Classic Car Auction Yearbook<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Dr. Orsi and Mr. Gazzi have an enviable skill for considering vast amounts of data on the $1.2 billion-plus annual collector car market, presenting it in salient graphs and each year coming up with new and insightful ways to make sense of it. Even more remarkably they make reading about it enjoyable and easy to understand.<\/p>\n

The Classic Car Auction Yearbook 2015-2016<\/em> includes results from 107 individual auctions in the U.S., the U.K, Europe, Australia and the Far East. That number is, as anyone paying attention would expect, up substantially from the 94 auctions in the previous<\/a> Yearbook. Similarly, the current Yearbook describes 5,644 individual transactions, up from 5,154 last year.<\/p>\n

The Yearbook\u2019s \u2018year\u2019 runs from September 1 through August 31, as it has since 2012-2013, so it can include the all-important transactions from the Monterey Week, comprising something like 3\/10ths of the entire year\u2019s transaction values. The authors take pains to point out:<\/p>\n

\u2018[I]t is important to note that the Monterey auctions do influence the market, but that they are not \u2018the market\u2019: the results achieved there are not reproducible anywhere else, and represent a unique moment in the course of the year.\u2019<\/p>\n

The Authors\u2019 Comment takes particular note of declining sale rates, which dropped 6 points from 78% last year to 72% in 2015-2016. Declines were noted in all three major auction markets, U.S., U.K., and Europe.<\/p>\n

Looking at auction results in aggregate, parsed into separate categories for analysis, as the Classic Car Auction Yearbook<\/em> does, puts trends into perspective sometimes lost in the hype of $20 and $30 million individual cars that seem to be going nowhere but up in value.<\/p>\n

Over time it is true that values appreciate, something apparent in the Yearbook\u2019s annual graphic treatment of ten individual cars with two or more auction transactions over ten or more years. Most of their transaction value graphs slope steeply up; except for the Austin-Healey 3000 MK III Phase 2 (s\/n HBJ8L41566) that sold for more US$ in 2003 than it did in 2016.<\/p>\n

Look for even more informative graphs of paired transaction in next year\u2019s edition when the US$, GB\u00a3 and EEC\u20ac traces stand a good chance of crossing as the number of dollars neede<\/p>\n

d to buy a \u00a3 or a \u20ac goes down.<\/p>\n

Pervading the 2015-2016 Yearbook is the notion (and the historic track) of weakening, if not moderately declining, transaction values. It gets the authors\u2019 attention:<\/p>\n

\u2018As the underlying law of supply and demand operates in the collector car market, last season many players (whether collectors or investors) decided to take advantage of the high level of prices achieved in order to try to sell their own cars, but it seems they did not find enough buyers, or, at least, not at the price they expected.\u2019<\/p>\n

That observation was echoed in three of the auction companies\u2019 market analysis comments that lead off the Yearbook.<\/p>\n

Matthieu Lamoure, Artcurial Motorcars:
\n\u2018For the first time in 15 years of continually rising prices [of mass production models], this sudden rise has halted, affecting those who have entered the market uninformed, hoping to profit from an easy investment and make a quick buck. These speculators have been punished for not buying with their heart.\u2019<\/p>\n

Philip Kantor, Bonhams Europe:
\n\u2018Not everything is selling at vendor\u2019s expectations of tomorrow\u2019s prices to impatient buyers trying to jump on the band wagon \u2026. This stabilization is truly good news not only for real enthusiasts but also [for] the market\u2026.\u2019<\/p>\n

Peter Wallman, RM Sotheby\u2019s Europe:
\n\u2018Cars that have regularly traded hands, and\/or were mass-produced are seeing a \u2013 possibly overdue \u2013 market correction\u2026. [T]his is good news and suggests that the market is stabilising and maturing.<\/p>\n

Other observations noted the increasing importance, and values, of late model supercars and their more recent hypercar successors.<\/p>\n

Matthieu Lamoure:
\n\u2018The 2016\/2016 season has also seen increased demand for more recent models. \u2026 This rise is explained by the fact that buyers are younger than ever before, and are buying the car of their dreams earlier than preceding generations.\u2019<\/p>\n

Philip Kantor:
\n\u2018What this shows us is a clear generational trend to the best examples with the most interesting specification in what some call the youngtimer category\u2019<\/p>\n

Peter Wallman:
\n\u2018Worthy of mention is the ongoing rise of modern supercars. Limited, low-production examples from the [19]80s-2000s are now particularly in demand.\u2019<\/p>\n

But in the end it is the 327 pages of individual auction transaction reports that confer the most value, and support the various conclusions and inferences.<\/p>\n

Arranged by Marque, Model and Transaction date there is perhaps no better way to gain a sense of the way individual marques and models are valued by collectors than in the 2015-2016 Yearbook\u2019s auction season results which since the 2012-2013 edition have included references to prior transaction in the same car (as identified by chassis number). Price Guides are useful references but for serious buyers who wish to be informed there is no better way to scope out value perceptions and trends than in these easy-to-read and sequentially-organized pages.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also illuminating to discover obscure but interesting marques (APAL, Grosser Werkmeister, La Buire, Matford, Mecca, Newton Bennett (a Ceirano sold in the U.K.) and many more) that pepper the pages.<\/p>\n
