Oliver Godfrey, Head of the Machinery Department at Cheffins comments: “The Harrogate Sale has always been a key date in the vintage and classic calendar and attracts enthusiasts from well over Europe. Whilst offering collectors a mid-show season opportunity to pick up new kit, the sale also provides a fantastic day out. We expect buyers to be particularly interested in the Titan tractor, as it is a rare and fabulously maintained example, which has been in the hands of some of the most well-known collectors on the circuit. We look forward to seeing buyers old and new at the sale, and also are offering online bidding throughout the tractor and vehicle section. There will also be a number of vehicles, bygones, collectors’ items, stationary engines and implements available.”
The sale will take place on 20th August from 10.30am at The Great Yorkshire Showground, Harrogate, North Yorkshire, HG2 8NZ.
