Greenwich Stream Time Success96% SALE RATE FOR BONHAMS MOTOR CAR AUCTION

A matching numbers and restored 1966 Aston Martin DB6 Vantage Sport Saloon led the way in Bonhams Greenwich Concours d'Elegance Online Auction, flying past its pre-sale estimate to sell for $500,000 in the digital sale which achieved an impressive 96% sell-through rate and a total of more than $4.3 million.

Of the ten top lots, eight surpassed their pre-sale estimates, including a 6,000-miles from new 2008 Porsche GT3RS Coupé, which achieved $313,000; a 1978 Aston Martin V8 Vantage 'Molded Fliptail' Coupé, one of only 11 US-specification examples, which made $246,400, with both topping their high estimates by nearly $100,000.

Other strong performers included a 1960 Aston Martin DB2/4 MkIII Saloon selling for $224,000, a 1965 Bentley S3 Continental Flying Spur which realised $201,600, while a 1989 Aston Martin Lagonda Series IV Saloon, which had covered just over 2,000 miles from new, made $145,600, double its pre-sale estimate.
