Upcoming previews for Classic Car Auctions in June: An assortment of vintage automobiles will be on display and sold at competitive bids.
Blast from the Past at CCA's Memorial Sale
Gear up for an emotional yet exhilarating automotive extravaganza as Classic Car Auctions (CCA) pulls out all the stops for their sale at the inaugural Wheeler Dealer Live event at Bicester Motion on June 1. The event will be a poignant tribute to the souls lost in the tragic fire at the venue.
Viewing will be accessible during the event's opening hours, as well as the Saturday afternoon prior. Following the unfortunate incident, CCA has confirmed that the sale, along with Wheeler Dealer Live, will proceed with some adjustments.
The event will serve as a heartfelt tribute to the departed souls. To honor their memory, a series of commemorative acts have been planned:
- A solemn three-minute silence at 11:00 am, echoing across the venue
- A charity auction, with the collected funds evenly divided between The Fire Fighters Charity and a charity picked by David Chester's family
- A tranquil remembrance area, offering space for quiet reflection and a chance to pay homage
- Iconic Auctioneers contributing 50% of their catalogue sales, along with two Silverstone Festival tickets in August
- Additional tributes are under discussion with the Fire and Rescue Service and the affected families
