The auction got off to a relatively strong start, with most lots hitting their target price, and some early lots even exceeding this. 328 FER, with a target price of £2,500-£4,000 went under the hammer for £9,000, and 280 SE (guide price £2,500-£4,000) sold for £11,500.

COL 1E, with a guide price of £2,000-£4,500, went for £10,000, whilst F1 SHY sold for £14,500 - obliterating its target price of £2,750-£4,500.

SON 1A sold for £22,000, whilst JAN 1E and JAK 1E sold for £24,000 and £23,000 respectively. However, the star of the show was TEN 15, selling for £28,000 - much higher than the £8,000-£15,000 estimate.
