Mr King added: “This sale also includes a comprehensive pick of classic motorbikes, which are continuing to rise in value in line with popularity amongst both collectors and those looking for something special to ride.

“The July auction ought to draw crowds both from the local area and further afield, whilst options for online and phone bidding have also made the July sales an option for buyers based overseas.”
