Bonhams has been appointed by Corgi to sell its archive of coveted prototype and “Number One” vehicles. The unique auction will take place on 3 October 2007 at Bonhams’ Knowle salerooms in Solihull, West Midlands.

With over 500 lots for sale the stars of the auction will be the “Number One” models” and collectors will be given the unprecedented opportunity of bidding for classic die cast model cars.

Corgi will also make one very special lot available at Bonhams’ auction. The “Corgi Golden One” lot will guarantee the successful bidder the “Number One” model from every Corgi Collector die-cast to be released in 2008, comprising over 350 models delivered direct to their door - all certified as the “Number One” of each release. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to create a unique collection.

Sale catalogues listing all of the Corgi items to be sold by Bonhams, cost £15 each plus postage and packaging. To order a copy, please call Bonhams’ Catalogue Subscriptions on +44 (0)1666 502 200, or email: subscriptions@bonhams.com
