Despite the time of turmoil in which we find ourselves, the classic car market soldiers on and auctions continue to take place. It is important then if you have an interest in classic automobiles to keep your finger on the pulse, and there is no better way to do this than by that invaluable reference and resource, the Classic Car Yearbook produced by Historica Selecta. The 25th Edition of the Classic Car Auction Yearbook will be launched at Auto e Moto d’Epoca at the Padua Exhibition Centre on October 22nd, and as the official distributor for the tome in Australasia I am taking advance orders. 

This year’s edition, 416 pages and 960 photographs, the most extensive to date, covers the most important international auctions from 1st September 2019 until 31st August 2020. The 2019-2020 edition covers 5,066 cars listed (among 335 different makes) by chassis number, auction result in euro, US$ and Sterling, a concise history of the car and the price achieved. Enhanced with commentary provided by the department heads of the leading auction houses, this Yearbook has numerous graphs and stats providing in depth analysis of the market, leading makes and the most significant models. The 25th edition also contains a special 54 page section looking back at the previous editions – did you know for instance that in 1994 you could buy a Lamborghini Miura for 49,000 euro and a Dino 246 GT for just 30,000! Or that in 1995 a Ferrari 250 GT Cabriolet cost just 79,000 euro!
