SOLD AT THIS AUCTION HOUSE
The highlight of Westenhanger Auctioneers July 2015 sale was this stunning V12 2 + 2 series 3 E-Type Jaguar in Royal Blue. Having been owned by the client for the past 25 years and only covering under 50,000 miles from new this lot was sure to attract a huge amount of interest.
After many viewings, and with interest from Holland, Australia, Belgium and all over the UK this classic beauty went under the hammer with Principal Auctioneer Michael Hogben conducting the sale.
After a lengthy bidding frenzy between three phone bidders and bidding in the room the car sold to a collector for £37,000 plus 20% buyers premium. The owner was extremely pleased with the result, speaking after the sale he said "I'm so thrilled that the car has gone to someone who will get as much enjoyment from it as I have over the past two and a half decades. Michael and his team did such a great job at promoting the car, arranging viewings etc and I would highly recommend them to anyone who has a rare or classic vehicle to sell"

Westenhanger Auctions and Michael Hogben offer a quick and thorough valuation service for the purpose of Probate and Inheritance Tax with a sensitive approach. Liaising directly with Executors, or Solicitors, we provide professional, comprehensive valuations to ameliorate the Probate process. The Company works with a number of local Solicitors and undertakes an increasing amount of work for private individuals who are Executors. This situation can frequently cause issues within a family, or other interested parties, and can so often be resolved by the advice of a professional Valuer. Whether is a complete house clearance, or merely to look at a couple of items such as jewellery or a painting, our visit is FREE.
Please contact us to arrange an appointment 0777 999 5117 or 01303 813545
We can also provide other valuations for situations such as Probate Family Division or sales by Private Treaty, and Insurance Valuations
Pre sale cash advance on certain Lots
It happens to us all at some stage - we don't quite budget our income as well as we should, and then find ourselves short of cash. There may still be payments due to come out of a bank account or a special occasion is around the corner. With a cash advance we can put all these worries to one side and make those necessary payments and special purchases. Advance payments can be made on gold, jewellery and silver, and up to 40% on other selected Lots.
A pre-sale advance is a quick solution to a short term financial crisis.
House Clearance
Hot Line 07779 995117
10.00am until 5.00pm on Monday to Saturday
Clearing a property can be an exhausting and stressful experience. We can provide valuations for auction followed by a full house clearance. It can be surprising what items are saleable, and, having a valuer visit the premises to list the items of value allows family members and interested parties to make decisions about what items to sell or keep. Once items have been consigned for auction we are able to offer a full clearance service leaving the property empty, swept and hoovered and ready for Estate Agents, or the next occupants.
Please contact us for further information, advice or to make an appointment for a no obligation valuation.
