The owner of the garage in Nieuwoudtsville wants to sell his whole bike collection of 300 bikes.

I need a mere R 8 000 000 please!!!

I know there is one Vellocette that is the only one left in the world after the only other one burned to ashes when the museum burned down
in Londen.

Anyone?

OK make it R 10 000 000 I need to put up a barn to display them in.

250 of these bikes do actually run.

On a serious note. Any idea what the market value would be of the collection. Assuming say sold on an auction one at a time in the USA or UK? Such auctions would probably have to be done over a period of 2 or so years. Please state in Rand and currency speculation is another ball game. BTW I am good for R8.00 Just a few zeros missing

it was 10 minutes from the Birmingham Airport, so when flying out of there, I would use up my "traffic" buffer hour often wandering around there. 😎

Any pics of the collection?

Casting from Turd · « **Reply #10 on:** August 30, 2015, 01:13:10 pm »

also want to see

I may be sticking my head out here, but that is a stiff amount for what Thinus has in his collection. All unrestored, which while it is what restorers prefer, means that
the bulk of the expenses are still waiting.
There is a 350 Yamaha aircooled twin there that I would like, and a Kawasaki S2 350 triple.

That Vellocette with the black helmet on is worth a lot of money on auction.

And there up against the wall is my first bike. The fast, ferocious, widowmaker the Honda SS 50

KarooKid · « **Reply #16 on:** August 30, 2015, 03:41:07 pm »

I remember way back that Thinus said that collection was his Pension.

Why is he selling?

The Velocette's value I do not know, but there were no really special bikes when I looked at his collection, but there is a few cars as well.

If it's R2M for the bikes only, then he is looking for roughly R40000 per bike.

Dan my vingers is stomp waar dit by somme kom , maar as jy R 8 000 000 deel deur 300 bikes is dit R 26 000+ n bietjie per bike of is ek verkeerd?
