Silverstone Auctions has added The Warwickshire Collection of 21 classics and modern classics to its forthcoming sale on 31 July–1 August. It’s an eclectic line-up taken from the collection, so scroll down to read all of that.

The final line-up for the sale comes in an impressive 263 lots to be sold over two days. Click on the links above to see everything on sale. The Warwickshire Collection is the latest addition to the sale, with 21 cars. Each one was part of a larger and more significant collection.

From the collection are five glorious Citroens including the 1970 Citroën DS21 Decapotable Coachwork by Henri Chapron (above). This one was sold new to Germany and had two owners prior to coming over to the UK where it gained an MoT in 2007. It then went to Hungary for a short while before coming back to the UK in late 2009. A fabulous and elegant car that will require commissioning.

There’s also a fascinating 1953 Allard P2 Safari Estate. Only 10 Safari Estates produced and now it is thought there may only be four left in existence. During its lifetime, this Safari has had a number of long-term owners and in the 1980s had some restoration work. When the car was fully restored it was finished in Bronze which has subsequently been changed to a more appropriate colour of British Racing Green. Estimated at £45,000 to £55,000 this is a lovely piece of British motoring history.

Nick Whale, Silverstone Auctions Managing Director said: ‘We have had a tremendous response to this auction with more than 200 cars consigned including three collections. The cars offered in the Warwickshire Collection is possibly one of the most eclectic, you have the five Citroens, four Bentleys, a couple of current Rolls-Royces, a several lovely Alvis models’
