However, Brightwell's Modern Classics is not only about expensive cars. The auction offered a Toyota MR2, sold for, a 1998 BMW Z3 1.9 that went for £2,000, a 2002 BMW Z3 2.8 6-speed manual sold for £4,600 and a 51,000-mile Volvo C70 convertible, offered at No Reserve that sold for £1,980 on the hammer.

A 1987 Ford Fiesta XR2 made an amazing £7,200; about what it would have cost new.

A smart, low mileage, late model Bentley Brooklands attracted much interest with numerous commission bids battling it out with bidders in the room to make a healthy £11,880. 

A year 2000 BMW E39 M5 sold for £8,000.

A 1991 TVR V8S made £11,000.

And a 1984 300ZX 3.0 targa sold for £4,840, almost double what the vendor expected.

Some of the cars entered are still being sold under negotiation.

A black SAAB 9000 Aero by Abbott Racing sold a couple of days after the sale for £4,400 plus commission, along an Aston Martin DB7 Vantage Volante that  made £24,750 despite being recorded as a cat-D write off some years ago. 

Almost 70% of the 77 vehicles on offer were successfully hammered away to give a sale total of just under £417,000.
