Charterhouse Auctioneers have been instructed to sell a collection of classic cars on site at West Pennard, Somerset, on Thursday 21st August.

“It is a fantastic collection of cars including Aston Martin, Rolls Royce, Bentley, Jaguar, Range Rover and other prestige marques through to a Kaiser-Willys Jeep painted in Khaki green complete with an ammunition trailer!” Commented Matthew Whitney.”The client has been a regular buyer at our classic car auctions over the past 12 years, and has now decided to have a change of direction and instructed us to sell the collection at short notice on site at West Pennard near Glastonbury.”

Also carrying the same estimate is an Aston Martin DB4.
