1 as a car that's, 'starting to show potential as a real collector's car for the Zunkuft (future).' We'd say that the future has arrived, and when it comes to a car like the Z1, it was a classic the moment it rolled off the production line. This one's a good example, with typically low miles - 35,000, with full service history. It's up-to-date on its belts and fluids, and comes with plenty of history to keep you amused until the weater gets better.
