Anglia Car Auctions has made significant in-roads into the UK classic car auction sector in recent years. It hosts five sales a year, and currently holds the record for the UK’s biggest one-day sale with more than 20 cars going under the hammer at its June 2015 auction.

Starting out as a general car auction business in 1995, the company held its first dedicated classic sale in 2005, initially focussing on the budget sector of the market with a no frills, low buyer’s premium set-up. However, Anglia’s classic car auctions have expanded to include higher-value cars alongside starter classics and projects.

Unusually among UK classic car auctions, cars are driven through when able to move under their own power. Anglia still maintains its low-cost no-frills approach, with no glossy printed catalogue, but with car details posted online and on vehicle windscreens.

The buyer’s premium, currently at 5%, is the lowest in the UK classic car auction sector.

A recent development is the addition of separate classic motorcycle auctions.
