If you are considering purchasing a classic car whether it is your first time of doing so or if you are a seasoned classic car enthusiast why not consider taking a look at Mathewsons Classic Car auction that is scheduled to take place online on the 22nd and 23rd August 2026. It is an online auction but you can view vehicles “in the flesh” at the Pickering showroom of the auctioneers on either the 15th, 17th or 18th August 2026. Pickering is located on the North Yorkshire Moors so why not consider taking a few days holiday to enjoy the countryside and also try to get over to the coast and visit places such as Filey.

You can view the lots on the auctioneer’s website but we thought that we would briefly mention just a few to perhaps “wet your appetite”.
