AUCTIONEERS in Cornwall have enjoyed a busy March and April so far, selling a diverse array of lots to happy new owners both in the South West and further afield.

Popular classic and vintage vehicles command strong prices at auctions

Edward Buckland Limited, based in Truro, kicked off the spring calendar with their March online auction on Thursday, March 27 and Friday, March 28, showcasing more than 1,100 lots across multiple categories.

Among the standouts were a selection of “exceptionally well-presented” classic and vintage lorries, all maintained to an “impeccable” standard by the vendor.

“These iconic vehicles, cherished for their history and craftsmanship, found new homes across the UK, continuing their legacy in the hands of passionate collectors and enthusiasts,” a spokesperson for the firm of chartered surveyors, auctioneers, valuers and land agents said.
